Short term thinking has its place- but not in the marketplace of ideas

Wow! Stunning!

One of my idols

Lovely- Like an old New York

I was inspired in these conversations and I hope you will be as well! At Amazon, Routledge, and perhaps in your bookstore!

Good morning, world! Right now it's the basics that bring some constancy and solace in the midst of a drumbeat of rage and fear. A simple breaking of bread.

Yes!

Heartbreaking

Quite dreamy!

"Nona's Supper Club," is the latest production of creative powerhouse, Amy Poux (Indie Shorts Filmmaker & New York Women in Film awards) whose film short "Do Nothings" won awards in film festivals from Tokyo to Chicago. The stellar cast and poignant story of "Nona's Supper Club" is not to be missed!

It’s almost surreal. Until I remember it’s real.

Nona’s Supper Club is a deliciously human and hilariously told family story. It’s a must see!

I have disentangled from the metaverse and am working on Google, which is harder. ZOHO is a suite of apps including email, calendar, writing, and project sharing. It is also a beneficial company.

Amie- are you on Flasher?its Bluesky’s version of insta. Quite good and more and more artists each day!

Thank you!

Lovely! We trade off bringing coffee in bed- whoever is up first. 38 years, it’s the little things, isn’t it?

The marketplace is a bitch-huh, Elon?

We are witnessing a government for which the expertise sought after is now, how soon can you destroy humanitarian institutions rather than build them?How cleverly can you engender hate rather than tolerance? And how well can you serve a master rather than a people? There is no safety in silence.
