The existential dread from the past is the same existential dread of today. We also do not know how things might turn out.

His behavior during the NABJ interview was classic Donny: a narcissist doing everything he could to deflect and avoid been held to account for his prior words/behavior.

Just happened that he let his racism shine through as he tried to worm his way out. Which shows how cognitively impaired he is.

I agree, but this dumpster fire is burning inside the US government. It's going to take some critical stuff with it as it burns itself out. :(

I love AntennnaPod - except when I'm in the car. It doesn't have Android Auto support.

My parents adopted a quirky cat that seems to have had some past trauma. She's finally getting more friendly and less skiddish - AFTER FOUR YEARS.

Sometimes it's just love and time that helps them get over past trauma.

I think it's far less invasive to setup a Linux VM that can be thrown away vs. setting up dual booting.

With Hyper-V or Virtualbox the OP can have a Linux distribution installed and booting very quickly without fear of disrupting his current Windows installation.

Not OP, but possibly the Kent State massacre was the watershed event that shifted US public opinion about the war.

16+ years. Learned about it from Joel Spolsky's blog.

I pretty much agree 100% with your characterization of the decline and your overall experience.

I also hadn't realized how dysfunctional Reddit had become or how much I'd tried to adapt to that dysfunction.
