Look for a copy of Jonathan Haidt's "The Anxious Generation." It contains both original research and some of the more significant studies about social media's impact on mental health, particularly with respect to Gen Z.

I find this image to be an extraordinary convergence of decisions

 

For example:

La Fiesta (Thai)

Mamma Mia's (ramen and poke bowls)

Golden Dragon (BBQ pit)

Kyoto Express (hand-tossed pizzas)

Café Blanc (shitty Subway knockoff)

Muammar Gaddafi was dragged out of a drainage ditch by Misrata militia members, partially stripped, and repeatedly stabbed in the ass with something sharp (it's tough to tell from the video, but it's some kind of stick or knife). They then chucked him onto the back of a truck, but he fell off onto the ground as they pulled away. They then stuck him into an ambulance. He was pronounced dead at a hospital a short time later.

I'm bending the premise a little bit: The Boys is based on a graphic novel and bears almost no resemblance to the source material. I think the show is way more compelling and engaging than the graphic novel, probably because the show is written to be aggressively topical, while the graphic novel concluded over a decade ago.

I'm sorry, I just don't recognize those, but I'd love to learn them!

Judge Kacsmaryk's lips are surgically attached to Trump's ass cheek, so CBS will be ice skating uphill in this one. They may as well take every swing they can.

 

A small bright spot in a dark timeline.
