I posted just last week about the 80s, somewhere, either on my forum or on Twitter. A bit different. I was an adult in the 80s. Nancy & Ron inhabited the White House & never once uttered the word AIDS. I can't tell you how many friends of mine died. Huge changes in phones, TV, cable. Being online got to be a thing. DOS 3.0. My first PC. Dial-up at 14.4! Soaps & music, of course, were phenomenal. If I recall correctly that's when we went from long distance charges being horrendous to much more reasonable fees. Ronnie was wrong about trickle down but right about telecommunications. But because of AIDS & politics I don't have as rosy a nostalgia for it as some do.
