When Kennedy and Nixon debated in 1960, their surviving parents watched at home. And those parents were younger in 1960 than either Trump or Biden were in 2020.

Gonna argue Lyon's the Philadelphia of France: second biggest city, at the confluence of two rivers, founded _well_ before Paris, yet still a massive second-city complex. French labor movement took off the amongst the weavers, and during WWII it was central to the resistance.

I was flying out of JFK about 10 years ago and had to mail a letter. Couldn't find a mailbox, so I asked an officer. He looked at me with revulsion and said nothing. I repeated myself, and this guy said "You ever heard of 9/11?"
I found the box on my own about 10 minutes later.

I would start by perceiving a difference between civil disorder aimed at stopping a presidential succession, and civil disorder aimed at disrupting university classes in pursuit of promoting a political cause.
We can agree both are not great, without equating the seriousness.

Part of my family moved from Germany to southern Russia in the late 1700s, and lived ~5 generations speaking German in their ethnic enclave.
They moved to Denver, and were English-speaking Americans within 20 years.

This reminds me of my favorite story from my time working for The Press of Atlantic City.
Trump's four casinos were major advertisers, in addition to major circulation drivers.
In the 1990s, upset with coverage of Marla Maples etc, Trump complained and whined to the editors.

I think of the species of trees still with us in North America that are evolutionary anachronisms because the animals that ate their fruit and spread their seeds went extinct more or less after humans arrived on the scene, e.g. Osage Orange, honey locusts and American persimmons.
I think lots of people imagine prehistoric life with the current level of nonhuman life

Don't know how recent this is or where you live, but in most states, the state Department of Labor is a good place to raise these concerns. There are laws on the books about this in many states, but there is no law without enforcement.

Absolutely.
The New Sweden colony lent her name to the Christina River, and for some reason the later Dutch and English tacked on the -ana to the adjacent region. It was still mostly farms when the mall went up in 1979, but that's changed, of course.
