Despite US politics being a total clusterfuck, this is an incredible development. It will be the first time anyone under the age 54 will have been alive to see a Lunar mission. Part of the spacecraft was also built by the European Space Agency. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'm seeing a serious uptick in people being shamed for taking a step back from this dystopian reality for a recharge or distraction. Whether it's a film, watching sports, playing a game, or just walking the dogs, self-care is essential.
Denying yourself a break is a recipe for burnout.

Respectfully, I think this assessment is incorrect.
CSAM’s definition in the 1998 Act is intent of the image, not merely its content
Images taking dressed images of children and turning them into bikini-wearing children has an intent, focused on sexualisation.

It's unbelievably hard, nigh on impossible, to influence a zealot in a few tweets. Engaging with the worst trolls in good faith doesn't produce results, it just amplifies them and fuels their hate. They don't want to be influenced by your alternative viewpoint.
Read the argument today that people should try to influence the narratives on the other website rather than abandon it.
I respect the view but - you're not influencing anyone.
Legacy media views throttled to death. Someone gave this example.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.
