Platforming? Presidential debates have been a norm since the 1970’s. If Trump is a criminal traitor then winning a debate against him should be fairly simple for Biden. What’s to fear?

He’s had the least number of press conferences since Reagan for a reason. The guy is not what he once was and debate was never his strong suit. He will proport to be above debating a, “traitor.” And Dems will gobble it up. We have Ukraine, inflation, Israel/palestine, AI, climate change etc. But no press conferences. No debates. Investigative journalism is dead. Bunch of sock puppets espousing scripted narratives. But at least we could see our prospective candidates debate. No more though. Sucks.

Did you read the article? Pretty sure he mentions the decline in listeners. It’s a very well written article from someone that genuinely loves NPR. It’s remarkable for that reason.

I used to listen daily. I used to donate. I used to volunteer to answer phones. I turned it off, stopped being a, “sustainer,” and would never volunteer to help fundraise anymore. I’m not alone. It’s become hard to listen. Lots of noise, very little signal. Wasn’t always so.

Hey there! Traffic has definitely slowed. I probably swing by two to three times a week to check in and read some updates from hubskiers or share a song I recorded etc. I too am grateful for the place. It is almost like a journal of my past ideas, creativity and ruminations. Plus so many great people that have stopped in throughout the years. Hard to believe that mk posted the inaugural post over 7 years ago. Activity has waxed and waned over the years. But Hubski is here to stay.

Onward!

Have an osteochnodral lesion in my knee. Getting supershot prp. Need to stop having cause to use our product! Getting old sucks, but I suppose it's better when you've got a longevity company to help ya along.

I like this song. Had never heard of her until seeing her on SNL last night. It was a strong performance.
