This isn't news. I mean, even if it is just now true, the United States being a "Democratic Republic" that promised citizens the vote and then kept a body who basically sat around to subvert the popular vote when things got close was largely considered to be another aspect of the USA's rather f****d up interpretation of "freedom".

In 'Murica sitting is sloth, sloth makes you a degenerate, degenerates don't deserve to eat - unless you're a white collar worker, at which point standing makes you the office athlete or a tech sector worker.
Lol - yeah, that would suck!
I don't disagree with you at all, but the screenie was of a message addressing communication between people who are supposedly in an intimate conversation. One should hope that their conversations can be more substantive, personal, and easy-going in a romantic relationship.
Some ability to break ice with strangers using brief small talk is useful as a starting point for conversation, but if you truly know me, say what you need to say or enjoy the ASMR of my presence.
I think there's a misconception regarding what counts as small talk. "Bland conversation that has no real point but to escape silence" is small talk. Asking you how your day went because I care about you is not. "How's the weather?" is small talk. "How was your trip to the grocery?" is small talk. These are dumb things and, if your relationship can't bear the silence that would be interrupted because "The vegan sausages were on sale today", then it prolly doesn't need to exist.
Netflix is good streaming Gets expensive and sharing increases Banish Sharing and can't get more users Raises prices and won't get new users.
They would have been better off lowering the price by 10-20% after carrying out the ban to pick up many of the users they lost.
