Watched One of Us (2017) from Netflix
Directed by Heidi Ewing, Rachel Grady. With Etty, Chani Getter, Ari Hershkowitz, Luzer Twersky. Penetrating the insular world of New York's Hasidic community, focusing on three individuals driven to break away despite threats of retaliation.
A painful documentary to watch. It’s fine for communities like this to exist and even flourish, but they should not be so insular so as to force people to live within them and deal with tremendous abuse and lack of choice.

Definitely the fluffiest of the morning shows today. In all this morning there was too much featuring of Trump administration officials blowing fluff and pushing blame without taking any stance toward leading on the situation.

📺 "Queer Eye" Unleash the Sexy Beast | Netflix

Watched "Queer Eye" Unleash the Sexy Beast from Netflix
A married bartender and father of two who lives like a messy bachelor needs to pull it together in time for a parent-teacher mixer.
Not as solid an episode as most: the makeover wasn’t as drastic and the “dad bonding” was as compelling a story. I love this guy’s accent though.

📺 "Queer Eye" A Decent Proposal | Netflix

Watched "Queer Eye" A Decent Proposal from Netflix
With Bobby Berk, Karamo Brown, Tan France, William Mahnken. A scraggly film buff reboots his life - and his non-existent grooming habits - to give his girlfriend an award-worthy marriage proposal.
Right out of the gate you’ve got to love that they’re featuring Dahlonega, GA, my hometown! Oddly very little seems to feature anything in the town as most of the setting is in the Atlanta area or near South West Atlanta. The only exterior shots are out in the countryside on the couple’s dirt drive.

This guy would have been a couple of years behind me in school, but I didn’t recognize him or his name.

From a story perspective this one was pretty good and the makeover was phenomenal!

This is great! The more citation of sources, the better. If I want to check those sources, though, I often wind up spending a lot of time searching within source articles to find passages cited implicitly but not explicitly. If those passages are marked using annotations, the method I’ll describe here makes that material available explicitly, in ways that streamline the reporter’s workflow and improve the reader’s experience.
