Uhh... that’s exactly what the post was saying.

I see. You only care about how you feel, not about how the content creator feels.

So if value is irrelevant, whoever created the content should just be happy with selling 1 copy, because that person can turn around and give it to everyone for free if they want?

So in your mind, only the very first digital copy of something has value?

I learned something new. Thanks!

Joel’s hoody seemed out of place as well. Did they have hooded sweatshirts back then?

Except that the conventional wisdom or as you say the “districts being what they are” needs to be flat out ignored and she’s not doing that. The argument that I think Ron is making is that it’s easier to increase turnout than it is to flip folks to your side. They way to increase turnout is to champion popular

I think I do too, but a secret vote could backfire. If it does happen, pay attention to who makes it happen, Schumer or McConnell, because you can be assured that the votes would not be secret to them.

It’s possible enjoy these dumps, and support private space travel.

I think the hot take here would be that Bloomberg is secretly way more left than anyone thought and this is his way of helping Sanders and/or Warren. If I assume Bloomberg is not an idiot, it’s the only thing that makes sense to me. Maybe he’s just an idiot.

Dolly Parton is the only one I can think of.

Maybe a callback to Mindy St. Claire’s whole situation? She got credit for a good deed not totally implemented yet.

Which is extra hilarious when you find out Ted’s real name is Rafael.

But that time would pass in a blink (to you), so... win?

I agree the 12 hour clock is dumb and should go away (I probably should have made that clear in my question). But it’s not going away - which you seem to also agree on. So as an American I’m not getting away from it - so I speculated on one of the reasons it’s dumb, and the AM/PM thing is what I came up with.

So why does it exist?

AM and PM do not exist on the 24 hour clock. This is not about the 24 hour clock.

Letter writer here. Thank you - That was basically my (correctly-assessed) half of a point. Maybe I should have phrased my question as... “If we were deciding to to the AM/PM thing today - would we still have done it the way it is?”

Letter writer here. Way to miss the point of the comment. I’m not unaware or unaware of 24 hour time. That would also be simpler, and I have no problem using the system we currently use. I have no idea who actually came up with AM/PM - but they did it wrong.

There is not just one Kennedy who was assassinated.
