it actually took me by surprise. i had my car fixed; i hadn't out that late for a burger in ages. wendy's used to be open until 4.. now everything's gone at 11pm? truly, the trump presidency has taken a harsh tolll. even old-fashioned american businesses are struggling to make normal hours |

24 hour stores always give me a sick feeling even if I need something from them. It's a violation of natural law for a building to be brightly lit forever. It needs to shut down and sleep. Its familiar spirits become nauseated, disoriented and malicious when they cannot rest. Imagine being the local 7-Eleven imp and feeling like you've been pulling all nighters since the store opened. Horrifying. No wonder Trump got elected. |

I really like the idea of being able to go to a convenience store at 2 in the morning but yeah those fluorescent lights would put me off |

I find Trump as deeply problematic as the next person, but let's not forget that he never would've been "elected" if we didn't already exist in an overtly white supremacist country. So until we tackle the societal issue we're only treating symptoms. One solution I read about would be to annually administer the Implicit Association Test to all white students beginning in PreK, and place those who show evidence of racial bias in remedial diversity training programs. Obviously this will be a slow process, but within a few generations we could finally eradicate racism once and for all |

yeah he is like an avatar of the stupid ignorant American trope, something deeper and more problematic underlies it all, seems America has been going progressively more right and right for years |

Shops close at seven (pm) here, and at five on Saturdays while being closed on Sundays. You can find two delis in town that open until 10. McDonald’s closes at midnight. |

i don't think things ever recovered to what it was like around 05-06 in terms of places staying open late. recession combined with more young people becoming shut-ins and not having cars, etc. |

I used to work nights in a 24 hour shop, 11pm-7am. It's better for everyone if they shut at midnight. |

Weirdly, I just imagined Alan Partridge walking into your shop and you two having a conversation. |
