Not that I condone any of this, but consider that the cultural disgust of marrying a girl under the age of 18 is a more recent and modern taboo. Back then, in rural United States, it wasn’t an issue at all. Heck as a Gen X kid whose parents were from the Silent Generation, my mother married her first husband when she was 16 and he was 22. She never thought it was an issue other than she regretted marrying anyone at the age. But her parents, church, and teachers didn’t think it was a problem.

It’s hard to believe because most people might say Elvis lived in modern society but he’s not. The 20th century was full of changes that we don’t really think about.

It was only relevant when the corps didn’t have it.

Please AppleSoft BASIC was doing bytecode before Java was a gleam in a programmers eye.

Newsblur is definitely my go-to. I love that I can train it to filter out toxic topics for me. It’s not 100% as sometimes the topic is just a repeat of the title.

But 90% of the time I can and it does.
