1st is objective, second is point of view, third is subjective. As The Five Cs of Cinematography (Mascelli) would have it.
There's a fine line between pov & subjective.
Point of view is seeing what a character sees but not precisely through their eyes. Subjective is through a character's eyes.

My Pick of the Week is @absurdventures.com's American Caper #1!

Trump's whole excuse for not averting a shutdown by extending ACA subsidies is that "Democrats want to fund illegal immigrants' healthcare." But it's a lie! And they know it's a lie! But they can't let the rubes in the base know it's a lie because otherwise they'll lose their public justification.

Dear Alan Moore, I completely get The Comedian now.

Donald Trump’s second term isn’t just about bad policies — it’s about breaking America’s democratic institutions for good. Today, I explain why we can’t simply “resist” Trump and wait things out, but… Can We Actually Save America?

Graphic promoting over two dozen standup comics at the Riyadh Comedy Festival happening now in Saudi Arabia, featuring what appears to be Tom Spurgeon (1968-2019) in the very first spot in the top left corner

I can't believe Tom Spurgeon would do this. Disappointing.

Very cool. Thanks. They just came up on my infinite playlist and I was curious.
