I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.

You know, like a democracy.

It's Villains All the Time We were warned by Washington, Lincoln and others. Now we must oppose this authoritarian regime, firmly voice our commitment to the Constitution and rule of law—and assert what it means to be American.

I think you could concentrate longer than 2 hours as long as the method of teaching changes and continues to re-engage.

a lecture may hold folks for 30 mins, mix it up and start involving people in the conversation and you buy more time. Do a real world demonstration of something and you buy more.

I was interviewed at CES this morning. We mentioned that consumers will decide whether they want to be on a platform that is “unfiltered free speech “ or “ moderated”. I mentioned that I loved @bsky.app , and spontaneously people started clapping 🔥.

Silly behavior begets a silly response.
