If I want status-quo politics and “news,” i.e. direct from the White House to you, I can:
— turn on any corporate news feed
— surf my friends-list timeline on Facebook
It’s like… verbatim.
Deity help me if I accidentally post this to FB.

Two Global Policeman’s B-52’s landing during Eunice. Look at those smoky engines. I’ll think about that while I pluck out my little token recyclables from the trash each time.
I was on US-70 near Goldsboro years ago when one went over my car. It, too, laid down a nice smoke blanket and shook me any my car so hard that it blurred my vision.
When I was a child, even commercial passenger jets smoked that hard.

During the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics, the NBC commentators made a point of saying that the Ukrainian athletes would be going right by Vladimir Putin.
I thought, what is he going to do? Jump out in front of them? Throw a tantrum? Attack? Flip the bird? 🖕
No, he sat in his seat like any adult would. lol

We got a chance tonight to watch the recorded opening of the Beijing Olympics. As far as I could tell, NBC left few political stones unturned.
The audio output of my TV coupled with my high-frequency hearing loss means I could hardly make out any of it, so I was able to enjoy! 🗣 👂 👍

It’s everywhere! 😱 I need to watch some more movies about nuclear winter. ☃️
Coming home from work on Friday, on car radio NPR was going on about “multiple foreign actors” being involved in Havana Syndrome without saying who those actors were. Those US officials suffered so much from it.
Today I see NC Policy Watch reporting that the fuel pipeline companies want an entire government agency and additional powers to protect against more Russian hacking of the pipeline controls like happened last summer that caused fuel shortages. The Russian hacking was reported as flat fact.
The Mozila/Firefox newsletter and blog had many articles over the past year about how their software keeps you safe from Russian hackers. Yep, that really ups my trust in that organization’s motivations and security. They can keep me safe from phantoms.
Protonmail gave support to opposition groups in Hong Kong last year. Yep, another trust builder for that company. No, it’s the same position as the US government which makes it suspect.

I turn on an FM radio in a rental car today, and NPR was all “Russia, Russia, Russia.”
The government gave me four free guppies for my aquarium. 🐠

I think something happens to people when they get more than a couple of thousand followers, unless they are a known journalist, author, news org, etc.
The hand waving starts about reaching follower milestones. “C’mon people, just 400 more and I’ll have 10K.”
At that point, I suspect that the “worth it” factor starts to drop a lot, and I lose interest and often unfollow.
OK, delete Twitter, but with caution, it can be one of many useful tools.
People start talking about certain ministers in town, and I start thinking, “talks a good game but total tool of the establishment.”
