2025-12-23 01:34:27 +0000 UTCYou’re more than right about the crazy and cruelty being let out of the bottle. Someone I had followed for years (a former semi-sane Oscar blogger turned Trumper) followed Trump’s lead and posted some noxious comment about children inheriting traits from the parents, and Nick must have inherited his father’s rage. I try to remind myself that social media is like the sun or the abyss. Don’t stare at it for too long.
