We’ve gained a lot of followers from the Disney/theme park community of late, so I guess I should put out a few posts about us. I’m the American M, living most of the year in Bavaria with my wife, the German M. We first met at … DAK in 2011 and the rest is a long and tortured history. 1/…
I bet all those Orlando bloggers/influencers wish they could have ‘snacked’ at the Grand Flo yesterday.

For those who don’t recall, or never had the pleasure of knowing, a Spirited friend of mine, this means I now know every aspect of the new Magic Kingdom expansion plans. In detail. Lucky me.

Too busy posting on Twitter. Too busy looking at TikTok. Too busy doing anything/everything/nothing at all than facing this crisis and dealing with it.

People suck. They really do.

The absolute truth from @atrupar.com in PN on Trump’s health:

“There’s undeniable evidence that something is wrong. And if it wasn’t a big deal, you’d think the White House would come forward with an explanation more plausible than what they’ve offered so far.”

This post by the world’s richest and most divorced man on the site he bought to promote his far right extremism is ripped straight from the Klan messaging of the 1870s or the 1915 film Birth of a Nation that inspired the Klan’s rebirth as a PR stunt/Ponzi scheme/terrorist organization in the 1920s.

So, I am worried that MAGA healthcare is going to kill the two closest family members I have left and prevent my wife from coming to her American home, yet I’m supposed to give ‘good people’ a pass for posting on Twitter because they just have to?

Really? You think that.

MAGA must die.

This is true well beyond academic associations. I would not consider proposing the US as the physical venue for an arbitration, & I wouldn’t expect lawyers’ orgs of which I am a member to hold events & conferences in the US.
All travelers from ESTA countries (yes the ones on visa waiver programs) will have to disclose 5 years of social media + huge amounts of personal data to enter the US now. All US academic associations should now meet outside the US if we want to meet our international colleagues.

Happy birthday, Joe. I’m profoundly sorry you never made it to Germany 🇩🇪. You probably would have liked it far more than I do, most especially the beer and pretzels and pork everything. You probably would be alive today if not for the great American 🇺🇸 healthcare you received.

I’ve been feeling pretty darn good about documentary filmmaking being safe from generative AI. Most people want realism vs. digital fakery in their non-fiction entertainment, right?

Then I hear about Glenn Beck and his AI George Washington. Ugh!

Or is Beck about to prove my point / hope?

I have - in all seriousness - a retired European Commission Director General arguing on my LinkedIn that European Commissioners should keep posting on X as "could you chart the right policy course without being immersed in the whole range of the debate"

What bit of this from Musk does he not get?

Reposted by M&M Adventures
Purely practically you could keep on reading without posting - that would be something

More widely Commissioners (and anyone else) still posting on X are legitimising a fascist

This is not complicated to understand

I told the person on LinkedIn he disgusted me (I presume I will be blocked now)

Discussing the ‘good people’ who just can’t quit Twitter and post here. One thing very apparent is many of them are here for appearances only a “Mom, do I have to?! All my friends are over at Elon’s!” deal.

For every one post here, they’ll put 5-6-7 over there. Because they don’t want to be here.

It’s time to stop saying that we need to understand these people. We do understand them.

We understand that they have dug in their heels so deeply, they will not be moved by anything: not facts or data or truth or their own eyes.
