I agree. The options at the voting center are rarely great. Action is certainly better.

But getting off the sofa to vote for the least-evil option is critical. Especially in the primaries and mid-terms. Vote. Every. Time. Vote for dog-catcher, school boards etc.

If you're young it's even more important.

Not sure I agree. Obamacare is better than then nothing-burger that was available before if you didn't get healthcare through an employer. Biden is trying to at least get some student loan relief through congress. Getting the right people elected to state governments can help make abortions available again in some states. (If you're a right-wing person then choose the opposite topics for your examples.)

People who are defeatist about voting come across as complainers who are too lazy to get off their butts to help.

Vote. Every. Time.

I just built a website that makes it easy to find and stream community radio stations (which you refer to as 'donation funded') There are over 100 stations listed. Just choose from a drop-down and hit 'play'. Looking for more beta testers https://AlternateAirwaves.com

Can you pick up any community radio in your area? We have one and every couple of hours it's a different type of music. Blues, Rock, Hip-Hop, Reggae etc. All music chosen by the person you hear on the air.

Yeah, the meme should have said "Pumpkin Ales" instead of "IPAs"

I work from home and don't want to go back into the office. But there are a few people on my team who are MAJOR sandbaggers who are going to ruin it for the rest of us. Pisses me off.

St. Louis metro area checking in. Long time Reddit user transitioning away from that site. IT guy. Older but not cantankerous (yet) : ) I like board games, playing and listening to music, hanging with the family, gadgets, Linux, 3D printing, homebrewing, blah blah blah.
