Good news. The Tinder Swindler just nuked the Tiger King by more than ten million uniques in the first week on Netflix. Now I won't have to pitch "The Tiger King of...." deadline.com/2022/02/the-ti…
Netflix is the Petri dish of "what people like" but there are many obscure and mainstream franchises they could keep mining... I am still waiting for TinTin2, Taboo 2 and the Kominsky Method 3, Maybe even some of the earlier series like Young Indiana Jones that failed on TV.
Now I have an awkward question. Since Netflix made bank on the misfortune of these ladies..shouldn't Netflix help with the financial mistakes that make up the heart of the story? washingtonpost.com/arts-entertain…
Although there might be room for one more bite at the Lyin King franchise. Er sorry Tiger King

If you are watching Fox and Tucker rail on about Ukraine its worth remembering that Fox led the charge into the worst military debacle in American history. CBS is guilty as well. Fox showed the least carnage. cmpa.gmu.edu/wp-content/upl…
Carlson is literally saying that Putin is the good guy... just keeping his western borders secure. Putin doesn't care what Tucker says, but it's disturbing to see a U.S. news channel portraying NATO as the bad guy. An old Trump harangue. motherjones.com/politics/2022/…
The only thing stopping Putin from retaking all of post World War Russia...is NATO. A nervous America who didn't want extra U.S. casualties killing of the last of the Nazi war machine. So we traded much of Eastern Europe..not Western Russia.. to Stalin. nytimes.com/2021/12/05/wor…

if you have ever watched hundreds of thirsty camels drain a man made, truck supplied reservoir in Central Somalia you would know that a lot of what passes for agriculture in the Horn is not sustainable. We have the same problem here. aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/8/…
Centuries of overgrazing, monoculture crops, supply side growers, population growth and poor management is killing land off, leaving it useless to humans for food or water. Here is a great depressing interactive map of what we are losing.wad.jrc.ec.europa.eu
We know we are screwed. Humans are greedy and selfish. Free stuff promotes growth. Fish, flora, fauna and forests will vanish. Yes, population growth will level off as nations become more affluent but how long can we live on Jim Bakker food buckets?

1973: A tiny and fragile Roger Stone pays operatives to infiltrate the Democratic Party for Richard Nixon. Yes that's Paul Manafort on the right, back when he spun commie war lords as freedom fighters. dks.library.kent.edu/?a=d&d=dks1973…
America was consumed with the idea that a President would use dirty tricks during an election. Some of the insiders threatened to talk unless they were pardoned. newyorker.com/news/daily-com…
Stone was outed as a bagman, who would take cash from wealthy people and make things happen politically. worked for Nixon, then Reagan, then Trump. Remember. Stone is infamous for moving money. A Serial Bagman as he is described. here:propertyofthepeople.org/2018/09/07/fbi…

“Mr. Prince is separately under investigation by the Justice Department on unrelated matters, according to people familiar with the case. The scope of that investigation is unclear.”

Oh it’s pretty clear if you read UN reports on Libya nytimes.com/2022/02/08/us/…
“Mr. Seddon owns a cabin that he keeps stocked with guns, food and other supplies as preparation for a cataclysmic event in the United States.” RubyRidge 2.0?
This is not really new. Fuckery Flashback to 2016 and you can meet another cast of characters doing the same thing. #WhereAreTheyNow? whowhatwhy.org/politics/gover…

Before there were influencers there were bored rich kids. This 2003 doc called Born Rich is notable for the kids lack of branding, lifestyle selfies and impressive inability to articulate. Ivanka, a model, complains about how rich people have feelings too.
There is an interesting bit where Ivanka shows off her childhood room on the 60somethingth floor and talks about how her granddad developed more real estate than anyone else. She is Daddy's little girl. rawstory.com/ivanka-trump-2…
Most of the kids in the film inherit not justreal wealth but managed wealth and are scared shitless grandad will cut them out of his will. They never knew they were simply tax writeoffs. vox.com/the-goods/2018…
