it’s been a huge goal for elon musk and the entire tech reich to destroy real journalism and install a generation of people who are “citizen journalists” because they are far easier for them to control and influence to spread their agenda

Is this some attempt to kill literacy even further? If everything's audio, than peoples' need to look at even minimal text in their day-to-day is gone?
“The form factors may differ, but the thesis is the same: audio is the interface of the future. Every space — your home, your car, even your face — is becoming a control surface.”

The way we need to market this shit is to do what conservatives did for the past 30 years and write books like “The ten forbidden truths you’re not allowed to say on politically correct tv” and then it’s just cities are mostly fine and it’s good to get a flu shot
A remarkable trend that will come as a shock to you if your only info about NYC is from this Fox News.

The entire party and their supporters want unfettered access to kids genitals. It's more important to them than tax breaks. This isn't a joke post. They're using the full weight of the government to protect a cabal of pedophiles with the President right at the top. What else is there to say
i do find it a fascinating assumption rightwingers are making that they should be able to walk into any daycare center and observe random peoples children whenever they want

THE DAY CARES ARE LOCKED BECAUSE YOU MADE A GENERATION-LONG EFFORT TO MAKE IT AS EASY AS POSSIBLE TO KILL THE CHILDREN INSIDE THEM YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING GHOULS
these fucking people. they pass laws to make sure every person with a screw loose who wants an Armalite can show up to the day care armed & ready to kill, then complain that the day cares are locked to protect the children inside
CNN: “Surely you don’t think a daycare should be unlocked.”
SHIRLEY: “There should be a reception area.”
CNN: “No, every day care is locked.”
SHIRLEY: “Fair point.” 🤔
He shows up to a day care with masked men and wonders why they don’t let him in.

This used to be the main trope of mysteries going back to Holmes.
The police are incompetent, so the detective - who is NOT police and may not even work with them - who has to clean up the mess they made of the investigation.
We lost a lot in the genre as that faded.

Monk is great, every episode is like "hey Monk, I don't think we need you on this one, Mr. Smith was a baker and he baked himself into a pie" "but captain, he's still wearing shoes. If I was gonna bake myself into a pie, I'd take off my shoes first" "god damnit randy, he's wearing shoes!"
Monk may be copangada, BUT the fact that it takes time to piss on CSI for being stupid bullshit is pretty great

Daycare centers were also the primary target of the Satanic panic, because fundamentally American religious conservatism is opposed to women having jobs outside the home.
