You had me with all of the pig-related skeets, but lost me on this one. 🀣

Invest in relationships, notice which of your loved ones also invest in their relationship with you, and double down on those who give back. ❀️

Great advice. Talk therapy and EMDR can work wonders. Therapy can also be done 6 months here, 12 months there. So don't feel like it has to be a multi-year commitment at the start.

If you don't have kids, and aren't super keen, consider it perfectly ok to not have kids!

Also, consider regular exercise. 3x30 min per is good enough. You don't have to be a pro athlete or marathoner. Just move regularly. By 45 you can tell who hasn't moved for 15 years.

IL needs to send their NG to welcome the TX NG. Take BBQ and water. Do PT together. Play the national anthem, and then go serve the public by cleaning up school, parks, highways. Maybe even start offering daycare services for hourly employees.

We've got work to do. Put them to work!!

This is so right. We must address SCOTUS, the Senate and gerrymandering at the very least. Probably also campaign finance.

100% this. Even if Dems win majoritites in 2026, or the WH in 2028, we still have to contend with our corrupt SCOTUS, our undemocratic Senate, our extremist gerrymandered districts, and rightwing extremism.

A trump coin: could potentially be used on putting greens but is too fat to do the job.

You're putting a lot on Biden when it was voters who put Trump in for a 2nd term.

When I moved to the UK from the US I was surprised they cover the faces of perps, in the media, when they get arrested.

Because the accused is presumed innocent.

That'show I learned our process is a bit humiliating.

I'm thinking about those killed in Manchester, today, related to the attack on the synagogue. My thoughts are with their friends, family and wider cimmunity. Such needless violence. πŸ’”

OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

I think it marks the start of the end of TikTok US. These acquisitions are very very challenging to do successfully. Insta and Whatsapp are exceptions. Myspace, friendster, Orkut, etc are the norm.

An incredibly important election in a tiny country just went the right way. Moldova has resisted a huge Russian disinformation campaign and will not become a Russian puppet state.
