    This right here. I’m 43 and don’t remember birthdays or death days for most of my family. I also have to think things through to remember at times. I also have problems recalling specific words at random ass times, for example I wouldn’t be able to bring up the word “table” but could tell you about fermis paradox, another time it would be “sidewalk” that my brain could be assed to remember.

    Biden is old and should be retired somewhere on the beach. He chose to run again because he knew we needed to get rid of trump, remember that, he chose to run again. Now he is the only thing standing between democracy and another large step into fascism with a future dictator.

      Some days ago I was asked how old I was and I had to seriously think about it for some seconds. Some things are important to me, some aren’t. Some memories are easy to access and others might be buried below grief and years of just not thinking about them.

      And you’re right. He’s probably not running for himself but to keep that orange douche out. And that’s a good thing.

        Exactly. That’s my point. He deserves our thanks and appreciation not our ire and constant judging of everything he does. I would take Biden drooling and staring off into space over anything the right has offered over the past few decades.

        Even if Bidens 2nd term does nothing to move us forward that’s better than moving backwards under trump or whoever putin wants installed as king.
