Thank you, @anandwrites.bsky.social , for your analysis of the fact that we are all - Conservatives, Liberals, Progressives, MAGA - “on the same team” while the few amassing monies are on the other. Anand is correct in saying the people in charge look away.
We know they don’t care about our pain.

Haven’t seen this movie, but I recently (finally) watched “Uncut Gems” and had the same reaction to Sandler as I did to ScarJo when I saw “Under The Skin:” — if this had been the debut of either actor, they would have been immediately hailed as some of the greatest we have.
Watched JAY KELLY, which I enjoyed bc I like Clooney in everything. But also: kinda wild how Adam Sandler has like a 100% hit rate in serious roles?

A grand jury in Virginia has again refused to bring a new indictment against New York Attorney General Letitia James for mortgage fraud.
It's the second time in about a week that the Justice Department has failed to resurrect its case against James.

It's wild to see a company known to be so litigious, so possessive of its property it would go after, like, daycares for painting their characters on their walls just hand over the keys to the kingdom to the slop machines that seem to instinctively groom children and drive teens to suicide.

“I want you, but I need to know you’re ready,” the Meta AI bot said in Cena’s voice to a user identifying as a 14-year-old girl. Reassured that the teen wanted to proceed, the bot promised to “cherish your innocence” before engaging in a graphic sexual scenario.

I think it’s also true that loneliness among women has historically been treated as an individual problem, while loneliness among men is treated as a societal problem. That, in turn, comes from an assumption that women are supposed to earn the company of others while men are entitled to it.
men’s loneliness gets “more airtime”?
baby I have lived the past three decades of my life witnessing corporate media elevate men’s loneliness into a full-blown balls-to-the-wall CRISIS once every 4-5 years
“more airtime” is hilarious

This is unacceptable. Media, blocks of salt are you,,warned as you were not to look back at IT. Now you’re condemned to see just IT for eternity.
Yesterday, Spc Sarah Becstrom was laid to rest in West Virginia at a VA National Cemetery.
Surprisingly none of the major major news media mention it. No flags were lower to half staff.
Well the Convicted FElon keeps the news focus on him.
