Exactly. Often the title is longer than the text of the post, and may even just say "title".

What a great question!!

According to the poll, 63 percent of voters who supported President Biden in 2020 think that the recent wildfires in Maui are primarily the result of climate change, while the same share of Trump voters just think these things happen from time to time.

No surprise there. Personally I think both are true, and also that the local power company likely shares some blame because both climate change and "things happen" are good reasons to take extra precautions.

A real title, one that you would typically capitalize the first letter of each word, does not have to be a sentence and often isn't. But many "titles" on forums like this are really sentences which capture the whole essence of what's being asked or stated, like your "title" does. As I browsed my "front page" (for lack of a better term) just now, indeed I found that titles followed that rule.

I had not seen it in the news nor social media, and just last night my wife told me about it. This posting was the first article I read.

As a lesbian of the much maligned Boomer generation (same as Laura Ann Carleton), I want to express my profound gratitude to her and to all our proud allies who have stood up for us, stood with us, marched with us, and sometimes taken a bullet for us. Without allies like her I would not have been able to marry my partner of 38 years, in many places would not have been able to buy a car with her or rent/buy a home with her. While I do not want to diminish the fact that life is far from perfect for LGBTQ+, and American society has been sliding backwards in many areas, today I want to honor courageous heroes like Laura Ann Carleton. Always remember her name and deeds, for she was a blessing among us.

The day is yet young.

Bad look Dems

the suggestion that being angry about the harm done to me is a flaw on my part that needs fixing…

If the day ever comes when you would prefer not being angry about the past, when you would prefer to embrace joy on a daily basis, then and only then would therapy be worthwhile. As long as you're not lashing out at others with your anger, then only you, alone, are being hurt by your anger.

SUPER DUPER MONDAY!!!

Nothing prosecutors or anyone else could ever do to stop him from that type of talk. The reason we all recognize your phrasing as something he would say is because it is exactly like everything he ever says.

Let the trials go on. America is lost as a democracy if we don't convict the first insurrection by a president we've ever had.

I clicked before I realized it was a link to twitter...er....X.

Don't you use X when you want to cross something out?

It should be noted that, in the US at least, your library card will often give you online access to many publications.

His trial is already overdue, especially compared to the many already convicted J6 insurrectionists.

Oldie but goodie. As I recently told family, my primary gripe with "progress" is that it's financed by people whose sole goal in life is to become even wealthier.

401k? I heard about those.....

Kind of you thanks :) Actually my health remains solid and I enjoy my work, so it's not so bad.

Average? I'm not sure. Expected is 65 though. I'm in US, and collecting my meager social security benefits. Recently reduced my work week to 40-45 most weeks

I hope I never reach that - can’t afford to be alive then.

Same. And I'm 69. Got a few good working years left, then....
