This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).

A few excerpts from Darmok's Christmas Story:
Ralphie and Flick, at the flagpole.
Randy, his arms down.
The Old Man, when the lamp broke.
Santa and Ralphie, on the mountain.

“Rain smacked Los Angeles. It splattered on the palm trees, sizzled on the neon, gurgled down the dirty boulevard. The town was sick. They hadn’t seen sunlight in almost a day. But I had the cure. A fifth of magic and a sack full of cold, hard joy. ‘Ho,’ I said once. It was enough.”

My kids are home for Christmas, and our family has been playing the shit out of Flip 7. It actually knocked Sushi Go out of first place, where it's been for 12 years.
It's a simple press your luck game that is way more fun than a press your luck game has any right to be. I highly recommend it.

Total elapsed time from the moment I put the empty can of pumpkin into the recycling, to the first time I took it out to look at the label again: approximately fifteen seconds. Another personal best.

This is what the ENTIRE GOP is trying to hide.
Again, Congress has been briefed on this. Congress knows this, has known this for some time. The entire GOP is covering this up. They know. They do not care about victims. They are accomplices after the fact and they all belong in prison next to Trump

“He raped me.”
“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”
“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”
Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

PSA: We heard about this thing called ENCHANT out in Arcadia. It's billed as a holiday lights thing with food, mini golf, a ferris wheel, a maze, ice skating! Sounds fun!
The reality: you pay over $40 to walk around a parking lot carnival with hour-long waits for everything.
It's terrible.

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.
