I guess we’re fully back to newspapers and magazines glamourising wildly unhealthy diets. Here are some things that will happen if you starve yourself:
-hair loss
-loss of muscle mass and bone density
-stomach ulcers
-loss of your period
-osteoporosis
@timewarpoets No the way I lovee Goodreads interface and I’ve used it since I was in 8th grade!!! But I do love the data from story graph so now I use both
Children die in school shootings and it’s “not the guns”.
Mass shootings claim lives multiple times a year and it’s “not the guns”.
Kyle Rittenhouse shot 3 people during a protest and it’s “not the guns”
ICE kills Alex Pretti, and suddenly it’s his fault because he “had a gun”
@united If gate checking was unavoidable,I would get it. But there were multiple spots above my seat and around me in economy plus that was available for bags. So not only was it an inconvenience but completely unnecessary
The White House is framing whole milk in schools as a nutrition win. It isn't.
Whole milk and low-fat milk have the same protein, calcium, vitamin D, and 13 essential nutrients. The only difference is about 50 extra calories and 5 grams of saturated fat per cup. There's some observational data suggesting kids who drink whole milk weigh less, but it's all high risk of bias, and no randomized trials have shown whole milk is actually better for them.
What would actually improve school nutrition: giving kids more than 10 minutes to eat. Scheduling recess before lunch. Funding kitchens to cook real food instead of reheating processed products. Paying cafeteria workers competitive wages so schools can actually retain staff. Upgrading equipment that's decades old. Offering more menu choices, including culturally appropriate foods. Pre-slicing fruit so kids will actually eat it.
Those cost money. Swapping milk cartons costs nothing and gets you a headline and whatever the hell that AI milk video was.

We used to call this transmedia planning (shout out to Henry Jenkins and MIT Media Lab). When I worked on HBO we’d activate more than a dozen supplemental niche touch points for some campaigns to supplement the main media buy and PR push. Didn’t matter if these elements didn’t scale. It was all in service of the narrative promoting the premiere. Gave super fans a treasure hunt spread across the entire internet. We had a True Blood audio upload on a random platform that got ~1000 unique streamers (same day we did a $200K IGN roadblock). Those 1000 true fans mattered just as much as the 1M impressions we got on the HPTO. This was before everyone got obsessed with performance metrics. Before algorithmic feeds. Media planning was storytelling and craft. The most special fan service things didn’t scale bc that wasn’t the point.
Your ear has a cochlea which has tiny little hairs. Any sounds over a certain decibal basically kills those hairs and they can never go back up again. That's why over time people lose hearing. Movie theaters, concerts, construction, clubs, bars. More and more of those little hairs die. I started carrying around @loopearplugs in my purse. And whip em out like an old lady anytime I am near loud sounds. 🤣
Rina Sawayama asks artists’ creative teams to do more research before referencing other cultures following Sabrina Carpenter’s SNL performance:
“big love to Sabrina ❤️ but fellow artists creative teams... if we are clearly referencing a culture please can you do so with the research, respect and care it deserves. Shoes on tatami is jail 😭”
Good! People should want to adopt because they WANT to adopt!! Not because they can’t have children the traditional way. Adoption isn’t build-a-bear. You have to have the mind to be able to handle all the challenges that comes with it.
