The lesson of financial analysts in the media and on Bluesky is that in the aggregate things are actually OK, just not for you or anyone you actually know.

Why do some people get upset when they see a Star Wars character they’ve never heard of? Like some people seem genuinely angry when they learn there’s a piece of SW media they haven’t watched and it baffles me.

I’m not Magyar can win. Orban has stacked the deck decisively. His extreme gerrymander allows him to win two thirds of the seats with less than half the votes. He controls 90% of the media and the full judiciary.
Magyar: “If Viktor Orbán remains, the permanent state of emergency remains, the lack of transparency, unpredictable decision-making, night decrees, drifting out of the European Union, and chaos ruled by the will of a single person obsessed with unlimited power.”

Think that’s what Polanski is trying to do but lads like these are never gonna vote Green. Young and older have been let down by a succession of neoliberal governments protecting the rich, and are now radicalised by social media to believe people with brown faces are their real enemy.

Disagree without social media I would not be getting real news from independent journalists only corporate media propaganda. I’m 72 and maybe before we start worrying about social media we need to put a ban on certain guns amount of ammunition you can purchase etc. What happens if house is on fire?

Remember before the election, some campaign-ending story was shopped to various media outlets? I assumed it was "the assassination attempt was fake" - but it could've been "the FBI believed Trump raped a girl, and Epstein was going to confirm it, which is why Trump had him murdered."

So much media doesn’t seem serious anymore. It feels absurd which I think pushes people towards skepticism & scoffing at the reality of the situations

Bsky would not let me see the pictures here because they contain 'graphic media'. Popped on the vpn to see, and it's just some blood on Simon Pegg's arm? From a film. Or is it because there's a gun? From a film. A film rated 15.
I don't really know how to process this level of censorship.

Dalton later said the film (specifically the scene Skinner and Angel have a shootout during a car chase) was the most fun he’s ever had on a set. Pegg echoed the sentiment, saying having a fist fight with James Bond was a big thrill.
