RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol

America is now one big bet on AI

It’s seen as the magic fix for every threat to the US economy

The most important human story in the entertainment industry right now is the severe downturn in film and TV production in LA and how it's affecting middle-class crew workers. I spoke to dozens of them for this story about the depressed Hollywood economy. www.wsj.com/business/med...

In a city of world-class artists and production crew hunting for the next gig, Andrew Cuomo made a TV ad the same way he wrote his housing policy: with AI.

Then again, maybe a fake Cuomo is better than the real one?

There was a moment, 2013-2016 or so, when I had just the right amount of work stress for healthy growth. Like I could give a reasonable amount of effort and be proud of the work I was putting out into the world.
