The thing making you feel “connected” is destroying connection itself. Smartphones promised community, delivered isolation. The cure Big Tech hates: leave your house, talk to humans. Book clubs, sports, volunteer work. Community isn’t digital. Choose life.

I thought this was a really good OpEd. Sort of an open letter to people around the world shocked and dismayed by US foreign policy under Trump, written by a wise, knowledgeable and insightful American. www.politico.eu/article/us-p...
For most of the world, the US is now a malign actor
While many may be tempted to cut the U.S. off as an ally and partner, I hope our friends don’t give up on us so easily.

Trump’s “socialism” picks winners & losers—bailing out Argentina while Midwest farmers suffer. GOP inflicts pain, dodges blame. Meanwhile they panic over NYC’s actual pro-people policies. Watch what they DO, not what they SAY is happening.

NYC said “hold my beer” to other cities’ hard-left turns. Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s socialist ideology will drive out the tax base, unleash crime, & turn Manhattan into a tent city. We’re digging our own grave. Forgetabaht it.

EXCLUSIVE: We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items.

It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores too.
