Author of “Triggered” upset because Canadian TV station reruns 2014 TV cut of bad movie that does not feature his Dad.
If we could bottle the sense of perpetual grievance here we could abandon fossil fuels tomorrow.
The President has tweeted about the fact he no longer is featured in a Christmas showing of Home Alone 2 in Canada (tying it to the Canadian leader of course, because that is what skillful diplomats do), and its been a big story on State Media
The fact that it is all obviously false shall not deter the outrage machine. Trump has been censored! We are under attack!
The best part of Trump being edited out of Home Alone 2 movie is the chance to remind everyone that the only reason he was in it is because he forced producers who shot movies at his hotels to feature him in a cameo. Most had the good sense to cut him from the final edit.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation can easily make this right: simply agree to run President Trump's entire filmography huffpost.com/entry/donald-t…

How can someone urge that governments gut funding from speech it dislikes without acknowledging 1st amendment problems? Or praise Hungary's approach to higher ed that drove an entire university to leave? The goal is a fascistic control of higher ed. 1/
nypost.com/2019/12/22/con…
For some conservatives, Hungary is the model of government control higher education to aspire to. To be blunt, it is the government taking partisan and ideological control of campus with no respect for free speech or academic freedom 2/
There are conservatives who sincerely care about campus speech. And there are those who see campuses as ideological opponents to be dismantled or controlled. The two views are incompatible, although the latter are drawing talking points from the former to gain broader appeal. 3/

New in @PAReview: Human Capital and Administrative Burden: The Role of Cognitive Resources in Citizen‐State Interactions.
We point to a human capital Catch 22: those most in need of services will struggle most to overcome the barriers they face to get them
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
There are many dimensions to human capital. We focus on executive functioning and the ways in which the experience of scarcity (which often means poverty), ill health, and aged-related cognitive decline worsen the executive functioning needed to manage administrative burdens.
We point to work showing that the ordeal mechanism perspective from economics has offered an incomplete understanding of how people respond to frictions. Paying more attention to human capital differences can help us better understand how burdens may exacerbate inequalities.

Medicaid work requirements:
*don't increase labor force participation
*reduce health insurance access for the poor
The Trump administration and states like South Carolina are using them *because* they limit access to healthcare 1/ ccf.georgetown.edu/2019/12/12/tru…
South Carolina is a primary example of the targeting of administrative burdens, imposing work requirements on low-income parents. Even exempted populations - such as the people with disabilities - have to demonstrate they are exempt. Many won't and will lose coverage. 2/
Courts have repeatedly blocked these work requirements,
so why are red states and the Trump administration doubling down on them?
Because the goal of the requirements is to limit access to health insurance, not to facilitate it. 3/

#Triggered “Witness” Seems to be Describing the Previous Administration of Obama-Biden-Clinton’s Collusion With Foreign Governments Before During & Since 2008 & 2012 Elections▫️

Wonder Why There Was No Similar Alarm Then▫️

@POTUS @freedomcaucus @GenFlynn @DagmarUnger
Remember: Barack Obama when he asked Dmitry Medvedev to tell Mr. Putin to go easy on missile defense until after the 2012 election.

Here's a fact: Obama promised Medvedev more flexibility after the election. And then canceled missile defense systems for Eastern Europe.

Joe Namath's rookie contract was the largest in professional football history. Not among rookies, among everyone.

His knees were so messed up that the military gave him deferred service. He used to have to get them drained during halftime so he could finish games.
Despite this, Namath made the pro bowl in his 1965, his first season, and was named Rookie of the Year. He was a first-team All Pro QB in 1967, 1968, and 1969, earning AFL MVP in the latter two seasons.

(Side note: in 1969 the AP named him 2nd-team All Pro *AND* league MVP.)
Shortly after, injuries began to mount. He missed 9 games in 1970 and 10 games in 1971 before playing 13 out of 14 games in 1972 and again being named first-team All Pro, this time of the post-merger league.

Missed 8 more games in 1973 before winning Comeback PotY in 1974.

#OSHO

The #mind is always ready to go on a trip because it is only in trips that it feels alive. #Meditation simply means sitting silently, doing nothing, not even #thinking and the mind disappears. Because you are not on any trip, the mind is no longer needed.
The #mind is a guide for great journeys. If you are going somewhere, the mind is very happy; in your going somewhere the mind can feel enhanced. But if you are not going anywhere, just sitting #silently, doing nothing, the mind feels very #sad.
It will happen almost always to meditators that when the mind feels sad, it starts creating #boredom for you; that is a strategy of the mind. The mind is saying, "Come on! Let us go somewhere, let us do something. Why are you sitting? Just sitting doing nothing brings boredom!"

Here's my theory regarding the Ten Days. This is based on what I've learned, Q posts and most of all common sense. Why shut down the TV and internet? This will be done to keep the wrong stories from spreading. Rumors and disinformation are often used by the DS to instill fear....
....Think 9/11. Think of the chaos that could have occurred if Twitter, IG or FB were around then. Now remember ALL the news channels talking about 8 or 9 or 10 possible hijackings that day. Why do you think that was said on live TV? That was the DS keeping people in fear, AND...
...that was used to carry out other parts of the plan (see Delta 1989 Cleveland Airport) So for these reasons alone, I think Q Team has a very solid basis for shutting everything down. The only news we will get will be from the EAS and by extension from POTUS. This was not done..
