  • Both of your sentiments have truth to them. The solution is something like Ranked Choice Voting, no? Of course, we'd need enough representatives able and willing to implement that change.

  • I enjoyed both when they were still airing, but I can completely understand why people watching them today for the first time wouldn't. It's one of those, "you had to be there" kinda things. Just like I probably wouldn't enjoy watching The Beverly Hillbillies or I Love Lucy if I tried watching them today.

  • One of the things I miss the most about the 1900s is that people didn't expect you to be reachable 24/7. Even though cellphones had been around since the 80s very few people had one. That meant that most people could only be reached through the family landline. If you didn't answer people would just assume you were out of the house, thus unreachable. That all started to change in the 2000s when cellphones became common place. Now days I feel like everyone expects me to pick up when they call, and if I don't they expect a better excuse than "I don't feel like talking right now." As a very introverted person who often needs a lot of alone time, it sucks, and sometimes I really wish I could go back to a world without cellphones.

  • Interesting. Do you know why people collect them? Is it like a rabbits foot? Are there lucky raccoon penises out there?

  • 2022 RUBIO: This guy lies, habitually lies. He's never kept a deal they've ever signed. And he lies all the time. And I don't know why, but he plays us like a – like a violin in the West because the West wants to believe that you can cut a deal with everybody. You can't cut a deal with guys like this. He's a professional, experienced liar.

    At first, I wasn't sure who Rubio was referring to, orange man or Putin.
