My understanding is that, less than the sugar itself, a big issue with early exposure for children is more the presentation and marketing - sugary food is rarely beige.

The colorful presentations, often with cartoons and rainbows, tends to attract kids, pump dopamine and breed addiction until you need all the junky foods to compulsively feed the monkey. Bad early habits turning into lifelong health issues.

Rule 1: we will never do XYZ

Rule 2: we are unrepentant liars

Rule 3: We want to burn the world down while we watch from bunkers

You’re arguing a pont without purpose, it’s both. They always have a hopper, packed full of bullshit, and constantly ready to deploy. It’s definitely intentional timing, go read up on his relationship with roy cohn and bannon still advising from sidelines. This is how they operate

There’s no WE in what you do, friend. You’re on an island of one. Don’t collectively speak for leftists, that’s another very non-left trait of yours.

This is next distraction away from his complete failure in Iran and his green, moldy swimming pool. He’s giving $300 billion to Iran in his total surrender, what’s the total amount of assistance to be withheld in funding here?

Also Tim cook quote, “you’re so great Mr. Trump, we had an army man, nake you a special trophy just for you. The base is literally a gold bar that I’m illegally giving you. Isn’t that fun, you’re so great trump. Thank you trump. I love you trump. It’s such a joy to socialize with you trump”

Sightly paraphrased

Is that phone truly Linux based, have expandable memory, a temeable battery, etc… and does it have a team actively supporting it to maintain and expand those features? I’m saying I’d pay $200 for what they were describing IF real people were building a movement away from the same black apple/samsung rectangles, locked into deep Google surveillance fed back to palantir.

You’re not an actual leftist, leftists work from reason and a measured response. You’re a right twitter troll embedded in Lemmy of all places? Good luck with the mission, bud. Keep paying Elon that monthly fee for the “real” truth, hat only you can find…

You’re working to manufacture a truth you want from something so thin. Bigger than that, you’re spending time on twitter willingly, which is extremely telling - You have zero credibility.

Someone like Fetterman showed his ass, that one isn’t a stretch and nobody had to “catch” anything. The bad people can’t help but show you who they are, loudly and frequently. Whitmer doesn’t have that history. There’s also a reason right efforts would want to have a story that confused search results for her name - our broken justice system just released one of the men who was rightfully convicted of plotting to kidnap the sitting governor.

You’re working TOO hard to makes this single, likely manipulated example, the reality you want. I hope you know on some level that you’re actively dishonest and trying to trick people, because otherwise you are just so lost.

Where she went:

At $200… Maybe.

AI slop video, no faith in what will (or likely won’t) be delivered.

Now that days have passed, participants are publicly denying this is what was said and claiming that audio was manipulated. OP is willingly pushing far right BS misinformation and has a post history demonstrating similar acts in bad faith.

Get off of twitter, OP.

You are tge one who introduces false premises without credible support and then you are here arguing them as if confirmed in your own unsubstantiated thread days later? You’re a mess, friend.

So I actually work as a lawyer for one of the production companies putting this together. I was just in a meeting discussing licensing needs and we were given a walkthrough of the outline for the screenplay. This is just posted on Lemmy, so nobody will see it. Be cool and don’t repeat. Here is what I remember…

• 100% going to be a rich person with a scottie dog wearing a top hat as the villain (big chance Kevin oleary, as Hollywood likely wants to launder that evil ghoul now that they have precedence) owning all the property in the city as a slumlord and living in a big hotel on park place that he owns. He has a yacht that looks like a battleship (game-piece) and in front of his house, a statue of himself on a horse (game piece) that’s also the hood ornament design on his fancy old sports car (game piece). His butler irons his tie with a little golden iron (game piece) in opening scene. He basically “holds all the pieces”.

• Hero, named Chance (like the game card), is going to be a kid born on the wrong side of the (Redding Railroad) tracks, who is buying small run down properties and improving them with inheritance found in dead grandpa’s old boot (game piece). Signature trait is that he always carries his lucky dice around (game piece).

• As hero rises up, the temporary set back to overcome will be that they “go to jail” for something, but only temporarily.

• Comic relief will be that the villain, who hates the rising hero, fumes one day as they open the paper and see that the hero ALSO won a beauty contest?!?!?

