The middle-aged and senior people I know do not have idle hands. They are very active with volunteering, traveling, quilting, fishing, reading, gardening, hiking, crafting, RVing, church activities, art and music festivals, etc. They are not interested in sitting in front of a computer, or staring at a little telephone screen in their hands all day long. If they want to communicate with other people they use the telephone. Some of them don't even own a computer, or their children bought them one but they refuse to use it. The seniors I know are so busy that they mainly use the calendar feature on their computers or smart phones, if they have one, so they can keep up with their busy schedules.

Actually I find a good number of upper-middle aged folks to be very active online. Idle hands (aka retirement) are the devil's playthings.

Mitch McConnell's brother-in-law Gordon Hartogensis has been tapped by Trump to head the sprawling Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, but there are real questions about whether or not Hartogensis is even capable, as he has no prior experience, and hasn't held a job for almost 20 years. Ha, like that's ever stopped a Trump nominee!You mean it's not Jared?

In a speech at the Heritage Foundation, Bolton outlined the three-pronged approach the administration will take towards colonizing Africa even as the Pentagon seeks to consolidate military resources and assets throughout the continent.While America (continues to) bomb Africa, China builds roads, railways, highways, and airports.

Let's put Trump's assface on the Wall-That-Might-Be and let people throw garbage and feces at it, or deface it in any way they see fit. If they pay for it, it's not govt property, amirite?

Perhaps that is why I don't care for excessive over-sized, theatrical mustaches.

The people he would talk to would be people adjacent to bees swarms. I don’t know if we can draw any conclusions based on that. 🤔 But maybe.

It’s probably also done in hot weather, to help them stay cool by licking at the ice.

^^^Nailed it. He's not physically unattractive, IMO. But he's such a thoroughly nasty jerk that I don't think I could even hatefuck him.
