Can be from fandoms, local acquaintances, niche community forums, social media bubbles, whatever. What’s a big to-do going on that you just don’t care about?

      Since any US elections always have huge impacts world wide, I’d say that this one, unfortunately, is something everyone should have an opinion about. Not for wanting, just for… Just because the US is a shithole hell bent on ensuring that everyone lives in a shithole

      Believe me I got better things to do but unfortunately the US just won’t stop ruining my day, every day, somehow

    Anything Prince Harry and Megan Markle related. Just like the Konstant Kardashian onslaught, I turn away.

      Apparently there used to be Halloween packs of Pokemon cards that my friend would give out for trick or treaters, I don’t know the details if they were cheaper or smaller than a regular pack or just Halloween-themed, or what exactly their deal was, I just know that they’re a thing that exists

      By they couldn’t get their hands on them this year. I don’t know if they discontinued them, or if someone snatched them all up, but in either case I’m pretty sure the current pokemon card investment bullshit is to blame.

      And I think that’s a real shame, it sounds like a fun thing to give out or at least have as an option for the kids that are into pokemon, and probably appreciated by kids who maybe have food allergies and such and cant really enjoy the candy everyone else is giving out.

    Apparently some big name YouTube guy cheated on his wife or something? I never heard of him before, but every site I go on keeps talking about it. Most I can say is “cheating is bad”. Is that having an opinion on it? Like I don’t really care what happens to them once everyone moves on in a few days.

      I can never be bothered with the YouTube drama. Stay out of the influence the channels and it’s actually quite good.

      Casein point I have loads of subscriptions to various channels on YouTube, literally hundreds of different content creators all producing different kinds of content. And I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.

      If someone gets a lot of YouTube drama and says they don’t want it, that’s on them and their subscription choices.

    As a non-American, the US midterms. If the Republicans win then nothing changes, if the Democrats win they’ll probably do jack shit like they always do and Trump will just ignore them anyway so it doesn’t really matter.

      Us elections are bizarre because the democrats could win but trump would still be president. What’s the point in potentially changing the government structure halfway through an election cycle, why do it like that?

      Just have an election and then that’s your government for the next four years. Then have another election and elect a different government or the same government.

        It’s not really intentional to change the structure of government, just the result of 2 year terms vs 4 year terms vs 6 year terms. But yeah, like everything else it really builds on the current government dysfunction

        Well it’s never been like this before. The election is staggered, I assume, to keep the government in check. It gives voters the chance to make corrections. But the founding fathers didn’t know that so many different portions of the government would cooperate. In short, voting in new people, should change the face of the government if that is the will of the people. As it turns out, it doesn’t. So no REAL change.
