Sort of like the people that decry California as a 'failed state'. The same California that just took over Japan's spot to be the 4th largest economy in the world. Yeah, let me fail like that.  If you are fleeing and they are doing great, maybe you were just holding them back?

Just noticed this, but thought it is interesting that Massachusetts has benefitted greatly from policies enacted by Mitt Romney. Who would have guessed that the guy who was the Republican nominee in 2012, *AND* was a leader of the most successful Democratic state would have no home in either party.

This is your friendly reminder that the forum guidelines are real simple. KEEP POSTS RESPECTFUL! We will be paying closer attention to the forum from here on out to ensure Radio Paradise is not used as a platform for hate, there are enough places on the internet for that. If that's your jam, find some of those gutters to play in. Radio Paradise is a community of music lovers. Keep it civil and for f**k sake, keep it kind! If you've experienced harassment here on the forum, please contact me at alanna@radioparadise.com.

For reference here are the forum guidelines.
  • Everything posted should be appropriate for all ages. The Internet is full of adults-only hangouts. We don't see any reason to have RP be one of them.
  • Please refrain from using racist, violent, or sexual imagery in avatars & forum pictures. A good guideline is that if it's something that you wouldn't want your kid or your boss to see while looking over your shoulder, then it doesn't belong here. We reserve the right to edit or delete any post or avatar without notice.
  • Play nice. While hearty debates are big fun, bashing people with differing views is not.
  • Cyberstalking or harassing fellow members in any way will not be tolerated. Anyone who feels like the victim of such activity should contact us immediately.
  • Please refrain from the excessive use of profanity.
  • Please don't post links to warez, filesharing, or porn sites.
  • Discussion of actual pork products is permitted, spamming the forums is not. It's OK to mention products or services - including other radio stations - but that should not be the only reason for the post.
  • When starting a new topic, please pick the most appropriate category (just one, please!) below.
  • Only one active identity is allowed per person, except by permission from Bill & Alanna. All members must keep a valid email address on file with us. You have the option of keeping your address private from other members, but we need to be able to contact you if necessary.
Failure to follow these guidelines may result in the immediate deletion of the offending posts. Gross or repeated violations will result in the immediate suspension or termination of your posting privileges.

 Tubby doesn't want to go back to the 50s. Just 30-40 years back, when sex trafficking wasn't really reported, rapes by the rich were dismissed, gays and drag were a cute novelty not to be taken seriously....
