I found the abuse of these young girls who put so much into the show really traumatizing, esp when the producers were making them feel they were fat or when they did those horrible "makeovers" to make fun of them.

And the premise of creating these "stories" about the contestants that had no relationship to reality was deeply abusive. As it turns out--podcast gave more detail than the documentary--very few got modeling jobs bc of all the stunts they were force to do. It was considered a joke.

I listened to the podcast documentary before this documentary came out. The woman who did the podcast is featured in the doc; I don't know if her work is what created the basis of the film version. All I know is that Tyra Banks is indeed a psycho.

They should start with core values and , yes, drive polls. A diverse country that welcomes immigrants is a strong country.

Turns out that when one party demonizes immigrants for years, while moving to end all immigration, and the other party campaigns on, "well, actually, our colleagues across the aisle make some very good points," people start to believe it.
This is why leaders should drive polls, not follow them.

500 billion extra dollars to the US military budget won't save the US Navy if sailors and officers feel so badly treated that they leave the service in droves even as recruitment becomes increasingly difficult

Yes. This is part of my point unstated. It says something if they are afraid to call the police to protect them as citizens and caretakers of children. Its a permission structure for harassment and violence that my kids would never have faced.

House passes bill banning βleftist indoctrinationβ and LGBTQ+ teaching in public schools β’ New Hampshire Bulletin
New Hampshire House Republicans are moving forward with a new attempt to regulate teaching on race, history, and LGTBQ+ issues in public schools. On Thursday, the chamber passed a bill that would ban ...
NH state house passes "CHARLIE Act," which bans teaching, I kid you not, "critical consciousness" & "prohibited world-views," such as that queer people exist, or that slavery involved race, or, implicitly, that the Nazis murdered Jews based on identity. newhampshirebulletin.com/2026/02/19/h...
