What was the best and worst year for the USA in the last hundred years? Since 1926 to now
what was best year for the USA? And what was the worst year?
Since 1926 to now
Big question I know. there might be multiple years to put for your answer and that’s fine interpret how you want
What is an example of an All-American bar song? A song every America can sing along too
I was at a bar and Our Song by Taylor Swift came on for karaoke
I swear. everyone sang along, so passionately. Word by word. Men and women.
you can tell it’s a song stuck with Americans and has a strong chorus. it feels American. Despite your opinion of her now when Taylor was country she was very special for middle America
Any other examples? Songs that have a punchy sing a long chorus. Maybe new songs you might not expect like my example
Introducing State User Flair: Let know me if I missed one
Feel free to pick your state and add it as your flair. I added all the states from memory
If I forgot one let me know
Sorry I didn’t know how to do it until recently
Do you remember 9/11? If so what was your memory of it
Additional I see a lot of people mention that when the first plane hit everyone assumed it was a huge mistake. But then when the second hit it was clear it was a terrorist attack
How soon did you know it was a terrorist attack?

- On my last post the most East was the Lubec, Maine. Or the Virgin Islands
I swear. The Midwest sets you up for a view of the world that doesn’t exist anywhere else
i’ve moved a few times now. i’m originally from the Midwest in Michigan. And I feel like the Midwest sets you up to expect things only exists in the Midwest.
I moved to the East Coast & Texas and now I know why people call it Midwest nice. you don’t have to be skeptical to friendly people in the Midwest
But on the East Coast, when people are overly friendly to you, they actually have ulterior motives to set you up for something.
Which has fucked me over so much coming from the Midwest. situations I’ve been in by being too trusting. I genuinely assume that everyone is being honest and friendly.
Like I became friends with a new coworker at my job in Michigan. I knew her for three days then my car broke down and I told her. her and her boyfriend drove to help jumpstart my car.
It’s crazy cause that could never happen anywhere else
In the Midwest if your car breaks down your boss will offer to drive you to work with no need for compensation
In the Midwest, if your friend needs a ride to the airport, you just do it
In the midwest, we throw going away parties when people leave their job
If your neighbor needs a lawn mowed, you’ll just do it. If your best friend is in need of a place, you’ll let them crash on your couch.

What are states that “have a buddy”?
States that you feel like “have a buddy” or a sibling
Like New Hampshire and Vermont. They just go together. Opposite shapes, next door neighbors
Vermont is the hippie farm brother. New Hampshire is the rustic chaotic brother
What killed the ‘AI ASMR’ boom of 2025? Just a year ago ‘glass fruit cutting’ videos were everywhere after AI advanced. The genre is now dead. What happened?
**I’m not saying this is a good thing or a bad thing. just curious in discourse
Just a year ago it seemed like we had an AI breakthrough.
advanced enough to make realistic video. glass cutting asmr, toast spreads. seemed AI was gaining new acceptance? Or tolerance in exchange for asmr
Now as of May 2026 the genre is absolutely gone. I searched before this post and literally no other ‘ai videos’ get made. what could’ve seemed like a new chapter for AI has died out already
What happened? What changed? AI was seemingly acceptable to get millions of views in 2025. But now in 2026 I can’t see that happening anymore.
AI has took a major hit in how it’s viewed. What has happened to drastically change casual tolerance for passion hate

A year of using Grok is making my brain atrophy. Anyone else feel this?
I’m not being serious. but I do use grok in my daily life for so many random choices if I am debating a choice
“Should I wear this sweater to this interview?” “Should I get coffee today or wait?”
I feel like after a while this kinda kills your brain. it’s like you’re not actually using it. but this tool has helped me so much
