TMI 09/27/2024 – “How We Win” Contributor Ben Manski on His Part in the Guidebook to Securing Our Future, How the Climate Crisis is Destroying the Insurance Industry as More Disasters Keep Happening, more

You’re heard of the conservative playbook “Project 2025”, a top-down authoritarian guide to how they intend to restructure every aspect of our nation to cement their backwards vision of society – what if there was a book that took the entirely opposite direction? Joining us today, Ben Manski is a contributor to that book, “How We Win: Energizing Strategies, Voters, and Agendas”, a work that gives us as INDIVIDUALS the tools we need to create the progressive world we want to see, a world working for EVERYONE, not just the super-rich. Listen in!

Then, we look at how disasters like Hurricane Helene, driven by climate-crisis-charged rapid intensification, are ruining the ability of the insurance industry to have our backs as we try to recover from losing our homes, health and lives to these ever-increasing calamities. All this and more on TMI for Friday, September 27, 2024 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

TMI 07/12/2024 – Uber Girl’s Essay on False Prophets and the Murder of Pauly Likens, A Deep Dive Into the Future of President Biden’s Campaign for Re-election, more

TMI starts differently than usual, with Aldous reading you a short essay written by Leslie “Uber Girl” James on how, far too often, we find people using religion to control, to harm, to encourage others to hate. She masterfully delves into how these false prophets and their twisted agenda led directly to the brutal murder of 14 year old Pauly Likens, a child who was not protected by the loving God these men claim to represent.

Continuing the unusual episode, we then dive deeply into the legitimate issues surrounding the viability of President Joe Biden’s campaign to be re-elected in November. The solutions offered should only be used in desperate need, but how much more desperate a need is there than defeating Trump and Project 2025?

TMI 12/15/2023 – Is the Filter Bubble the Wrong Mechanism to Explain Social Media Toxicity?, How Trump’s Project 2025 is a Next Level Disaster for the Climate and more

We’ve reported here on TMI on Eli Pariser’s “Filter Bubble” concept since its debut in 2010 at his Ted talk: the idea that Google was selectively feeding results back to the user that the user agreed with, making it so that one person’s search results were often vastly different than another’s. Mr Pariser pointed out that by putting us all in these Filter Bubbles, we couldn’t agree on what was even factual. A new article published in the PNAS (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences) journal, however, says that is all wrong when applied to social media giants like Facebook, where they aim to increase your focus and time spent there by enhancing the chance of you getting made angry by what you see. We examine these competing concepts.

Then, we go over how the media is gleefully playing up any and all minutiae of Trump’s intentions for his second term except for one key part: how the Project 2025 plan that he’s assimilated is catastrophic for any chance we have to keep the environment from completely collapsing.

Finally, we present an update to a story we went over a few weeks back, putting a spotlight on how the EV infrastructure promised by Biden’s funding in 2021 is FINALLY starting to come to fruition. All this and more on TMI for Friday, December 15, 2023 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
