What I’m reading: Doppelgänger by Naomi Klein. Through analysis and sharp storytelling, she examines how our public and private identities are constantly shaped by the forces of media, politics, and consumer culture.

A perfect example of what WE CAN DO!
Sheryl Crow:
“My parents always said you are who you hang out with.
There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla.
Money donated to NPR, which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes the truth will…find its way to those willing to know [it].”

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.
