People ask how MAGA can believe TFG45 and the GOP's lies. Why they vote against their own best interests.
This is a big part of it.
Media consolidation means some folks only have access to conservative right-wing outlets.
You do not know what you do not know.

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

Government services don’t lose money. They cost money. That is a critical difference.
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Nutcracker 2025 show 9
Sensory friendly performance.
Show is nice and short but we get asked to make changes like “take 45 seconds off this scenic shift” with a “btw you’re not gonna get a rehearsal for this”
But hearing the kids who otherwise might not get to enjoy it, makes it worth it.

I like "We Built This City". I've never understood the hate for it, either.
It's very much in the vein of Spirit of Radio, American Pie, Video Killed the Radio Star, Grace Kelly by Mika, and Love Song by Sara Bareilles.
I'd love to see someone do a remake of it, like Disturbed's Sound of Silence.

Fair warning: if you don't wanna be inundated w/cute kitten pics and videos, you might want to mute me for the next couple to three months.
Chad keeps texting them to me, so I keep posting them. Because if I have to be subjected to this level of cute, so do you.
Sorry, I don't make the rules.

Chad just sent me this. Mama #cat came out of the babybin (briefly!) for pets, so he got this squee-worthy video.
Yeah, I don't think I'm getting much work done for the next few months! 😍

We did grab quick bebah #kitten pics during the bedding change.
Also, mama #cat is SUPER affectionate. She's all about being petted. Which could be in part from hormones, but is hopefully just her natural personality.

We tried to move the bebahs to the larger babybin so we could change the bedding in the small one mama #cat had them in.
No sooner did we have all 5 moved than she grabbed one & raced back to the small babybin with it.
We managed to get the bedding changed, but we had to move FAST!

Well, that was fast! Woke up this morning to mama cat nursing FIVE BEBAHS. I guess now we know why she was so talkative & active last night 😮
Looks like four black & one gray kitten, but they could end up being tabbies. Stripes show up later.
