  • Can I talk about being in a Nielsen panel or survey?

    No. Once you begin participating, we ask that you do not share that you’re part of Nielsen research. We ask that you do not discuss your role with people outside of your household, including on social media websites, such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. This helps keep our research as independent as possible.

  • It’s a retired couple with adult children who don’t live with them.

  • I personally know at least one family who is a Nielsen household. You’re asked to keep your participation confidential which is probably why you don’t know anyone doing it.

  • Whatever it is sounds smashing!

  • For English readers, here’s what you can avoid:

    Business Insider, Politico, The Daily Telegraph, Morning Brew​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

  • We surveyed 3,605 U.S. adults from March 24 to 30, 2025. Everyone who took part in this survey is a member of the Center’s American Trends Panel (ATP). This report also includes findings from a separate ATP survey of 8,937 U.S. adults conducted from May 5 to 11, 2025.

  • Why not?

  • Honestly, Australia having free pay phone calls is almost more interesting than the game they are playing with them.

  • But here we are, years later, and he’s still hell-bent on becoming a “Carrington.” Why?

    I think you answered this yourself directly after this.

    Well, for one, he’s never liked me or my last name, and he’s not close to my side of the family at all…I have siblings, but…neither did I ever let my son visit them. The last time my son saw my parents or my siblings was when he was 10 years old, and that was it.

    From my perspective your side of the family sounds dysfunctional. You have siblings and living parents but you don’t see them and won’t let him either? What exactly does this lineage represent to him I wonder? Isolation? Disappointment? Bad feelings? I can’t imagine it’s anything good.

    But still, that doesn’t give him the right to change his last name

    Depending on his age, you have no say in this decision and I think you need to come to grips with that.

    For actual advice: talk to him and try to understand what is driving this without judging him or trying to change his mind. Additionally, I’d work to repair your extended family relationships, with your son. If his linage is real people he has bonds with, I suspect he would be less willing to sever those ties.

    I wish you the best of luck.

  • Locking for obvious reasons.

  • Yup. Getting temp banned for this as well. Be respectful next time.

  • If you giggle while they grope you, it makes them very uncomfortable.

    Source: I can’t help but giggle because the whole thing is so dumb.

  • In the era of fake news, I really only trust CUM publishing.

  • For a bigger house in a hot climate, it can be a significant expense. Additionally, air conditioners typically can’t cool beyond a certain differential, so letting all the cold out means you might not be able to get the house down to where you want it any time soon.

  • Midwesternism intensifies

  • Steel is roughly $0.30-$0.60 a pound

    Copper is roughly $5-$6 a pound

  • It’s a crazy timeline where I’m agreeing with him.

  • Respectfully, I don’t think thats their intent:

    They created a new, water- and oil-proof food packaging material made of mycelium from mushrooms and cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) from wood that easily decomposes once its purpose is finished.

  • Very cool! I’m an idiot, but I wonder if it’s water and oil proof, how do you get it to “easily break down”? I imagine some sort of processing step to remove the coating, but I didn’t see that mentioned
