Individual paid newsletters are not the answer to the collapse of media outlets ... but writer collectives like @theflytrapmedia.com (and many other delightful collectives!) might be an answer.

Edited meme screenshot from an episode of Star Trek Voyager. The image is an extreme low angle shot of Seven of Nine, as though the photo is from your POV as you lay on the floor looking up at her. She is smiling at you with a wide, toothy grin. A tumblr post has been edited into the image next to Seven's smiling face. The post, from user neon--mess, reads: ":) (aggressive)"

Multiple times edited screenshot of Harry Kim and Tom Paris from an episodes of Star Trek Voyager. Harry has his hands up with his palms facing out in front of him, with his eyes downcast. Tom, hunched over, has his mouth open in a perfect 'O,' like a howler monkey. His hand is in front of him, blurry as though in motion. The word "MONDAY" has been edited onto the bottom of the image in a large, white, comic-sans-esque font. Only now the word "Monday" has been crossed out with a hastily drawn red X, and below it in a blue comic-sans-esque font it says "WEdNESday." Now that "Wednesday" has also been crossed out with another hastily drawn red X, and under that in a white comic-sans-esque font it says "thursday." That "thursday" has now also been crossed out with another hastily drawn red X, and on top of all of these crossed out words is now the most recent addition: "IT IS MONDAY" in blocky red and yellow text.

I'm a big fan of this 1954 video - it was made for marketing departments by the publishers of Ebony Magazine, and does some incredibly deft stepping around directly confronting the implied racism of how consumer companies treat(ed) black Americans.

In 1955, a Black doctors wife who was chair of the local “colored” Red Cross demanded (in person) that a Mississippi newspaper grant her the courtesy title “Mrs” - instead of referring to her by first name only - or stop writing about her at all. A big moment in press history.

I’m doing research for a project and found out about the “don’t buy where you can’t work” movement during the depression, where Black people boycotted and picketed places that wouldn’t hire us. Shout out to everyone who’s not going back to Target!

"For hours, her family couldn’t locate her. Only after coming across a video online did they realize that Figueroa had been taken by masked federal agents through video circulating the web. They were able to ping her through her iPhone location at the ICE processing center in Broadview."

NEWS: Federal agents crashed with woman’s car, pointed guns at her, dragged her out by legs, tossed her in a minivan, held her and (eventually) let her go without charges. This as Chicagoans say the immigration blitz is out of control. (DHS blames her.)

There’s no screening for ovarian cancer and it’s really difficult to spot: you can’t squidge your ovaries in the shower to check for lumps. Also it’s very good at masquerading at other things, like IBS and diverticulitis.

Please take a look at this list of symptoms - and share if you can.

Cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube or peritoneum usually causes symptoms that are similar to common non-cancerous conditions. This can make it difficult to diagnose early.
If you have any of these symptoms or get these symptoms regularly, your GP should offer you cancer tests:
• a long-lasting bloated or swollen tummy
• feeling full quickly when you eat
• loss of appetite
• pain in the lower tummy area or back
• peeing (passing urine) more often than usual
• needing to pee urgently (feeling like you cannot hold on).
Other symptoms may include:
• a change in your normal bowel function (diarrhoea or constipation)
• weight loss for no obvious reason
• unexplained or extreme tiredness (fatigue)
• vaginal bleeding after the menopause.
If you are aged 50 or older and develop symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) for the first time, you should also have tests. IBS can cause bloating and changes in bowel function. But it does not usually start after the age of 50.

Trump's average disapproval rating has hit 56% in our tracker at fiftyplusone.news. He is now just a point off his (then historically low) net approval rating at this point in 2017, and nearly meeting the high point of Joe Biden's disapproval rating in 2022/late 2024 (57.3%).
