- It is finished. After 734 hours and 28 minutes of research and writing, I finally have drafts of all three scripts complete! Script 1 - 28,107 words Script 2 - 24,768 Script 3 - 30,026 Total - 82,901 At my normal speaking cadence, that 8 hours of content across 3 videos. Filming will begin soon!
- This is the result of allowing states to individually rebrand Medicaid. Nobody gets their health insurance through "Medicaid." If you're in California, it's Medi-Cal. TennCare in Tennessee. MassHealth. SoonerCare. DenaliCare. Bayou Health. Etc etc. There are 50 different names.
- Has there ever been a non-evil person who has that squiggly temple vein?
- Just awful: A 75-year-old man just died in ICE custody, ICE has revealed in a notice to Congress. But here's the rub: This man, a Cuban national, was first paroled into the US in 1966—nearly 60 years ago! They were set to deport him anyway. Details in my new piece: newrepublic.com/article/1974...
- This is really on the democrats for running on a policy of not doing any of this.
- Crazy how everyone's favorite feature on Ground News is the blind spot feed.
- Vidcon was this last weekend and you wouldn't know it by looking at any creator's social media feeds. Most people I know skipped it and the few people I know who went didn't say a word about it. It sucks how irrelevant that con has become. 😕
- Okay but, season 3 of Andor set between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back where they discover the second Death Star and get ready to help the Bothans. I don't care what you call it, just follow the same characters.
- Speed is such an amazing movie.
- Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock were both 30. They made this on a budget of $28 million.
- The cops are so unbelievably competent.
- Wait why would they speed up to intentionally jump the track at the end?!?!
- You are not alone. (Watch this even if you don't play the game, it has almost nothing to do with that.) youtu.be/Ro3yVfE-oxQ
- @stefanmilo.bsky.social Please explain the Roman dodecahedron in Andor when Star Wars is supposed to be "a long long time ago."
- So everyone's still on Twitter, huh
- The US Court of International Trade sounds made up tbh Be honest, you'd never heard of it before yesterday.
- Hichews are what Starbursts pretend to be.
- Just wait until the rifle qualification level where the battalion sends all 500 of you to the range at the same time - even though there are only 10 working lanes.
- I just want to wake up and not feel like the world is falling apart.
- I mostly abandoned reddit after the app debacle, but looking at it now, wow, wtf happened? I'm looking at r/videos and in the top ten, there are two threads with a single-digit's worth of upvotes and 0 comments. r/mealtimevideos still features posts from 7 days ago. Did they change the algorithm?
- Hey, PBS NewsHour, me again. Stop referring to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget as "nonpartisan." It's embarrassing. @pbsnews.org
- Without child labor, the mining industry will collapse!
- Yeah, it's not movies, TV, music, or video games that exalt these weapons of war. It's the museums. 🙄
- If your house announces to me that I'm being recorded as I'm walking on the public sidewalk, just know that I'm flipping off your house every time I walk by.
- I understand that people want doorbell cams for some reason. But it's another thing for your doorbell to audibly announce to people on the street that they're being recorded for walking by. "Hi, you're currently being recorded! 😀" 🖕
- Whoa whoa, hold up. The Ask A Ninja guy came back and nobody told me?!?!
- Hey, they can't do that!* *without months, if not years, of litigation, that will result in a financial slap on the wrist.
- **at which point, they will have done it, but will promise not to do it again.
- Are any of you going to vidcon? Seems like fewer people go every year...
