When Fox dumped Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly, their replacements went right back into the usual Fox schtick with little or no effect on the popularity of the network..  Their biggest ratings challenge came when they (briefly) tried to inform their audience of the fact that Biden won the 2020 election.  The audience was having none of it and started moving en masse to Newsmax and OAN.  Fox quickly made an about-face and reverted to telling the audience what it wanted to hear.

The core Fox audience, the source of the Murdochs' wealth, DEMANDS to be lied to.

One of Carter's less heralded but most significant achievements...

This clip is mislabelled.  Diana Ring did not join the series until 1966.  In any case it was a great show and an unforgettable theme song.

I agree that a high fiber diet is very helpful in cleaning out.  It's also important to understand the difference between soluble and insoluble fiber.  Soluble actually may slow down your digestion but will ultimately produce a good clean result.  Insoluble will move through you more quickly.  I think it's best to have a balance between them.

I have for a long time expressed my wish to be cremated when my time comes, but once I became aware of the environmental costs incurred, composting seems like a much more sustainable option.

The funeral industry still has tremendous influence and will try to keep people locked into the traditional (and more expensive) options for as long as possible.  Green burials are now legal in Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, and Vermont.  Hopefully they will soon be available and used in many more places.

Saw a preview screening of this a few days ago.  Its a hot mess -  excessive, epic and over the top.  At 3 hours its way too long, but has a few great scenes amidst all the trash.  I'm not recommending it, but I know there is an audience for this kind of film.  If you are interested you should definitely see it on a BIG screen.  Its a BIG film, though not a good one.  

I really liked this film.  In addition to the very compelling story of Giancarlo Granda, it puts the whole affair into historical context by providing lots of background on the origins of Liberty U and the religious right movement.

Angry escorts.  Crankypox.

I had some problems with this series right from the start, but it was compelling enough that I stuck with it.  My reservations started with the title, since the show never attempts to explain the history of anarchism and the different views on what anarchism actually is.  A more honest title would have been "The Anarcho-Capitalists" or "The Hedonistic Libertarians".

The series is centered around a group of mostly privileged upper middle class Americans who decide to create their own little utopia in Acapulco, essentially a colonial village with little or no interaction with the local population.  Over a period of several years we see the "community" fracture and attempt to regroup.  Initially I found little to identify or sympathize with in any of the characters, but as it got darker it got better.  The final episode was especially strong and at least somewhat redeems the series as a whole.

I think its worth watching 

I've pretty much had my fill of true crime series, but I decided to take a chance on this one.  Its only three episodes and its about revenge porn, a subject I pretty much ignored when it was in the news a few years ago.  I'm glad I watched it.  The villain was truly deplorable and the woman who relentlessly pursued him was awesome.  Very entertaining.  Its on Netflix.

This is a Swiss drama about an ambitious gay man in the corporate world who is forced to return to the farm where he grew up to deal with a family crisis.  Each member of the family seems to have a lot of secrets, and by the end of the second episode everyone appears to be on the verge of a meltdown.  I have no idea where this is going but its off to a strong start.

I watched the first episode and got the impression that the script was written by an algorithm.  I'm out.

His ad says he is 'Very Hairy' yet he has 11 completely hairless pics.  Other than that he is exactly my type.

THE LAST MOVIE STARS (HBO) documents the lives and films of Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward.  Newman was easily one of the sexiest men of his era and Woodward was a truly great actress who, for reasons explored in the series, never reached the level of stardom she deserved.  I've only watched the first two hours so far, but have already compiled a list of their films I want to see again (or in many cases, for the first time).

Highly recommended.

Excellent new doc about the Jane Collective, a network of women who worked to provide access to safe and affordable abortions at a time when it was illegal.  The best thing about this film is the women themselves, many of whom only agreed to participate when they saw that we were returning to the days of back-alley coat-hanger abortions.  I remember that era, but it was still shocking to be reminded of how little agency women had in those days, not only on the issue of reproductive choice, but many other things that are taken for granted today.

I had a great time with Tony.  He's the real thing and a nice guy to boot.

Very sexy man.  When did he retire?

I was late to the game for this show, but once started I ended up binging it, something I rarely do.

Great show.  I love the relationship between Sam and Joel.  Can't wait for season 2.

I don't know if it's because I use Safari, but it tells me it can't open the page. Thanks anyway!

I also use Safari so it must be something else.

Fuck yeah!

Until recently I was able from USA to read RM reviews with https://nl.hideproxy.me/index.php and now it's not possible anymore. Can I ask you how you can do it? Technologically limited here...

Thanks!

I use this website:   https://hide.me/en/proxy

Copy the RM address into the hide.me page, check all the boxes under 'More options', and click on 'Go'.  Any of the proxy locations will usually work, but if one does not, try another.

Hope this works for you.
