Knox in Canada
@knoxster.bsky.social
Once spent a decade living stateside, but now home in Canada and couldn't imagine living stateside these days
Notable 60 Minutes stories pulled or retracted:
🚫 2023: IRS job loss segment pulled hours before air.
🚫 2013: Benghazi report removed after source was found unreliable.
🚫 1995: Big Tobacco whistleblower story blocked by CBS lawyers for a year.
🚫 2004: "Rathergate" retracted over forged documents.
What changed between now & Friday’s press release about this now delayed (or actually canceled?) @60minutes.bsky.social segment on the CECOT torture prison? Seems very odd. Anyone know if 60 Minutes has ever delayed a piece at the last minute before?

For the last month, I've heard Canadians talking about changing travel. And I thought yeah sure buddy you're going to Disney World .. But, some early travel numbers for this year are stark. We *do* have long memories and we can be very vengeful when provoked, like a beaver or a Canada goose..

The Aphrodite Nebula, goddess of love, dances among celestial clouds of dust and gas, her stellar heart pulsing in the vast void. Like a cosmic beacon, her stars illuminate infinity, weaving wonder and eternity across the universe’s edge.

And Americans would have been better off to pick the fungus as their leader then anything they had as a choice in the last few elections really...
In the Malheur National Forest in Michigan there is a single fungus that stretches nearly four square miles underground with a combined weight of around 35000 tons and an estimated lifespan of around 8500 years. It's the oldest of five humongous funguses within the forest, each genetically distinct.
