Watching the MLB All-Star game.

Here's a simple hack if you have one of those insane old remotes like mine with a million buttons and a tiny mute button that makes cutting the BS at breaks a challenge:

Take a small file (even a nail file would do) and carefully notch the edge of the remote beside where the mute is.

Now you can find it by touch in a moment every time.

(De nada!)

"I believe bland coverage of Trump’s horrors has become a national sedative. We aren’t outraged about the eight people sent to South Sudan who then vanished. We now take for granted that hundreds of Venezuelans are being detained at a notorious prison in El Salvador know for inhumane conditions."

"Will we soon all be as blasé as these reporters about potentially thousands of our neighbors being disappeared to countries where human rights are routinely violated?

I fear that we will. I fear that we have normalized evil."

Beneath the #problematic surface, New York Times’ #Kursk reporting reveals a deeper moral rot

At the end of the day, this is just a very simple question of #moral fiber.

As a flagship Western #media outlet, in a country that has long been the center of the free world – but is now facing a moral crisis of its own – The New York Times has an inherent duty to #document these #historic events with some level of moral grounding.
