That’s a power stance! Look for “Amy Cuddy: Power Poses” on YouTube.

First ICE said they were going after illegal immigrants.

Then they started going after anyone who looked Latinx or Hispanic.

Now they are going after Clergy who are standing close by.

If you wondered what it was like to be in Germany at the time of the rise of Hitler, now you know.

What benefits do these tech execs get from these appointments?

I guess we need a glacier calving (?) expert on BlueSky.

I’m wondering about that too!

My extremely small sample shows that Trump supports may not believe the criticism about the bill. They will “wait and see.” Democrats need to keep up the messaging because not all of the impact will be felt before the midterms.

No, that’s closer to bottom tier. It’s clear that the speaker really means “I want to end this conversation” which risks creating ill will. A top tier ender would be gracious, such as “I wish I could talk longer but I need to go.”

Do you really recommend we “deify” Musk and Trump? Really?

Wow! Small world. I loved it. I had my own company for my final years, doing only high tech board searches. Now that I’m retired, I still find myself being asked to Chair the Nominating Committee on nonprofit boards.

Wallace and Gromit are claymation characters. These days, with the world in turmoil, clever playfulness can be an antidote. It’s about Wallace’s solution to not wanting to walk Gromit, the dog. Let me know what you think.

I went right to Amazon to order it and, blushing, see that I purchased it several months ago.

Have you seen the Wallace and Gromit film “The Wrong Trousers”?

I guessed he missed that brouhaha about her not being a “real Doctor”?

Here’s the dilemma we Democrats face. When our candidates talk about certain issues, it activates MAGA and gets them to the voting booths. How do we navigate that?

Oh, now I understand your concern.

Your tax dollars at work?: “The Department of Homeland Security receives hundreds of television show pitches a year,” she said in a statement. “Each proposal undergoes a thorough vetting process prior to denial or approval.””
