Also, most importantly, Rod and Karen, thank you for this podcast and creating a space where listener feedback is welcome and a part of the show. I appreciate how close I was to getting the ‘hide from website’ treatment that the next responder got… *phew*.
I found y’all through For All Nerds and ever since all the other podcast I listen to have been very sad… and left in the queue.
Btw shout-out to Dems Abroad, I got my 87 year mum living oversea to vote early using their website. A Trumpite in the family had told her that she couldn’t vote, so she casually brought it to me about wanting to vote for VP Harris, I immediately activated the grandkid and easy peasy, Dems Abroad Rocks!
See I’m a multiuniversal great, get your money ready for my next event!
Man that Arby’s joke was award winning good. True greatness there, now our Gurl got one week to respond. Defend your honor.
If you’re not behind the pay wall, you’re missing out. I present law abiding questions like what happens when you order pizza #40 and white rain is delivered? It’s a huge philosophical dilemma. Tune in to find out!
On the whole “cut contact with family members/ friends” conversation, all I was thinking was “well damn, just @ brother Randolph Terrance then!…” LOL.
…sorry brother Randolph.

Sometimes it’s necessary to cut contact with family members or other people who turn out to be terrible.
But I also noticed that this suggestion is given pretty often. Conflict isn’t per se a bad think and both parties CAN learn from it. Not saying it works every time. But it also doesn’t not work every time.
As Rod often says, conflict isn’t abuse.
On the other hand you see everywhere articles about the loneliness epidemic and that it’s a bad thing.
I might see a link.
When you cut out everyone in your life who doesn’t agree with you on every topic, it’s pretty lonely.
And no, I’m not saying continue to have a relationship with people who really don’t deserve it.
I’ve said bye to extended family, at least on social media. When I lived in NY conversations always got quiet when I was around.
Obviously based on what I brought up last week, Dad is a lifelong project…it’s been harder since he got a smart phone.
