So I said I was tired of the discourse about NHJ and I am. But I am also astonished at the number of people who are certain their choice is better. Because the parenting report card isn't in yet and baby, some of your kids will be asking why you made them go to a racist school based on test scores

I don't think it's a coincidence that Trump is banning news outlets the week before a court's deadline for Todd Blanche to release interview notes with underage girls Trump is alleged to have raped and threatened.

He'd rather we talk about his censorship than his pedophilia.

He spent 7yrs in foster care, in 13 different foster homes.

He got his first acting job after answering an ad he saw in a shop window.

He was given nothing, was meant to achieve nothing.

Shaheen: "He seemed to say Russian children have also been displaced & kidnapped, & that's just not true. It's Ukrainian children the Russians have taken back to Russia. They've taken them from their families, thousands of them. It is very clear who is violating intl law here, & it's not Ukraine."

I know that some people don't think these types of things are important but I really do. Cultural change precedes political change. When you don't have the culture, it's more difficult to win politically or to sustain political wins. newrepublic.com/post/215697/...

Every time I return to Paris, I notice they've done more to reclaim streets from drivers and cars, including removing on-street parking, protecting cyclists from drivers, and prioritizing pedestrians and cyclists in shared spaces. Other cities can learn a lot from Paris.

Deidre's husband waited months for a special chair he desperately needed. It arrived two weeks after he died.

Labor's aged care reforms are a disaster: blowing out waitlists, denying care and forcing people off supports. Growing old should be a joy, not a struggle for survival.

Oddly enough, the White House Press Corp *did* act like real news organizations today by walking out in protest over thin-skinned Trump's attempt to censor unflattering, accurate news reporting.

But they only did that because ham-fisted Trump forced their usually timid hands.
JD Vance defends Trump's ban on the free press: "They're just not going to get an office in the White House anymore, and I think it's totally appropriate -- unless of course they start to behave like real news organizations"

Something that is mentioned in this article that I meant to comment on and then went to eat breakfast:

Prime wants content that brings new subs. So their entire TV model is (by their reports) "if this TV show appeals heavily to our existing audience, it is worthless"
