Some things are not like the others🤔
Just want to point out that best actress and best supporting actor are two separate categories. Check your dogma at the door. 
Like Ryan Gosling, America Ferrera was nominated (and rightly so) for best supporting actress. Any complaints there?
Honestly, I think Ryan Gosling is padding. Robert Downey, Junior, is probably going to get best supporting. But that’s my opinion.
Here are the nominees for best actress in a leading role. This is Margo Robbie’s competition. Not Ryan Gosling.
Annette Bening (Nyad)
Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon)
Sandra Hüller (Anatomy of a Fall)
Carey Mulligan (Maestro)
Emma Stone (Poor Things)
Sorry Margo, but there are some pretty solid performances here.
Best actor and best supporting actor are two separate categories. Margot Robbie was the lead and Ryan Gosling was in a supporting role. Stop with the apples to oranges comparisons. They cheapen the ACTUAL problems of inequality.
Evangelicals often claim they’re being persecuted but truth is, they’re just not very likeable.

How about turning Mar a Lago into the Trump presidential library? Plenty of “his” documents are already there.

"I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies: 1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. 2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. 3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things."

Thanks so much for this series of posts and perspective!! You’ve fully validated the way I’ve been feeling for quite some time and I’m glad to know that I’m not alone!

These groups are relatively small, but because of their high profiles on social media and disproportionate representation in the media, people think the groups are larger then they are.
People who are not in this group of hyper-partisans know about politics and care about politics—but they do not spend hours watching cable news or scrolling through a politics feed.
What I've been calling the panic-outrage cycle is a symptom of these groups.

You can still be found dead in a hotel room so all’s not lost.
Watching this documentary on PBS and I am weirded out that I was completely unaware of this. I was born during this time period and thought I had a pretty good idea of what was happening in the late 60s. Blown away at this history I’ve been deprived of knowing for so long.
It’s not that I want to disengage from politics and related current events, but I’m pretty much done with all things Trump. No more clickbait, no more channel surfing. It amazes me how certain media outlets have so many people on payroll willing to drone endlessly about “what if?” Is he going to prison? Is going to be president? It’s just tedious. At this point I’ve come to terms with the fact that my span of control is voting in November and waiting for verdicts. The rest is nonsense.
