The case for banning social media for children seems inarguable, writes Simon Kuper. 'It has worsened teens' mental health, empowered criminals and shattered people's concentration to the point of making the world stupider.' www.ft.com/content/4c7d...

I have decided to stop shopping altogether on Amazon. Canceling the WaPo was not enough to make a strong statement. I have found that everything I buy on Amazon, I can buy locally, or from other sites. And, EBay does have free shipping. Yes, I will pay more, but in America you VOTE with your money.

I know our President thinks it's ok "to feel the pain", but I think the average persons pain level is quite different than his! No idea how much you've lost...but I can feel the pain!

Do you think he will follow his own words of wisdom? Look at the date he posted this.

Brilliant!!
Dropkick Murphys just had an epic moment at their show:

They made a friendly wager with a fan in a MAGA shirt—“Let’s see where it’s made.”

Then they checked his MAGA shirt tag…

Made in Nicaragua.

They swapped it with a Made in America Dropkick Murphys tee.

Legendary.
