Great response!

Media is paid for by advertising money. Advertisers pay for the most number of impressions sold, not for the accuracy of reporting.

The more controversial and (negative) emotion provoking, the more impressions and this profit.

The media will never report on good things happening, except for an occasional fluff piece.

Truth isn’t controversial, it never is.

Learn to evaluate for yourself. No media source, influencer or celebrity can replace simply looking for yourself. If you can’t go and see it yourself, it probably doesn’t concern you.

Unless you have the power to do something about the information you’re being given, ignore it!

My personal rule is: “if I’m reading it or watching it, there is an agenda behind it.” I always think to myself, “if it’s being put out by the media, it’s very likely that the complete opposite must be true.”

Doubt what you’re being told to believe and go and LOOK for yourself. Don’t THINK. Go and LOOK.

If you can’t look directly and do something about it, go and find something you can directly observe and find a way to help make someone’s life better. Even if it’s just to put a smile on their face.

Oh no. Why did you have to post this?

Hollywood, 2 seconds from now

“Coming in 2025! You’ve seen Cocaine Bear, now come see Cocaine Shark! Starring Seth Rogan, Vince Vaughn, Jonah Hill, a pile of sweaty hockey gear and 57 tons of raw sewage, it’s Cocaine Bear! The movie no one asked for, starring actors with no discernible talent or appeal. Buy you tickets now!”

I feel slightly better knowing that the Chinese suffer from Chinesium-based products as much as we do.

Are Xbox players paste-eaters or something?

Not sure if this is something better implemented in Thunder or within Lemmy somehow.

I’d love the option to only show posts in specific languages. It’s great that people worldwide are jumping on Lemmy, but I feel like I’m playing whack-a-mole with posts written in languages I don’t read.

This feature, combined with an instance filter would make me so happy!

 

I’ve had turkey just about every possible way it can be cooked, and it just isn’t that good.

Doesn’t matter how juicy or dry and it doesn’t matter what herbs or spices are used, it just not that tasty.

Give me a brisket or a standing rib roast or just about anything that isn’t turkey for thanksgiving.
