Concur with you... And I live in CA where we do vote Democrat. While I would like to disagree, even Democrats I know veer away from politicians viewed as "too progressive". They fear that true progressive agendas would alienate others within politics and result in nothing getting accomplished. For example, some love the idea of Bernie but believe hes too idealistic, "wishy washy" and that his plans are too. Too much for others within Congress to get on board and ally on the goals. If this is already coming from some Democrats in CA, I'm not surprised by swing states....

I 100% believe you. We may not like the reality but its there.

Nurse manager. I browse when I wake and during dinner. Sometimes during work breaks. I don't really post. Mostly comment. Doesn't take long to comment

Do you play No Mans Sky alone or with friends? I picked it up for my deck but havent tried it out yet... Unfortunately one of the reasons why I have a deck is my PC can't handle some games

I bought Vampire Survivors since it was slightly discounted and have only heard rave reviews about it.... I sank 7 hours in my first day lol!!

Picked up all the DLCs too. Imo worth the money to support the developer

Maybe he can live on his own as he may still be independent with other activities of daily living like cooking, walking to the bathroom, be able to put on clothes, etc.

Not being able to drive is one thing but maybe there are food delivery services, Uber/Lyft/Taxis and other non medical transportation, and for medical emergencies Life Alert, Ambulances.

Just saying there is a lot we do not know.

Dungeon Crawler Carl 4, The Gate of the Feral Gods by Matthew Dinniman. Its just good fun and the sound effects are amazing. Though I think Carl sounds too old for a 27 year old.

It has also been a good break after Pet Sematary by Stephen King.

In addition to all the above, I found a weighed blanket really helped me. Make sure your room is very dark, pitch black. If it is not, upgrade your blinds or a sleep mask. I got one that's simple and cotton and it works wonders.

Now its winter I also have a heated blanket.

I'm really scared for future elections when the GOP has a candidate that is actually charismatic or articulate....

I went without Prime for >1 year. I just online shopped directly from manufacturer if I can and paid shipping if free shipping not available. I minimized use of amazon only if I had $35 in my cart for the free shipping.

However, I know I am privileged enough to do so.

I honestly would encourage everyone not to have Prime though. Its like what $150+ now for a year? Save that money and wait until your cart is $35. If you cannot wait, you can pay for shipping (assuming $7) x20+ times before you make up price of that $150 for Prime.
