Not everyone lives in an area where bikes are feasible.
I am a 66 year old American. I have no guns. The only time I have seen or operated one was when I was in the Navy in the early 1980s. I have seen the damage that guns can do several times in the 30 years I have been working as a child protective service caseworker/supervisor.
Someone has it in for me over there. I have been temporarily banned twice in the last several months. It's insane. I think I am done with that site.
The entire internet has become a toxic mess.
Not a genocide. It's war.
Not going to buy an EV. No charging stations nearby. Can't install a charging station where I live. I probably have 10 years of driving left so I will stick with an ICE.
I will always vote Democrat.
I will never vote for any republican as long as I live. Haven't done so in quite a few years.
Never used it. Never plan to do so.
Yes I agree. A coordinated approach at all state capitals and Washington, DC would probably have more impact. This is where the people who care about reelected live and work.
Road to Perdition has some of the best cinematography I have ever witnessed.
I love my crocs and wear them during the warm months of the year.
They are also not good in the rain.
I wear socks with them and give them a good soapy wash frequently. Never had any smell issues.
They are great for traveling. They pack well and are easy going through security. Last year in Aruba I was pulled aside for secondary screening and they took my crocs to dust for explosives. I thought that was odd. I would never think of putting explosives in a pair of holey shoes lol.
I consider myself well educated but never knew anything about this. Hope you find it enlightening!
I recently watched the following program on PBS: Nazi Town, USA which described the rise of fascism in America at the same time as the Nazis in Germany. It was an eye opening experience and one that has a hauntingly similar essence to our current situation in the USA.
I started a facebook account in 2006 and stopped using it a few years later. I still have an account but only look at it maybe 2 or 3 times a year.
I hate when I have to log in to find a business though. It 's infuriating.
And I hate reddit with the glare of a thousand suns.
Yes! My ex and I used to build all kinds of computers back then. Of course they used to blow up rather quickly. It was a slog trying to figure out where I left off once I got up and running again. Shopping - I bought all kinds of stuff on the internet back then lol. Enough said.
I met so many interesting people that way. And I loved the creativity of their blogs. It's gone like the corner candy store (which I actually remember).
There are still some forums around but they are usually very niche. I frequent a few especially when I get banned from Reddit lol.
Crazy times indeed. My cousin brought home an Egyptian guy she met on the internet in the early 2000s. Turned out to be just fine but it seemed sketchy at the time.
It's amazing how quickly we adapt and forget. But when I stop and think about it life was so different before Covid and it's just never been the same. My workplace has just never been able to adjust to the staffing shortages and it's hell.
