I am once again complaining about how all movies and shows have really loud background music, but everyone speaking is mumbling. I have to watch everything with subtitles and the volume low to not upset the roommates or neighbors. This is ridiculous.

The documentary they put out on Luigi Mangione is a hot pile of garbage. They interviewed the most spineless, soulless cowards and did everything they could to drag his name through the dirt. Shame on all of them and Max for streaming it.

The biggest annoyance of wearing a face mask at work is my hot breath fogs up my glasses. Does anyone have a trick for that?

I was thinking of getting YouTube live TV to watch the Super Bowl. But now, seeing who made it, it's not worth it.

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience.

A federal court has declared that warrantless searches of US person’s communications collected for national security purposes is unconstitutional. Now it’s our job to make sure Congress knows that when they renew this law in a little over a year.
VICTORY! Federal Court (Finally) Rules Backdoor Searches of 702 Data Unconstitutional

Turns out I have a Hernia I've been living with for about a year now. It's a "reducible Inguinal Hernia" which isn't as bad as a strangulated or lacerated Hernia but still uncomfortable. Contemplating getting surgery and what that means as far as missing work and taking care of the dog. This sucks.

Today at work, I overheard my boss talking to another employee (whose family lives about 20 minutes from the LA fire). He actually said out loud, "Why don't they just use ocean water to put out the fire?" Could you imagine saying this to a firefighter or anyone having to live through this? Insane.

I get zero traction here and Facebook. So it doesn't really matter what void I shout into. But I still use Facebook more because of the specific groups I'm in that keep me up to date with the hobbies I enjoy. Maybe we should form groups on this app.

One reason people insist that you use the proper channels to change things is because they have control of the proper channels and they’re confident it won’t work. - Jon Stone
The Ohio Supreme Court has nullified the $650 million judgement that multiple counties won against Big Pharma over the opioid crisis.
The court ruled that the state's product liability law prohibits counties from bringing public nuisance claims against pharma corporations.
