| I just hope the next pope will actually be Catholic. Please, do go on... https://media1.tenor.com/m/ai5GINa0AkYAAAAC/michael-jackson-happy.gif Pope Francis was a public heretic. There's no viable way he can be considered a Catholic based on his words and actions. In order to be a legitimate Catholi... |

| The argument I'm making is that it wasn't compulsory to spend all your free time trawling record stores in order to come across a variety of music the way that it is now. Now, you can have whatever opinion of that you like, but you're being naive if you think the normies are spending large amounts ... |

| You're entitled to your opinion, but the fact that people can't remember without a playlist is pretty damning. And the fact there's a bunch of random music out there that exists is not the same thing as it being at all accessible. You didn't have to go on an expedition to find a variety of music in... |

That certainly seems to be the way it's going, especially in the US for federal elections. |

| Yes, but there was a lot of stuff that was memorable. The idea of needing your playlists to know what you were listening to just was not a thing in the past. You might forget a few songs, but you'd probably have a decent list you can remember. That's most certainly not the case now. Musical complex... |

| The bigger issue tends to be getting a 2nd date, or even standing out enough in the massive pile of messages that women are getting just to have somebody reading it. I would guess most guys can't even fathom the attention women get on dating apps (or in real life). It is so unlike what we experienc... |

| I don't listen to a lot of newer music, although I don't think older music is inherently better. There was a lot of terrible older music too, it's just easier to forget about and it's more likely to be rehabilitated through the lens of nostalgia. Most pop music in particular is disposable garbage a... |

| No, I would never sell my right to vote. People get that wrong. In the sense that you mean it, that's correct. You shouldn't be taking cash to vote for somebody or something that you wouldn't otherwise vote for. However, voting is supposed to be a selling of your vote for policies and politicians t... |

And When My Younger Sister Asks Me About If I Know A New Song That's Trendin... |

| To be fair, dating apps for dudes are unlikely to yield any sort of match anyway, unless you have 'something to offer' that is substantial. If you want to find a partner, the best way to do it would be to attend group activities, maybe join a walking club or something of that sort, or make friends ... |

| With the newly announced demise of the Pope, and considering the current world winds of politics blowing Right... which way do you think the new Pope will swing? I think he'll swing towards being Catholic. Personally, I'd like to see a DEI hire Pope. Perhaps one that actually cares about the Bible ... |

| There's degrees. I wasn't there, but it's completely possibly to be far too loud in the hall and then overdo it being quiet afterwards. And NTs seem to overestimate their ability to judge what's going on inside of people's brains based on body language. |

No, they never do. It's just a bunch of superstitious nonsense. But, they'll probably find something in order to justify making him a saint. |
