Sharing this comment on the Russell Brand video to show two things I discuss regularly: hero worship on the internet & how that leads to a similar environment as the one I left in corporate news. When audiences seek the messenger over the messages, emotionally attaching to a personality rather than digesting information with skepticism regardless of who’s saying it, it creates similar bias echo chambers where creators simply stick to safe topics, applauding their audience’s assumed heroes and attacking obvious villains.
Last night was a long one as we attempted artificially inseminating Maisy for the 2nd time. The last go-round in August didn’t take. Maisy is an A2A2 jersey/dexter cross who is hopefully going to be our family milk cow someday. We are grateful for our AI tech @tessdariano who did 99% of the work. There was an ice cream truck circling the neighborhood while the mission was underway, blaring the traditional ice cream truck song, which made for a quite fitting background soundtrack. Three weeks and we should know if we have a lil’ Maisy on the way. Dad’s name is Billy the Kid. He’s quite handsome. Swim Billy, swim!

And in even better news:
HHS has also said it will end the practice of providing bonuses to doctors who vaccinate high percentages of their patients, and other financial incentives provided to doctors for vaccinations.
I am no fan of racist. However, it's an interesting bit of hypocrisy, that some people feel it's cool to take down sites of people they differ with. But, if those they differ with did the same to them. That would be a "hate crime". 🤔