• Climax is that villain buys Atlantic ave building where hero’s sick grandma lives and raises rent to $10k a month on an apartment she lived in for 60 years with grandpa who has died. Grandma sews gifts for hero (thimble, game piece). She’s going to be homeless. Grandma’s name is Elizabeth Magie (a reference to the actual original creator of the game when it was actually “woke” to the max and called “The Landlord’s Game”).

• Everyone in town pitches in at a big block party to form a community chest (game card) to pay Grandmas rent. It’s summer and kids are playing in the fire hydrants in the street. Villain owns the utilities and shuts down the water as a fuck you. But a firefighter who we see briefly as Chance’s childhood friend from “the neighborhood” shows up and uses reserve tank on firetruck to spray in the air for the kids.

• Knowing that will only cover temp rent, and villain will just raise rent further (will be some lazy vague reference to a trump figure allowing that corruption). So hero will take community chest money and sell all his properties to villain in a deal that feels like defeat. Villain gives deed to grandma as part of deal. She warns him to “be careful paying that Landlord’s Game” (she said the thing! She admit it! #hashtag)

• As villain now gets ready to evict all the families and bulldoze all the cheap properties to build mixed use buildings that are purchased by foreign investors and sit empty with crumbl cookies on ground floor, hero uses villain sale money to purchase a single building, the building villain lives in. Hero has the doorman (fast talking new york type kid, named “Go”) keep villain out of building. Villain owns a media company and has “news” film him dumping a golden wheelbarrow (game-piece) of money into a glass box in front of the building, he then issues a call to the city, “This is my corrupt doorman, Go. Go wants to stop me from improving this city and has locked me out of my building. So, whoever can help me PASS GO, will COLLECT $200 (million) DOLLARS!”

• then big fight chaos scene, Go knows karate or something, kill bill music plays, the scottie dog somehow ends up stealing the money in the chaos and finds another dog (comically different dog, lassie or something) to run away with. Also, in middle of everything, someone fires a giant antique cannon (game piece).

• Hero finds all the evidence of villain crimes in the building (the golden iron from opening scene was key to a vault door) and villain then goes to jail, for real this time. Villain’s property gets seized and new mayor (a mamdani analog) sells all back to hero at auction for a single, symbolic dollar. Hero then gives ownership back to all the families and ends as the “good billionaire” who owns fancy park place hotel but let’s poor people swim in the pool!!!

• And they probably have mark Cuban or an appearance helping the hero somewhere, because “good billionaires” are all around us!!! And because shark tank reference, do you get it!!! Probably a “just visiting” stop at jail with hero to see the villain. And they leave together driving villains antique sportscar.

• post credits scene: You see the dogs again relaxing on a tropical beach with butlers bringing steaks. Camera pulls back from beach in a crane shot and you see that the beach town is a realistic version of the Game of Life board.

"Democrats shit in my pants, AGAIN? Impossible!!! It had to be an inside job… These are $700 trump brand security pants with AI anti-diarrhea technology in the butt and real gold Bible verses stitched into the crotch to repel gay boners? These liberals are just too computer, someone needs to stop them from having Paramount plus subscriptions so they can’t learn from the CSI"

Lawyer here: This is NOT legal advice as I’m not OP’s retained counsel and I don’t know all facts obviously, but on initial scan something isn’t right… The posted story really stinks and this seems like a pretty shitty case overall. I would not take the work - I mean MAYBE if they were paying a lot, but it wouldn’t be my number 1 priority, would be a number 2 at best.

Appreciate the caveats, but in the age of AI fabrication like breathing, if the only source is a nazi twitter post, makes a lot of sense to wait for the larger context. Whitmer hasn’t really shown this in her character, so we will see.

Doesn’t hurt that OP has a pretty fraught post history on top. Some good philosophy mixed in, but someone who is definitely lost in middle of it all.

You don’t understand how lead ins work (article mentions both news and morning show working under traditional models) AND you’re trusting the numbers of CBS, a known corrupt, non-credible entity in the process dismantling it’s long meaningful reputation.

These things aren’t calculated 1:1, that’s a child’s POV.

Fuck this data center moment generally, but where is source of lead image/headline, OP? This is the only quote from her in your article?

“I will only ever open Michigan to companies that respect our strict environmental standards and protect our air, land and water, the Barn meets all those high standards,” Whitmer said. “Here in Michigan, we are setting an example for the rest of the nation, the rest of the world, for that matter. We have the right guardrails to ensure responsible adoption of AI and create jobs.”
