The presidency once served as a reminder of our common humanity. Ronald Reagan described its purpose as building "a nation composed of good and decent people."

Almost every problem we are dealing with right now can be traced directly back to this fucker right here. People want to talk about the confederates were never appropriately punished for the Civil War but bc this man was likable, America has never really even acknowledged the harm he caused.

You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

Shocking twist, there is actually some debate about whether the testosterone dose was too high. Overall the kid seems to be doing better with it than without it.
There is literally no story here other than "Father Objects To Son's Happiness."

well you see, in "he said, she said" journalism, it's important to bury the truth halfway down the page in a quote by an activist or academic (if you mention it at all) as easily-dismissible opinion, otherwise Republicans will get mad and insist you aren't being fair and balanced
They should have worked this part into the headline:

The answer is ads. It’s always been ads.
Commercials are what pay for media because consumers won’t do it willingly, and we’ve had a nearly two decades long experiment with streaming services to prove it
You know what all the streaming services are doing now? Putting in ads.

Computers were a skill. They were taught in classrooms as a skill. Skills give you power over your tools because you work them as an expert and that is leverage to multiply externally.

This "golly, let's not let politics get in the way of friendship" pap that we hear from a lot of Trumpistas is basically a kind of gaslighting, as though burning down the constitutional order & kidnapping people to ship to gulags were just another ordinary policy disagreement.
One of the many contradictions of Trumpism is that the whole appeal of Trump is that he is waging TOTAL WAR on every other part of society. But then it's totally unfair if anyone else wants to fight back.
The guy behind Punk In The Park shared a statement after bands like Dropkick Murphys said they’ll never play it again due to his support of Donald Trump.
“We don’t have to see eye to eye on everything to come together and enjoy what unites us, great music, good times, and mutual respect,” he says.

Relatedly, playing through the insomniac Spider-Man games I was struck by how much the meta-story really reflects some of the most reactionary paranoias about the state of the world
Lowkey hate games resorting to non state actors as military antagonists as if the state wasn't mostly developed as the best method of marshaling martial power

I've been saying for awhile in my direct friend circles: Tear them down, Girder and Beam
He’s not even popular or strong. They didn’t have to be muscled into complicity. They just convinced themselves, internally, that complicity was savvy and clever. That’s why they all have to be destroyed
Many powerful people in media have been making the conscious choice to kowtow to Trump, mostly but not entirely behind the scenes, since last Nov. Paramount cancelling Colbert is a rare high-profile and public example of the same corporate complicity. Sadly, authoritarian capture of media is working
