Those 3 states are huge, but the other swing states are definitely still a factor. If Harris wins all 3 Blue Wall states, she very likely will win the presidency. However, if she doesn't win all 3, then either candidate's victory will likely be decided by the other swing states - Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, and Georgia.

Not that I'm holding my breath, but having it (and legalizing recreational weed) on the ballot could make the Florida election more interesting.

"since the financial crisis" - You'll have to be more specific than that 🥲

Calculating the total number of hours that one sees their parents, and then dividing that total by 24 to determine the "number of days" they've spent with their parents is misleading and nonsensical. You yourself spend nearly every other day with your folks and, through your math, you've calculated that you're "really only" spending 5% (1.6 years / 30 years) of your time with them. This reminds me of (though is not nearly as bad as) this "A Day Off" anti-time-off propaganda.

Edit: Grammar

Popeyes makes an amazing chicken sandwich! (Assuming that's what you were getting from Chick-fil-A.) I might even enjoy it more than Chick-fil-A's.
