Friends — I’d like to talk with you about a difficult subject. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-a-national-trauma

We are witnessing in real time how intractable humans are in a belief despite all evidence to the contrary. One of the most difficult things for a human to admit is that they’ve been fooled.

Just deleted the News app from my phone. I can’t handle it any more. Watching our democracy crumble in real-time is unbelievable. Time to focus on community, love, and experiences.

Beautiful Anthem by Sasha Allen. 🎶 Violence doesn't happen in a vacuum It's a lesson many still have yet to learn That when your policy is lined with disregard for human life You cannot be surprised when things like this occur There's a full-blown fire in America And a fascist on Air Force 2 🎶

Congrats to @colbertlateshow.bsky.social for the Emmy! The fact The Studio won anything does make me question the validity, however.

If the AI bubble bursts, “it could put the dot-com crash to shame—and the tech giants and their Silicon Valley backers won’t be the only ones who suffer.” theatln.tc/TMZZuCv7

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

These three paragraphs are so spot on

Identity politics is the most clever & destructive force of our time. Get humans to align their identity with a belief so all productive conversation stops and they will die before changing their mind. Harness human nature for political gain & species annihilation.
