They didn't. You just decided to interpret it that way.

Air conditioning is a luxury much of the world can't afford.
Anna Taylor-Joy is weird.
She's absolutely magnetic on camera, but I don't know if she's actually that attractive in the real world, or if it's just that she looks great on camera.
Reminds me of how (IRC) some Hollywood insiders call actors Lollipop people. Huge head, big eyes, tiny body. Looks great on film, face really fills up the frame, you can see their expressions better, relatively small body looks normal sized.
It's like the Simpsons joke where they go to a film set, and someone explains that cows don't look like cows on film, so they use horses.
That's good to know because you can use this:

Where does it say that Slovakia is a Baltic state? There's a comma there for a reason.
This isn't fair.
There's a bug in one of the most recent security updates on windows, something to do with the size of the recovery partition, so at the moment plenty of windows users aren't updating or failing to update, and it's not as if windows has fixed it yet either so most users are stuck waiting on it.
In other words: sometimes far too many updates, sometimes not enough (timely) updates, often broken updates.
I strongly suspect Discovery was written and acted by people who have never seen actual shit or suffered trauma.
If they had, perhaps they would realise that people who've been through a lot are often the (seemingly) calmest or least emotional person in the room when shit hits the fan. It isn't their first rodeo. Or they're bitter and angry arseholes. Basically Jean Luc Picard or Liam Shaw are far more realistic portrayals of people who have gone through shit.
Hyperreality.
In the 1960s postmodernists theorised that in a sufficiently technologically advanced society, it becomes impossible to tell reality from the simulation of reality - the hyperreal you see on tv, social media, etc.
The sad fact is that for politicians reality is less real than the hyperreal. If crimes goes down in the real world it's not necessarily that relevant, because voters will only vote accordingly if the simulated/mediatised version of reality shows crime as having gone down. The hyperreal has more real consequences and becomes part of public perception and even history. Reality often doesn't. Real life events often only have real life consequences, if the simulation of reality presents them as having happened in the way they actually happened.
Further watching: Videodrome (1983), eXistenZ(1999), the Matrix (1999), Paprika (2006), Inception (2010), etc.
IRC heavy duty trucks are exempt from many federal safety regulations that apply to cars.
PSA: many of them were/are already freely available on BBC sounds, especially because it was the 60th anniversary recently.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually someone else who's been able to hide how truly wealthy they are.
Eg. the former British queen and the royals used judicial decrees and their opaque influence to secretely alter laws, in order to hide how rich they actually are. Guardian
I think we can all agree that the worst thing about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is that procedure may not have been followed correctly in UK parliament.
But hey, they've passed a call for an immediate cease fire, which I have been reliably informed is very important and means Israel and Hamas will now stop fighting.
Mission accomplished.
