When you really think about it, isn’t capitalism the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time?

“Earlier this month, Mr. Musk referred to Social Security as “the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.”

In troubling times, people experiencing high stress or crippling anxiety deal with it in different ways. Some have a therapist, some have a deep breathing exercise & some even have a personal mantra.

I love this so much!

At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions.

This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.

He is right. The a look at who will be on the platform at the inauguration on Monday. Three dudes, Bezos, Zuckerberg and Musk. They are getting ready to divide up the world between themselves, with the tacit permission of Trump.

Oh you can say it, but be warned if you say it in front of me. I bite.
“I feel liberated,” said a top banker. “We can say ‘retard’ and ‘pussy’ without the fear of getting cancelled . . . it’s a new dawn.”

Business in the age of Trump. Sounds liberating.

I highly recommend this Movie. The casting is flawless. The period of Dylan’s career the movie chose to highlight is a critical national turning point, and the times eerily reminded me of now. One can only hope they will be “a changin.”
