[All y'all] the misery of airport security theater

Alt Text: A man in a black shirt and black backward-facing ball cap is leaning against a porch railing overlooking a mowed lawn with a four-lane road and trees in the background. The text at the top says "I bring a sort of "breasts and a penis" vibe to the airport that the TSA body scanner don't really like"

I don't fly often but it may be getting better. 🤷‍♀️

Beginning in May 2022, TSA is also updating its screening procedures to better serve transgender, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming travelers through less invasive screening procedures for passengers who trigger the AIT scanner in a sensitive area. This change will reduce the number of pat downs for TSOs and the travelling public without compromising security, and will be in effect until the gender-neutral AIT screening technology is deployed.

So at least they know at an organizational level they have an issue.

Of course my view is they are a useless organization overall and locked cockpit doors do 99% of their jobs.

Now that the war is over maybe we can put the body scanners away again?
