What are abstract ideas like β€œbeing happy” and β€œhaving fulfillment” compared to real world achievements like β€œworking full time for a company and still needing food stamps”

Skydance reportedly in talks to buy Bari Weiss’ The Free Press β€” is CBS News role in her future? Sources speculate that Weiss could play a major role in reshaping CBS News, which has been plagued by criticism of a left-wing bias.

1. CBS sells itself to Trump's billionaire allies for $8 billion.

2. Trump manages to exort CBS for $16 million just for fun, leveraging some fake investigations at the FCC.

3. CBS fuses with Bari Weiss' bullshit machine to create another massive new right wing propaganda outlet.

Easy peasy.

FEMA Is Ending Door-to-Door Canvassing in Disaster Areas As it shifts responsibility for recovery efforts to local authorities, FEMA workers will stop knocking on doors to provide aid to survivors in disaster areas, per a memo obtained by WIRED.

At least 90 people, including children, have died in the Texas floods, officials say.

In May, FEMA workers were told to stop knocking on doors to provide aid to survivors in disaster areas, per a memo obtained by WIRED.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.

This is still developing, and our team is monitoring the situation closely.

Lenny Bruce's Obscenity Trial Challenged First Amendment Rights and Paved the Way for Other Socially Conscious Comedians Branded a "sick comic," the stand-up pushed boundaries with his foul-mouthed routines, which led to his 1964 arrest.

I recently discussed here how the BBCβ€˜s censoring of β€žoffensive languageβ€œ is bad & how similar regulations in the US or Germany are used to censor marginalized communities & sexuality at large - remember Lenny Bruce & George Carlin?

The MAHA Report Cites Studies That Don’t Exist The Trump administration’s β€œMake America Healthy Again” report misinterprets some studies and cites others that don’t exist, according to the listed authors.

"It’s not clear that anyone wrote the study cited in the MAHA report."

Wow. If these were freshman, caught using ChatGPT that made up bogus studies, they'd get flunked or worse.
