    I was born in 85 and definitely in the 90s was running wild all over the neighborhood/surrounding areas with no contact with my parents or families for hours upon hours. At 11/12-years-old my friends and I would routinely ride our bikes miles away to restaurants and stores. No worries in the world.

    I think too, parents just weren’t hit over the head with dreadful news hour after hour after hour like we are now with social media and 24/7 news cycles. Back then, you rarely heard of fucked up shit and if you did it was a “ah, that would never happen here” response. Doom and gloom is now engrained in all of us.

    My kids are 7 and 10. They both have smart watches with GPS enabled. My wife will monitor them like crazy, even if they’re just three houses down.

    My understanding is that when Al Franken resigned, the ethics report into him was cut short and nothing was released

    But

    a) he resigned to disappeared from the public eye, rather than to get a high ranking cabinet post

    b) I don't think the report was anywhere near complete. So there probably wasn't much to release. Whereas the Gaetz report is ready

    I can't speak for US work culture, but as someone who works in HR: it is absolutely no faux paus. And i wouldn't do it sneakily either, but ask straight away without putting on pressure.

    Gaetz was also the lone No vote to make revenge porn illegal in the Florida State House

    There’s a process to cut regulations that usually involves at least some thoughtful justification. This is going to be a shit show that will largely fail in my opinion
