I do find it a bit rich for a journalist to complain about blurring the line between news and commentary while referring to herself as Dr.

It’s technically correct as she has a PhD, but it’s in media and communications, so it does make her an expert in the area she’s commenting on, however representing herself that way without clarity in the short bio or article is misleading nonetheless.

Dear diary, today I did not plant trees. I visited a trees community online. Seemed different to expected. Followed their instructions and now the world seems different.

Logging in makes it easier for them to track you across devices and apps. Do you mean a burner for each time you access it from a link?

Legion is what first made me notice Jean Smart. With legion, watchmen, hacks, Fargo she’s had a huge last few years

I find av club from the onion pretty good. It’s a bit fangirly on many shows, but it’s clear from the articles which are serious tv shows. I pay notice to anything hbo release. I like sci fi and sci-fi communities tend to discuss sci fi shows. I also watch out for particular actors and actresses that I find good.

Posts like this help, ut usually more organic discussions are where you’ll find new stuff that’s good.

Is 1000 people a lot? I wouldn’t have thought so if this is a campaign rally. Seems like not much to the story either way.

I don’t know if it’s related, but my tv does not load the plex app correctly. It stalled on loading and gave the option to restart. Then restart with data cleared. I did so. Got to Home Screen eventually, but when I log in, it is now blank.

Given the public statements, it will be difficult for them to offer more and still have any authority. However, a strike or similar would also be a poor look for the rba after multiple interest raises. They would seem more out of touch.

Raising interest rates to fight inflation works by reducing demand. Jobs get lost so people have less money. So they spend less, so prices drop to be more competitive.

Only poorer people obviously. Rich people are less affected, but still pay more in interest. The increased number of unemployed people means competition for jobs is higher so workers are cheaper to pay, increasing profits again.

High inflation is bad for everyone, but particularly so for the poorer, too. However, measures to fight it should be spread across society. Instead blunt tools like interest rate rises disproportionately affect the poor. They should be combined with higher taxes on business and high earners and high net worth individuals. Worldwide we only really do the first. I wonder who decides?
