Holy shit! After Megyn Kelly gave a free pass to pedophiles Trump and Jeffrey Epstein to fuck children, this 14-year-old girl just gave Kelly a brutal reality check. 😳👇

This is really helpful. G Elliott is right: social media is now anti-social media. It’s not the FB or Twitter of the late 2000s. AI and consumption-driven algorithms don’t connect us to our friends and family. And it makes us negative and wastes precious time. Less is more with social media.

We saw the brilliant British pianist Paul Lewis at Princeton‘a Richardson Auditorium Thursday. If you haven’t heard his Schubert or Beethoven, do! Utterly transcendent!

My Horizon silver health plan is doubling thanks to these greedy, vile republicans in Washington. Argh! Glad NJ helps out (some) with healthcare assistance. I do love my home state.

Yes!!
Forgive the Revolutionary War symbolism.

Today, NJ & VA were at a pivotal moment — just like during 2 defining periods of the Revolution. This time, two strong women stood against the pull of authoritarianism.

NJ & VA became beacons of victory & democratic strength for a nation needing it.

A lot of people just don't understand how unpopular Trump is to everyday Americans www.gelliottmorris.com/p/a-lot-of-p...
A lot of people just don’t realize how unpopular Trump is
The backlash to ABC/Disney canceling Kimmel shows why it's important for businesses and the public to understand that two-thirds of Americans are not Trump voters

When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same.

Middle age is going for a 3 mile run, getting lost on the route, and ending up going on a 5 mile run! 😓

This is a travesty. Musicians spend thousands upon thousands of hours on making the music. Yet all the big money being made is by corporate parasites. Find a way to support the musicians you love, and don’t treat it as a commodity you deserve to consume for free.
“Average musician makes $12 a month on Spotify. The fact that they are not even able to sell a record and it’s taken from them by rich motherfuckers on streaming platforms who get paid royally by record labels,Ticketmaster, merch companies. They’re all fucking getting paid, except for the musician.”

Crisp, chilly autumn day. Sometimes the weather calls for simple, but delicious, homemade white bread. Today is one of those days.

God, she’s good.
AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.
