I really do dislike the divide our society now has. Just had to block/unfriend 3 friends on FB because of their views. I dislike what Trump did to our society. Up is down. Left is right. Down is up. Right is left. You disagree for anything and you are like the black plague.

But it's okay to say NO and ENOUGH. And I just had to do that. And I do not regret it. It's okay to disagree, but don't be a complete jerk about it.

Russia is Preparing For A Long War

Good rundown of domestic political moves within Russia and how they play out in continuing the war.

You can build and sell virtually anything to the Russian government.

In political terms, “eternal war” is increasingly becoming a cornerstone of the Kremlin’s narrative. Putin has no other vision to offer.

Tuberville may cause a practice that I've always hated, the Senatorial "hold," to be rethought or, hopefully, removed altogether.

since we are everyone and everything: From experienced in every profession and field to long time residents who know the most about local cultures and stories, to fact checkers who can clear up a fake claim or photo within minutes.
Twitter allowed that in a fast moving, searchable, curatable feed with Trending news items and links to a wide variety of reputable and not so reliable news sources: IE MULTIPLE news sources.

So tell it like it IS, not like you decided it is.

We'd appreciate it.

Twitter was a valuable outlet for governments to issue health advisories, instructions in disasters and fires, and much more.

It was a place for companies to see and respond to questions and complaints about their products and services. I've had a few things resolved via Twitter.

It gets irritating when talking heads pretend to know what we're doing and thinking at social networks without taking the time to pay attention. Not one mention of the de facto public utility Twitter grew to be reliable for:

Major world disasters, wars, incidents, sports events, cultural matters, politics and even command, control and communication for Arab Springs. We came to Twitter for video and eyewitness accounts even our corrupted news media don't have.

I wrote this as a reply to a YouTube yakking head who talked and talked, but MISSED the most important things about Twitter. Thought it might be of interest here for when these people irritate you as much as they irritate me: It's a big thread.

Nothing good happens when the article begins with "Florida man".

Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Elon Musk engaging in wild anti-vax speculation about Bronny James' cardiac arrest.

For some time now, I've encountered people who feel that you should never say anything mean, or wish any harm on anyone ever, or show "negative" emotions like anger.

What in heaven's name do people think those emotions are for?

When someone intends to hurt, kill, oppress, and enslave others, when they create poverty, war, hatred, bloodshed, and sickness, inequality, and bigotry, though I'd love it if they changed, I'm also okay if they drop dead.

Convicted and stopped works, too.

I can't afford to pay all these news services but wish I could support solid non partisan news reporting and investigative reporters. Why can't they get together and set up a service for which one pays $12/month and gets a smorgasbord of news access for which services are paid based on how non biased their reporting is? I believe many more folks would pay for that than currently pay for 1 service.

Like, rate them from this place: mediabiasfactcheck.com/
