"Sadness is like a little bit of an emotional death but not a defeat if you can find a way to laugh about it. Because that laughter keeps you from having fear of it, and fear is the thing that keeps you turning to evil devices to save you from the sadness."

"A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol. What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the country and the world.”

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

We KNOW people hugely overestimate the share of the budget going to things like foreign aid, welfare programs, and public broadcasting. The media could combat this confusion by making a point of putting numbers in context, but the shitheads refuse to do it cepr.net/publications...

How is this not human trafficking

The media outlet that asks you to pay $25/month doesn't know if the president can take away an American's citizenship and has to call another person to figure it out

the epstein footage is missing a minute because jeffrey started singing hey jude in his cell. justice dept doesn’t want to pay for the licensing. somewhat understandable

If you'd had a "SCIENCE IS REAL" sign in your yard 10 years ago, people would've assumed you were a massive stoner
