If you don't want to watch something, that's your business, but don't expect that broadcasting your distaste is going to result in others just blindly accepting such advice.

Yes, sometimes too many choices can be constraining (hint: don’t respond to a request for guidance with ‘I’m ok with all the options): podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

The Rise and Fall of the American Monoculture
For most of the 20th century, pop culture was the glue that held the U.S. together. But what will it mean now that everything has splintered?

Reach across the aisle and have a conversation. Stop acting like releasing the Epstein files is going to change anybody's mind. Get out of the silo!

Did the dump order the invasion of Venezuela to distract his despicable base from obsessing over his backing down after the Supreme Court order to take ICE out of Portland and Chicago?

While a lot of the contributors come of as Masters Of The Obvious, I do agree 100% with the agility comment - "Management practices will focus less on planning and forecasting and more on agility". Probably a buzzword to get more used to in the next few years!

While I have a lot of issues with the strategy the Democrats in regards to almost everything, bear in mind this is the result of 2024. Trans Rights are Human Rights, which must mean the POS administration we have right now is Anti-Human Rights.

Hopefully Jimmy Kimmel will get picked up by HBO. Apparently, while MAGA shitheads can post whatever vile crap they want, others can't even make casual observations.

So, it's fantastic that so many people showed up for the "No Kings" protests all across America, including many bastions of red support, while almost nobody showed up for the dump's obsession with dictator power.
But here's the thing: Why we are in the situation we're in was very preventable. How?

The current administration thinks Whites in South Africa are being discriminated against. Tell that to those shitheads who think voting doesn't matter, or who are more concerned about the price of eggs or walking six feet from their fucking car.

If you are complaining about the price of gas or/and about parking availability, you are not qualified to be a human being.n#wotktowardsthefutute
