Do people not already know this? Food delivery is the biggest ripoff in the modern economy. It deserves all the ire we give to printer ink.

I agree. But body cam footage is controlled by the cops, and rarely do we get it released unedited and in a timely manner.

Live streaming does nothing that sending a text while waiting for the officer to walk up to the car couldn’t do.

So I agree Christmas decorations shouldn’t be political (Halloween just happened, and tons of good opportunities for political decorations there), and I’m not saying you couldn’t go “over the top” with your religious decorations, but I actually love when holiday decorations are religious- I have a neighbor with a big…

And sure, if you are buying new lights it’s probably more “green” to buy LED lights, but there is no way you should throw away functional lights to replace them with LED.

Do most people not go for a walk with whoever you ate dinner with after dinner? I don’t want to eat and then just sit at the table for another hour or so. After we eat a nice meal, everyone at our table goes walking around the area, and maybe hopping into a bar or two while we’re at it.

“but some vegetables (and fruits we refer to as “vegetables”) don’t fare so well even with that extra step.”

Fandom sites are not a good measure of the general population. Battle of Five Armies, which I would say is the worst of the trilogy, has a 74% Audience Score.

The EU banned single use plastic bags on July 2, 2021. That’s a short decade.

My wife and I rib each other a lot- but never about something the other person is actually sensitive or has any self doubt about.

The “in the matters of taste” was not part of the original phrase, it has been added later. It was popularized at a different time- when it was more common that customer service was really poor. It was on contrast to “caveat emptor”.
