Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.
One of the bragging rights that the US ed system had in the 20th century is that we didn't have education tracks. Essentially, any kid could go to a CC or state school & major in whatever they wanted to (obviously an oversimplification). I fear this aspect of the American dream is dying.

My take on modern etiquette is EANABs (equally attractive non-alcoholic beverages) should be offered without folks needing to request them whenever alcoholic ones are
Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

the worst part about this is that i told my wife about it and she was thinking about the guys for whom chatgpt is their girlfriend, and i was thinking about the guys who have outsourced communication with their human partner to chatgpt and both of those things suck so bad
Pour one out for all the guys who can't talk to their girlfriends because ChatGPT is down
