Thanks for letting me piggy-back, M. Sim. You rock.
post script (and ante edit! ;-) ): I appreciate that you delayed your "like" of my Taibbi post taking M. Fran, of whom I tire (obviously), to task. I was kinda hoping you *didn't*, just to avoid pissing them off the further! I know you know your "like" is appreciated, but never necessary.
Coverage of recent presidential elections, the coronavirus pandemic, protests against police killings of Black Americans and other events convinced Janis Fort that the media can’t be believed. One station will cover a story that others ignore, she said, leaving viewers not sure whom to trust.
“Everyone tells a different story. The media does nothing but stir up fear,” said Fort, a retired 71-year-old Republican who lives in Navarre, Florida. “For me, and for most of the people I know, we feel like we’re totally in the dark.”
It's a quote of what another person had to say about it. The person quoted was committing "hate speech," NOT the reporter who is actually reporting the real situation. Better yet, I can guarantee that the person advocating for the death sentence lives in Delaware County Indiana and are sick of loony toons in their government.
Fine writer and reader of Substack—we are starting a movement to get a poetry section added to the platform. Can I ask, are you with us?

Working as intended, IMO.
fyi sorry no link, but Marco Rubio on Fox recently is on fire! (About time for him.)
Silver lining: Like for virtually *all* public institutions, public trust is being decimated, and this libertarian says it's about time!
If people can get away with identifying as cats than all bets are off. Wonder what will happen if San Fran approves the reparation plan. Lol
Even though the puppy self identifies as a kitten, he's still a dog.
The baby puppy. Kittens. Dorbs!!
My male cat identifies as Ryan Webb.
EDIT: Overweight and comical.
I wonder if I can vote, bail, return, and vote again? Much wonderfulness today, SimComm! Thanks!!
I may actually come back to MLB.
I'm such a softie.
Awww, that tiny puppy! 😭 😊
He'll be the most agile puppy in the neighborhood trying to keep up with the cats!
Very true!
And he'll always land on his feet, too!
I Love it!!! don’t back down evah!
The cat on the skateboard is clearly the one in charge.
And he's not pleased about current productivity.
Home run!!
Love the story about Maggi! The crowd was wildly cheering for him each time he came to bat. And shoutout to the Pirates so far- who saw this coming?
Andrew McCutchen?
Haha, of course. Now if only he had his hair back...
How dare the newscaster refer to her as a councilMAN! MICROAGRESSION!! DEADNAMING!
Why not? Maybe someone was gunning for him, now he’s in a protected class.
I didn't even notice, which just goes to show you the pervasiveness of bigotry in our society!
People even suggest ‘execution.’ She actually read that.
I think that ‘they’ deserve the same respect as others!

Last I checked that was intolerant hate speech against transgenders......but I haven't checked today's memo and this stuff shifts so quickly........
I love the kittens and the puppy. So so so cute
The Indiana congress guy is.... hmmmm. okay.
When are people going to identify as.... well, we are almost there.
Happy Monday.
