Oh yes, I grew up with Walter Cronkite, from the assassination of JFK, MLK, RFK, Man on the Moon, Apollo 13, etc.to culminate with entering the Ronald Reagan era and then his retirement. Yes, now news is dead. We now have shallow and unverified activism. The protected source element of good investigative journalism has given way to masking unfounded claims and accusations in maneuvers of said activism; prove your innocence as anonymous sources can be quoted in what is libel masked as journalism. News and talk shows are exactly as you say, nothing more than likes…the equivalent of likes on any Meta platform. Open contribution platforms like Wiki, make research about as reliable as family gatherings for making informed decisions. 🤦‍♂️ Thank goodness AI, automated idiocy, is still an option vs a mandate. It’s a sad direction for which critical thinking has made a wrong turn and few seem to care. 🤷‍♂️

Ahhh, why push? Oh, tossing a pickaxe wasn’t the correct tool to help him get across the thin ice?

Hmmm 🤔, I’m old fashioned I guess, but a news station should be nothing but objective in reporting; unbiased news. A special segment for editorial opinions, commentary, or opinion journalism used to be clearly separate; such as Commentary by Andy Rooney, sometimes dubbed the Grouch-in-Chief for his many editorial commentaries of life and politics. For example is railing activism against the common news practice of reporting weekend traffic deaths across the US in the 70s. Did doing away with those vivid reminders to drive safe and get home safe make us safer and less stressed drivers? Or more carefree commuters, ready to live and drive like there’s no tomorrow? I can’t say that opinion journalism has given us an answer to that question as they don’t perform investigative journalism annd follow-up unless it serves their interests. Of course their interest is most likely wrapped in a presentation of being in the public interest because…without public support their activism falls flat. The so called news segments within this chapter shows the lack of investigative reporting giving way to activism thru news media by hosting guests who rally support for their cause; in this case, overturning the recently elected government by the very party that was losers in the free election. The reporter, by name only, as no real reporting of unbiased news was presented, did appear to be nervous with the guest appearance. Was this a reluctance due to being a blackmailed pawn for Father? Or just normal nerves of whether their show will catapult them into even higher paying news…ahem, activism journalists pay. I’m not sure what to think of the news anchor and their part with this guest. Meanwhile, Will is not happy but maybe for multiple reasons. I believe he knows deep down that the PM has dipped his toes into the burning pits of political power plays even against him, yet he has an uneasy feeling about this thrusting movement by others to pit him into ousting the PM…without his knowledge, his input, or knowing his desires. Hmm 🤔, much to consider in this rapidly changing world of Will Carter.

My, what juicy thighs you have. Butt to gravy that backside is mouth watering.

Yes, perhaps better to maneuver them via the link than to cut their opportunity for control. False plans and force movements would be critical though as the main move will probably be a one off, so the initial test of their false intel must be subtle but verifiable. If time critical, a Hail Mary will work…with a little faith. 🤣

But they must keep that internal deep dive into the mole/leaks; that person and that comm link established must be cut; right now the chessboard has had all moves orchestrated using their own intel and Father’s forces to execute, even the muscle attacking Will was a pawn sacrificed to their cause.

Clear and decisive, if I only had a heart ❤️.

Agreed, rough night of pain. Very early meal for meds requiring food, then I had a wonderful sleep not witnessed by me for a good while; I slept until around 1110 this morning.

Stepford Hubbies? 🤣 I’m not a sports enthusiast, and have no understanding of the NFL or drafts, of multi-million dollar babies. Whether real world drafts or people building their own team picks. Too many people are radicalized these days, so I’m not sure I want to step out into the wilderness, where bodies are hidden, with a bunch of guys toting various weapons they’re wanting to test fire whether seeing game or not. Nope, I’m not the keeping up with the Jones type.

His fate…sealed with a kiss. 😚 Such a simple thing, one little…emotionally wrecking, ever so doubtful…that it’s accepted, even more so that…it should be a thing returned with that same feeling, …pulling at your heart and twisting your gut to the point of choking nausea. Yeah, it’s just one simple little kiss.

Yeah, congratulations. Of course it’s probably due to Blake’s homework assignments where everyone had to give their thoughts.

But he’s a tough critic and hates his own books, so what is it he really wants? He has shown a special interest in Steve, perhaps admiration. Does he he more of himself in Steve? Or is it envy and payback, what tie in to the statement Clovis repeated back to Jason and Blake that made them flinch rather quickly? Is there a revenge or payback satisfaction element in this for Blake?

You’re not hating a friend just because you let them know they’ve become obsessively stupid.

Jason doesn’t have to give up on Blake, he just has to let Blake know his limits and Blake’s own weaknesses will guide him…to better pursuits.

It’s very tough to claim rights as a Journalist Reporter, and all it’s latitudes, while still employed as a teacher with obvious conflicts of interests on his choose of story. But closer to home is his own conflict of interest, …Jason. Jason is somewhat amused, and to some degree already piecing this puzzle together quicker than our failed Journalist. While Jason seems somewhat amused, I wonder how much he has learned in church confessions that help him have faith and confidence that the kids aren’t hurting anyone…for even like the dance, they seem to return more than they collect in terms of value. So should the teacher continue to force his hypothesis and agenda, he will find himself losing the love he just reclaimed…while getting a failing grade when he scores his own work.

Oh yes, very common; even ramen soup bowls in vending machines, especially train platforms. Those hot vending items are great in the winter.

They will soon have half the stores floor displays as security cages; that or have the display item only with pull slips for the register, where you paid as they are pulling the items from restricted employee only shelves. 😢

Ahhh 😯, but the kitty is crawling at the loose thread that’s helping each and every busy the so called detective has predetermined to be nefariously ruining his home town. He’s so preoccupied with and judgmental of his student that he can’t see beyond what he has already judged to be going on…even to Jason’s amusement. The teacher forgets that even he made profit from his old car and got a much better one. Hmmm 🧐. Now, KYLE, sends the teacher to come face to face with…

Nothing wrong with coffee, if you like it. I’ll take a soda or chocolates to caffeinate. 🤣 Actually with much time in Japan back in the day, the high quality and high potency green tea was my favorite and it was reasonably priced back then. Now it’s dang near a bank loan to buy the big bag…if can even find it. 😣

The Horse escaped his corral and is running free as a Mustang, but this Mustang is a bad apple and an embarrassment to the force that will have a bad image if one of their own is at large under questionable circumstances.

The future will reveal more as to whether Nana Bev is in her normal element or not. I want to believe that she may have been somewhat overwhelmed with having something important and yet family related in her life again; so a little liquid courage that became a spigot left on constant low. Many true alcoholics can mask the inebriation fairly well, so as to may you think they’re not too bad when in reality they’re just short of a face plant. Nana Bev started out pretty well, but kept spilling a splash here and there so as to reach the unfiltered and uninhibited…, not the conduct of a guardian parent and especially an adult trying to win guardianship over a minor for which they have had little recent contact. i too am very frustrated and disappointed but hopefully, so too will be Nana Bev. Tomorrow morning, and after a conversation with Doc Mom, hopefully Nana Bev gets her head on straight and finds courage that’s not sealed in a bottle. If unable to see herself fit to win the fight, then I hope Nana Bev sets the boys up to be able to have emancipation means that will satisfy any immediate court concerns: but then still be a better family member that Jack needs and wants so disparately.

But being stroked by others is what gets the going, though they have witnessed many strokes that they’re glad don’t hit them.

Well…better than a sticky mess. 😇

The good news is the disorder may throw Kenny into lockdown, therefore the Not Doing Anything NDA may survive until a huddle for a new spin from the Chaos Mischievers.
