If you're reading this through a 3rd party app and I have you blocked, it's probably just that you have your comments set to "Followers Only". That's an #authortiarian #EchoChamber at it's worst. No hard feelings tho. 😆 You do you.

It makes parents of teens feel better to blame peer groups for their children's eating disorders but the fact of the matter is that only 1 meal out of the 3 recommended are served at school. The rest of "eating" generally happens under parental control with emphasis on the word control.

I would like for @hiddenbrain.bsky.social to cover the psychology of #Lying. Why do people lie? Why would some people seemingly rather die than simply admit that they told a lie? I'm thinking of course, about #KristiNoem but the podcast could avoid talking about her specifically, if they wanted to.

(1/3) So at 31:10 minute mark in the 1/20/26 Ep. of the @revealnews.org podcast, there was an awkward moment between host @alletson.bsky.social and guest @radleybalko.bsky.social where I think they were talking about two different things.

@cbsnews.com should not waste their time with liars like #KristiNoem. Let @foxnews.com.web.brid.gy corner the market on disinformation.
Yes, I know she's a "government official" but CBS has to admit — she's not a leading expert on anything newsworthy at all.

The last time a US President knowingly lied to the entire nation, he was also a Republican but no citizen was shot in the face and he was only trying to spy on the opposition, not overthrow the Federal Reserve.
