While the global news cycle is winding down to take a little break and people all over listen the Pope’s “urbi et orbi” Spiel speech, I’ve decided to use this space to cover so-called “women‘s issues” and to highlight yet another episode of Bridget’s “Dumpster Fire” series (over at phetasy.com ).
People who follow my writing across the web already know that I have covered Bridget’s insightful remarks many times over (e.g. both here [1] and elsewhere, e.g. “MAGA Country” [ https://branding.photo.blog/2024/11/16/maga-country ] ). Bridget almost never fails to get me to laugh crocodile tears, and her latest production kind of “takes the cake” (with frosting, no less).

Bridget’s “main stream” (“men stream“?) commentary is a must-watch. Her astute coverage is proudly opinionated. Yet (unlike the “NoAgendaShow” [2]) she falls short of breaking free from an advertising model (including the “algorithmic” censorship model [1]). What did surprise me is that in her current episode she has apparently won over Hillsdale College [ https://www.hillsdale.edu ] as a sponsor.
In my humble opinion (“where I remain” — to quote John @ NoAgendaShow), although the mainstream remains dead in the water, the abysmally low rate of literacy also will not budge an inch so long as unenlightenment is viewed as modern, vogue or whatever. [3]
