Thank you. I came all the way down in the comments for a quick description of whatever the video was. I’m certainly not gonna check his weird social media, and if I googled it there’d be endless results of ludicrous things he’s posted recently.

Absolutely agreed. The only thing I dread more is what President JD would be like because we won’t even have age related senility to blame. And it’s week 38 of 208 in the Trump presidency so I’m not sure if DJT will last that long, health wise. But who knows?

In all seriousness though, I just started @hypervisible.blacksky.app’s episode of “Tech Won’t Save Us,” and if both aren’t a regular part of the media you consume, you are missing A LOT of very good commentary on our times and the role of tech in them.
Meta and Google want to free you from screens — by putting one in front of your eyes at all times.

This week @hypervisible.blacksky.app joins @parismarx.com to discuss the anti-social world they’re trying to create through mass adoption of smart glasses.

Ew. That last phrase is gross even in scare quotes.
Sounds like their racism was even more disgusting, yet unsurprising.

That was yesterday’s video Aaron Parnas is worth following on Substack and DC based, I think open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...
Reporting LIVE From Massive Anti-Trump Protests in Washington, D.C.
More than one thousand people shutdown downtown D.C., and all the news you missed

When I worked on an ambulance we used this trick for folks with dementia & similar ailments. It worked. This was ages ago, but Ella Fitzgerald, Judy Garland, and Sinatra were common favorites. We’d try a few songs & see if it helped with agitation or worry on a confusing ride for patients.

where politicians start wars to avoid court, or get the others in their party to not vote for impeachment after hyping folks up to over throw the peaceful transfer of power on January 6, 2021 because “the voters will decide”
(Also this is a reference to the existence of parallel worlds/timelines)
