I miss when sitcoms had a toddler character where in the opening credits it would credit the twins playing him. Like "AND...CRONIN & CRAISIN BITTENBINDER AS BABY DAVID"

We have got to collectively help people understand that of course the local* cops are acting as an arm of the machine. That is their purpose.
People need to grow their minds & grieve what they've been conditioned to believe about cops being there to help/serve/protect.

Folks may know already about South America's inbred cocaine hippo problem, which - I'm sorry, I loved the movie Cocaine Bear, but Cocaine Hippo is the sequel we're all waiting for.

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.
If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

I quite like Glass Onion, which I realize is BLASPHEMY to some, but I find its presentation of our glossy dystopia to be closer to the mark than most other movies made of late.
It's also bleakly funny that even in 2022 I thought it was laying it on awful thick about tech bro douches, but if anything Norton's character is way too aware of other people as a concept and is at least attempting to fake an interesting inner life.
Pregaming for Wake Up Dead by watching Glass Onion, for some reason it especially pleases me that Rian Johnson has Blanc quote "My God, it's full of stars" and make note that the line is from 2010 not 2001.

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

this isn’t isolated; this sort of thing has happened to lots of people. and every COVID infection you get brings you closer to this outcome.

1/ Today, ProPublica is running a piece I've been working on for a bit. It's about what happened with a devastating wave of bird flu earlier this year, as egg prices hit record highs.
And it's a story that illuminates the ways the U.S. is failing to control what could become the next pandemic. 🧵

I’m one of those people who always assumes I’m in trouble no matter how farfetched. like if I get pulled over I’m like, “oh god what if I somehow have a warrant.” so I fucking CHECKED TO MAKE SURE I am not in the Epstein files. I’m not.
one kinda cool thing about me is that i’m not in the epstein files

If community spread of measles continues until Jan 20th, the US will join Canada in losing its measles elimination status.
This is what happens when “you do you” individualism takes the place of public health.
Measles is disabling and deadly but it’s also preventable.
