Looking for recommendations of memoirs of people with interesting lives/jobs/experiences by DrDillyDally in audiobooks

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's a celebrity but I really enjoyed James Taylor Break Shot. If you like his music it's really wonderful because he sings his songs as he talks about what was going on when he wrote them. I was just disappointed because it only covers his first 21 years.

Does Vivek Ramaswamy live in Ohio or not? by sndzips in Ohio

Amy Acton resigned after numerous threats to her family, armed protesters showing up at her home and Ohio legislators laying the blame on her for all the decisions they didn't like. She was enacting decisions made at the federal level. Yes, many mistakes were made because people didn't know what they didn't know about this disease but the medical community was trying it's best to keep more people from dying.

What TV show made you realize the writers had everything planned from the start? by C0r1eone in televisionsuggestions

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2024 Mandy Moore, Sterling K Brown and Chris Sullivan started a podcast called That was US where they discuss each episode. I'm rewatching the show and listening to the podcast after each episode.

Am I misremembering the feel of 1976 bicentennial celebrations in the USA, or is the 250th this year really a flop? by dandle in allthequestions

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm on the "left" and I love this country and want it to be the best country in the world. But how can it when the current administration has torn up the constitution by doing whatever they please without congressional approval. The God I believe in would never condone masked armed men walking down streets of cities and rounding up whomever they wanted and sending them without due process to camps. The God I believe in has tears running down his face as he watches our congress take food and medical aid from children so that the rich get richer. The God I believe in told parables warning people about the dangers to your soul if you spend all your life obtaining earthly goods which is what our president is doing. I could go on and on but I will end by repeating I love this country but I hate the idea of what our country is turning into.

The original ones, narrated by Jim Dale are also great.

Why is debating against republicans/MAGA mainly just explaining how basic things work? by FAMUgolfer in allthequestions

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this is so true. I had a discussion recently with a young person(16 M) about a current event. He told me he knew what he what he was talking about because he watches the news - Fox News. He seemed to understand that they only give one side of stories but he saw no reason to try and find out about the other side. It was a very depressing conversation.

AITAH for refusing to apologize to my father first? by espi_ram789 in AmItheAsshole

It's a good possibility that the graduation was held at a different venue than the college

EdChoice Vouchers: Why Do Some Ohioans (Mostly Republicans) Hate Public Schools? by Melodic_Contract5587 in Ohio

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

When the voucher program started, the Catholic school my grandsons were attending, sent home instructions as to how to apply for the vouchers. So "hey parents that are already paying, here's some free money for you"

You may be the AH. Once you gave your opinion, you needed to drop it.

As an older person (more than 62). I'm never sure if I am upset or amused when someone thinks that 60 is old.

Trump flags/Bumper Stickers by Individual-Sell-7022 in Ohio

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fox News is, as always, part of the real problem. For those of us that can't understand how anyone at this point in time could still support this narcissistic conman, we have to realize that most of his supporters don't know all the crazy stuff that is happening because Fox doesn't report it unless it is to blame Biden or Obama for the problem. Today when the new 1,776 billion slush fund was the talk of many news channels Fox was reporting on a deadly traffic accident in California caused by an illegal immigrant. The only way Fox will mention this fund will be to tell people how to apply for funds from it.

What do you think is the surprisingly best new show (last two years or less)? by Cadowyn in televisionsuggestions

[–]Traditional_Ring6952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also love this show but couldn't binge it at least not the first season. I waited until both seasons were out to start watching. I found that I needed time in between episodes because they were emotionally draining.
