I get to sing, dance, & be silly with preschoolers. On occasion I google for answers. Sometimes I do theater. (and I drew that pirate ship.)

I’ve been thinking more and more that newsrooms need to hold an all-staff meeting where they invite democracy experts & historians in & really do a massive reset of how we are covering what’s happening in our country right now. It’s not about partisanship but covering reality.

“Oh no! The totally exorbitant wagyu beef 🥩 I ate at that steakhouse last year is even more exorbitantly priced this year?! Must be the president’s fault.”

“Wait, people do that? They make their own steaks at home and don’t spend 130-260$ on one steak at a time? Oh wow, I could never.”

This is my loved one. You all don’t appreciate how difficult it was to interview him as he’s going off this evening to fight the Russians. I’m honestly distraught and have no idea how I conducted that interview live. Sorry for the “uhs.”

Idk about you, but the more n more I hear the argument “We can’t judge our [founders, explorers, etc] by 21st c standards,” the more I think the people making that argument just don’t want to be judged by future gens for their bad behavior today.
