MEASURE FOR MUSK (So must Alex Gibney be measured! )
After Shakespeare, Measure for Measure, Act 5, Scene 1:
A woman kneels: Mariana of the factory floor. She speaks for a man the film festival has already weighed:
MARIANA
“They say best men are moulded out of faults, And, for the most, become much more the better. For being a little bad: so may this maker,
Who swears a picture cannot stand as true,
Yet hangs four hours of judgment on a man
He would not sit to hear. Oh what cold virtue keeps the Lido reef, Lend but a knee.
If every film be drawn through private eyes,
Through history, and humour, and the heart
That chose the tale before the tale was told,
Then call it what he called it: not the truth,
But one man’s measure. Mercy is the rest.
He has said as much himself.”
“Objectivity is dead. There’s no such thing as objectivity. When you’re making a film, a film can’t be objective.”
Alex Gibney, to David Poland, Melbourne International Film Festival. And again, on camera, EnergaCAMERIMAGE, Toruń, 2022:
the idea of an objective documentary is “a myth.”
“Everyone brings a point of view. Bias is inevitable.”
Mariana of the shop floor continues:
“So may the man he measured.
So may the man who measured him.”
Measure still for measure. 🤷🏻♂️

@ABridgen Wondering if they will actually be gentle and considerate when wiping my arse and changing my nappies if I manage to survive into my late 90’s? 💩🧷🧽🪣🛀🏾
Imagine the following scenario:
One day in the future, all world leaders agree to ban money on the basis that it’s the root of all evil and that too many people hate billionaires and trillionaires. What would happen?
To acquire a truly comprehensive answer based on data sourced from the most qualified and learned intellectuals, as well as current and historical written works, it would take more than a lifetime of reading. Should you spend the rest of your life in a library reading every relevant book on the subject of money, or ask a trusted, audited and approved ‘AI bot’ to help you?
AI is not evil; human interpretations are the problem. If someone or a TikTok algorithm told you to kill yourself, would you? 🤷♂️
Denounce: Marx’s Das Kapital, GWF Hegel’s philosophy’s, Hitler’s Mein Kampf, hereditary monarchal succession, and all religious scriptures. Embrace Thomas Paine’s true democratic ‘Rights of Man/Common sense’ call for liberty and freedom. (Including free speech).
Recognises that governments in their best state are a necessary evil and in their worse state intolerable. 🤷🏻♂️
This video closely matches a well-documented 2019 animal cruelty case in Coachella, California.
On April 18, 2019, a woman was captured on surveillance video approaching commercial dumpsters (the type used by waste disposal companies) behind a Napa Auto Parts store. She carried a clear plastic bag containing seven newborn puppies—believed to be terrier mixes about three days old—and placed or tossed the bag into or next to a trash receptacle. Temperatures that day were in the mid-90s°F (around 35°C). https://t.co/Ronk5qBf6i
A person rummaging through the trash discovered the bag roughly an hour later and brought it to the store. Animal services responded and rescued the puppies, who survived. The woman, identified as Deborah Sue Culwell (then 54), was arrested a few days later on suspicion of animal cruelty and abandonment. She was later charged with multiple felony and misdemeanor counts related to the incident. In August 2019 she pleaded guilty and was sentenced to one year in jail (with a portion served via work release). https://t.co/X0rdnxQw21
Authorities also found dozens of other dogs at her residence. The case drew widespread media attention because of the security footage and the extreme vulnerability of the very young puppies.
Similar cases of puppies being abandoned in trash containers or plastic bags have occurred elsewhere, but the details of a woman using a commercial-style plastic garbage container in that specific manner align most closely with the Coachella incident. If this refers to a different event or you have additional context (such as a location, date, or video), more details would help narrow it down further.
