Sincere non-partisan, non-snarky remark: The last 24 hours has reinforced how much the current Presidency adversely affects how we assess, discuss, treat & reflect on mental illness.
A person displays multiple signs of a breakdown & NO ONE has a motivating interest to intervene. It's depressing.

During a CBC interview this year, I had a snippy exchange with a dual citizen that lamented #ElbowsUp tensions were Canadians' fault for taking the Prez too seriously.
And I, in so many words, suggested if he doesn't want to be taken seriously, maybe he shouldn't have run for (or be) President.

The "But did he MEAN it?" talk about Trump drives me mad. I'm sure the question of whether he is an actual murderous dictator or merely a paranoid rageaholic screaming into TruthSocial will make for a good "Interesting Times with Ross Douthat" or ten, but both are disqualifying, so why split hairs?

SO many-- and I mean SOOO many-- facets of journalism's depressing decline captured in one piece: the fealty to access journalism, loss of solidarity within (& for) the profession, incentivizing bad behaviour, actively punishing vigilance & a shrinking pool holding the capital. #EpsteinFiles #Nuzzi
New — I wrote about the myriad ways journalism’s moral rot manifests, and how our crumbling institutions have created the conditions for it to fester:
Moral rot in elite journalism is killing the whole field
The Nuzzi/RFK Jr. mess and the revelation of Esptein's journo pals lay bare a profound moral absence at the heart of our free press.

I know this is trivializing something serious but this REALLY begs for the Miss Piggy "hi-yah!" chop.
When asked on Air Force One if there was anything "incriminating" in the Epstein emails, Trump pointed a finger at the female reporter's face and said “Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.”

100% this. You could release every single Epstein file unredacted tomorrow and hold every single person within it accountable in a court of law...and there would STILL be people left enacting the current Presidential administration's agenda. But that should not be and is not the point. #EpsteinFiles

“We seethe over the betrayal by a supposedly democratic society that quickly averts its collective eyes and allows predators, mostly men, to get away with it and reinvent themselves right in front of our eyes as we’re punished if we speak out about our basic rights to survival and safety.”
