Movies, art, kindness and repeat.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs.

A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut.

If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

Robert “Ed” Smylie, the NASA official who saved the Apollo 13 crew in 1970, has died at 95. He cobbled together an apparatus made of cardboard, plastic bags and duct tape after an explosion crippled the spacecraft as it sped toward the moon. nyti.ms/3Sbusb3

Our new reality… “Programs now facing funding cuts address pediatric cancer and treatment for veterans. The federal government already issued a “stop-work order” on Harvard research on Lou Gehrig’s disease.” Trump has and will cause tremendous pain for Americans.

While many are focused (rightfully so) on the damage to 401Ks and retirement savings, China is reaping all the rewards of this terrible policy. And should I even call it policy? It’s a dumbass who doesn’t understand trade deficits.

Breaking Away still holds up. Watched with my 8th grade daughter and she was a bucket of tears at the end.

Finally finished watching all of this years Oscar nominated films. Always just an opinion, but Conclave for me was the best of the lot and a level ensemble acting excellence that was just pure joy to watch.
