I can see why people would like it. It has a lot going for it. The time period, the costuming, wellness gurus, conmen, eccentric patients, family drama, etc. It just doesn't come together as a movie (which doesn't even cover the Kellogg Bros. estranged relationship which is a movie unto itself)

Bored people are boring. Also, high functioning autistic people are easily bored due to issues like mental health challenges, burnout, and difficulty managing sensory input or social interactions, but that's not as cute to say to children

saw Road to Wellville. Terrible, terrible movie, but would've been a prescient HBO series like 15 years ago. The mix of pseudo-scientific health fads, predatory capitalism (influencers & RFK types), 19th century puritanism, and overt sexuality (i.e. tits galore) were perfect for prestige television

Lust Month Icon, Day 7: Chun Gong Tu "Spring Palace Pictures"
Dating back to the Han Dynasty, beyond their lustful appearance, they historically served a practical role in sex education as "How To" guides. Sex was viewed as essential for balancing Yin & Yang energies to promote health and longevity

except my progressive content is literally just repeating MAGA content verbatim with someone quote-skeeting "we're cooked" over it

Donny @dgschell.bsky.social · 17h

And she's correct.

AOC says people are being 'algorithmically polarized' by social media

"There are people that are living in a MAGA universe online," Ocasio-Cortez said. "And that happens as well in progressive content and algorithms."

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.
