Someone needs to take video of the horrendous effects of these preventable diseases and release the footage.

People do not understand how horrible measles, whooping cough, polio, and others are.

They need to see it.

Yes, it would suck to exploit a child's pain, but it would save countless lives.
It boggles my mind that parents in these situations are not charged with negligence and child endangerment at the minimum.

Your child dying from a preventable disease because you fell for an internet hoax should have consequences. That is a life lost.

I think the biggest tell on AI is how hard they are pushing it.

No one had to convince us to adopt electricity, word processors, Google, or smart phones. All of the tech we use everyday was an obvious upgrade.

If AI was so great we wouldn't need to be convinced.

This post triggered a long thread about consulting a service member when you're writing about the military.

I'm happy to assist any writer with a read or answering questions about military issues.
Homeland Spoiler.

In s1e2 they mention Brody’s family is having financial troubles, as a way to pressure him into reenlisting.

He has 8 years of backpay due to him, how would they be in financial crisis?

If taken as a POW in combat your pay doesn’t stop, does it?!

They remade Amadeus.

The original is a perfect film. It's one of the best films ever made.

There's nothing that needs improvement nor revisited.

It's honestly scary that I think American being controlled behind the scenes by Putin is a better choice than Peter Thiel pulling the strings.

Every time I read about Trump lawyers actually in court, I feel like I'm more qualified just by nature of having watched the entire Law & Order first 20 seasons box set.
I’m not a lawyer but I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to tell the jury to “vote assuming we actually have a whole bunch more secret evidence”

This made me laugh out loud.

Also, Roy is extremely cute.
Raccoons are showing early signs of domestication.

Urban raccoons are evolving a short snout, a telltale feature of pets & other domesticated animals, but scientists believe this is just a ploy to get closer to our trash.

This is Roy. We feed him but aren't falling for his bullshit act.

When the Cheney's, Taylor Green's, Rogan's, and Musk's of the world turn on the regime and start attacking and asking questions, it's not the time to remind the world they are deplorable.

You don't have to praise them or embrace them.

Just say nothing and let them eat each other.

I'm eavesdropping on two Canadians arguing whether Madden should have a CFL division.

One of them contends it wouldn't work because the rules and field dimensions are different, and the CFL teams would be at huge talent deficit against NFL teams.

The other is delusional.

I will repeat this every single day for the next three years: Any Democrat running for president in 2028 must pledge to immediately tear down/bulldoze/demolish Trump’s ballroom and fully restore the East Wing and any other piece of the People’s House Trump has or will destroy.

#scriptsky This is a perfect meet cute.
Here is a local friendship I would like to find:

A fellow curious agnostic ecumenical panentheistic weirdo who would want to devise a long check list & attend a series of services/practices at all the various interesting, traditional, syncretic, & woo-woo houses of worship in Northern New Mexico

I'm watching a cooking show in Canada. The host used 227 grams of mushrooms. She commented that was a weird number, but that's what a standard container holds. She had no idea why they chose such a random number.

It's not random. It's a cup.🙄

How does a professional chef not know this?

Honestly, it feels a lot like Democratic leadership is punishing the country for electing Mamdani.

The entire first half of The Godfather takes place at Christmas (everything until Michael is in Italy.)

So, according to the Die Hard Axiom, The Godfather is a Christmas movie.

I know everyone is happy with the election results, but the fact that Michael Burry is betting $1.1 BILLION against AI companies is probably a much bigger reason for celebration.

I abhor this movie all holidays to the weekend bullshit.
Feel like, as a society, we might consider moving Halloween to the last Friday in October (observed.) Vibes truly immaculate tonight.

Night Shift is one of the most underrated comedies of the 80's. It's remembered as Michael Keaton's manic breakout.

But it only works as a movie due to Henry Winkler's steady straight man.

Totally worth checking out.

I will not stand for this Richard Dawson ERASURE!

#freesteveharvey
How did they remake #runningman and not cast #SteveHarvey as the host?

This is the worst missed stunt casting/nostalgia grab/homage/inside jokes EVER.

#baseball, #MLB absolutely gets one thing right. A 7 game series should be 2-3-2. It gives the home team a bigger advantage, meaning late regular season games can mean something. It condenses the timeline--intrest can wain over a much longer 2-2-1-1-1. 2-3-2 is just a superior format.
