Reply to I enjoy new music. I assume I am of the minority in thinking that music is constantly improving, and the previous decade was the best decade of music in history. Thoughts? by TofuVic
I think you'd have a hard time convincing the larger group of people that it is "improving". But it is changing, and that is a constant going back eons. And that change tends to reflect trends popular with youth, although an argument could be made that youth automatically embraces new over old, meaning that the trend tracks in the other direction.

And I'm betting you are going to reelect the party of the current insurance commissioner again.

People.just can't seem to make that cause and effect connection for some reason.

Bye! Don't let the door, and all that.
Only people leaving are the children terrified of opinions that don't match theirs. No adults, anywhere, care.

Credit where it's due, sort of.
It took 2 hours. I've spent much less time at Disney, and got more for my money. But, happy wife happy life.

Reply to Ted Koppel, 1980. Nightline started as a daily update during the Iran hostage crisis. In the decades after Walter Cronkite retired, Koppel continued the practice of thorough, factual reporting. by L0st_in_the_Stars
Koppel wasn't bad, but he was no Cronkite. He allowed the opinions of the network executives to influence his reporting, something, as far as anyone has ever been able to tell, Walter never allowed.

Your sole option is to replace the people in power who allow this to continue.
If you don't demand a change at the ballot box you have absolutely no cause to complain.
Remember In November - ABD. Anybody But Democrats.

I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Even though this state is so stupid they keep electing the same party over and over, all while the economy and every benchmark of successful living continue to spiral down the toilet, I will be able to hold my head straight and say "Don't blame me"

She argues a politically driven 'maybe', he argues facts.
People who don't vote for facts get what they deserve.
"Hayes, seeking her third term, said Logan, a former state senator, would join a conservative caucus with plans to further curtail women's reproductive rights and threaten Social Security and Medicare. She worked to portray him as someone from outside the district who was ousted from the state legislature after two terms and is now the recipient of millions of dollars in advertising from conservative leaders.
Logan focused on the economy and inflation.
"Connecticut's economy is shrinking under the Biden-Harris administration," Logan said. "Connecticut's personal income growth: worst in the nation. We can do better, but we won't under the current administration.""

They carved out an exception for themselves in junk call/junk text laws.
I've never understood why they think I would reward then with a vote after they intentionally ignore my Do Not Call list status. Seems pretty ignorant.
