My overwhelming impression of TV and movies these days is that it's too violent and sexual to watch with my kid, but also too childlike and simpleminded in its themes, plot and characters to be taken seriously by adults.

Many in Hollywood have struggled to
navigate how to talk about their

Some of them have turned to Hen
Mazzig for advice.

So I have been actively Instagraming for a little over a year now and apparently I am not ok at it.
But I will note that this, my first million plus video, was probably one of the lowest effort, least considered pieces of content i produced.
All the incentives push us away from deep thought.

And you can take him seriously because he doesn't take the AIPAC money.
Trump’s illegal misuse of the military, using our cities as “training grounds,” is dangerous for individuals and our democracy. This welcome ruling offers important hope from Portland to DC.

Arguing that if we'd adopted Jillian Segal's recommendations in full that somehow we would have stopped what happened at Bondi is a deliberate, egregious and disgusting manipulation of a genuine tragedy.

The press is trying to blame the Bondi attacks on @albomp.bsky.social's gov, for recognising Palestine. It's important we point out that any peaceful progress towards the liberation of Palestine makes violence less likely. By recognising Palestine, we reduced the motivation for and risk of attack.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

9 civilians one of two shooters dead after what looks like an antisemitic terrorist attack in Bondi, targeting a Chanukah event.
Appalling scenes. I was just there the other day. Surreal
A tiny taste of the violence and hate we support overseas has washed up on our shores, and it's shocking.

Just a quick reminder about Measles.
Covid (remember that 🥴) has an R0 of about 3. With no intervention, each infected person spreads it to 3 others
Anyone want to guess what's Measles R0 is?

This piece of shit worked for Obama, a tool of oligarchy. Obama's campaign began with donations from bankers, and his policies benefited them above all else, putting wealth in their pockets at the expense of the generation who voted for him, like the chumps we were. Burn this fuckers house.
Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Looks like they just aren't going to cover it at all. That's what happens when lightweights like @ryangrim.bsky.social run their "alternative media" organisations as personal cliques.
Interested to see how @dropsitenews.com cover this, given their correspondent, Shariff Kouddous's very strong anti-brotherhood sentiment, including his support (along with Bassem Youssef, Mona El-Tahawy, etc) for the coup in 2013 to remove them from power. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
