Imagine how much less polarized and more connected we would be if every neighborhood and town had beautiful, walkable public spaces like this. But apparently, I’ve been told that no one prefers this over endless strip malls.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

Why are people attacking others on the mention of Stepan Bandera? Just. Because. Kremlin. Propaganda. Bogeyman. Works.

-Bandera was not involved in the ethnic cleansing (he was interned)

Don't think there is a better illustration of AI-in-everything-whether-we-want-it-or-not than an AI bro buying an AI toy for his child who played with it for a bit and then seemed singularly unimpressed with the AI and turned it off.

A family launched a GoFundMe to pay for a prosthetic arm for their 9 year old.

This isn't a feel good story.

She was denied a prosthetic arm by her health insurance company because it wasn't "medically necessary."

This is a story about our healthcare system and corporate greed.
