I've zero interest, but I was forced by my wife to bust out the digital antenna and make it happen. She's only watching for taylor swift and the commercials though.

I've never seen an invite pop up for materialize anywhere. I'd gladly trade for one, but I guess it's fucking unobtanium. I've not found any other sources either, and I've looked.

This is the answer. There are free indexes out there like https://binsearch.info but thanks to automated DMCA takedown bots, there's very little on "open" usenet that stays up for long. You need to get on a private index and, unfortunately, pay for a subscription to get any kind of reliability.

Big same. I've spent the last 30 years arguing (and voting) for sustainable policies and environmental regulations, but what little progress has been made is woefully insufficient. I did my best, but obviously humanity doesn't actually want to survive.
