Rick 'fucking Steves, everyone.
It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

This is fantastic news, a triumph of medicine! And the overall cervical cancer rate in Oz is dropping, too, almost certainly due to HPV vaccinations.
And exactly the sort of progress RFK Jr. is trying to kill. Along with killing our citizens.

WHO AMONG US hasn't sat down 11 times with a journalist and a tape recorder only to be shocked that they'd publish stuff we talked about?

My geopolitical guess. In addition to wanting to eradicate US elections via a war with Venezuela, Trump thinks he's made a deal with Putin. Russia is V's closest ally. Putin has likely convinced him that he'll either remain hands-off or split the spoils if Trump can force Ukraine to give up land.

Hey, remember this? I do. #Venezuela
Trump to Zelenskyy: "During the war you can't have elections? So let me just see -- three and a half years from me, if we happen to be in a way with somebody, no more elections. That's good."

there is really no difference between the current administration and having the country run by david duke
On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.

Hats off to the elderly man sitting in his Honda in the grocery store parking lot absolutely blasting Elvis, hatchback open to reveal a trunk packed to the gills with magazines featuring Elvis, a collection that must have taken years. Is he selling them? Not apparently. Showing off? Maybe.

I've been making some decent bread doing dubbing for Netflix recently. I really like the work. The cast makes the original project come to life. It's fun and profitable. Please continue demanding that level of quality over whatever the hell this is.
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.
