At 95, I'm still smokin'! 😝 I’ve learned two things: Never waste a good cigar. Never trust anyone who says you should ‘act your age.’ 😉👍🏻

And yet we all know what TikTok is today because Bytedance spent 3 billion in ads in 2018…

🚨 CUBA BLACKOUT UPDATE ~ EVERY VENTILATOR PATIENT IN A HOSPITAL JUST DIED. READ THAT AGAIN: The power went out. Again. Third time in March. Here's what's happening right now: – 10,000,000 Cubans have NO electricity tonight. ALL 15 provinces. ENTIRE island. – A witness reports: "Every single patient on ventilators died tonight. I don't have words." – Cuba has received ZERO oil deliveries in 3 months ~ their president confirmed it Friday – Running on 40% of needed fuel. Hospitals postponing surgeries. Medicines rotting without refrigeration. – Russia sent a tanker with 730,000 barrels of oil. US Treasury BLOCKED it. Diverted it to Trinidad. – A second Russian tanker ~ the "Sea Horse" with 200,000 barrels of diesel ~ also blocked – Trump March 6: "We cut off all the oil. Cuba will fall. Cherry on top of the cake." – Trump March 16: "I do believe I'll be having the honor of taking Cuba. Whether I free it, take it, I think I can do anything I want with it." – US sent $6,000,000 in "humanitarian aid" in February. While blocking ALL oil. That's theater. – Cuba's 6th nationwide blackout in 18 months. The worst one yet. – UN warned Cuba faces "humanitarian collapse" NICU babies. Dialysis patients. Ventilator patients. All at the mercy of a grid that keeps dying. Save this. Share this. This is the moment it escalated beyond policy into something else entirely. I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨

ICE and DHS are active in The U.S. Virgin Islands. That's the Caribbean. Those terrorists are now active in the Caribbean, and they're kidnapping Black people. I SAID THIS WOULD HAPPEN. I said the U.S. is trying to colonise the Caribbean, and ICE and DHS are a paramilitary force

Too much of the overall advertising discourse is focused on startups. Advertising used to be sexy and interesting and cool. The closest any commercial profession could come to the practice of art. You people have bastardized it into performance paid ROAS media slop.

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽‍♀️ Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

how long until we’ll need to give an app or website keyboard access and use FaceID for “proof of human” commenting, purchasing, and form completion?

I sounds like a broken record but we are losing the ability to consume information or speak online and the entire left is either not speaking about this at all or basically abdicating this issue.

Well, RIP Reddit

"Anna" shares, " I'm a student. During strawberry season I work in the fields with my brothers to help my mom with the rent. It is very hard because we work piece rate for 2 months-going as fast as we can. There's little work for the next 4 months so we need to save." #WeFeedYou

Russia's main TV channel is airing songs about how great life is without the internet. Getting even closer to North Korea.

Look at what they did to blogging 😭

the payment for players who retired is such a thoughtful touch. i’m happy they’ll get to reap some of these benefits, even if it isn’t *much*

"you will be left behind if you dont start using AI in your writing" where are you all going ... i don't want to join you i don't want to be there.

This is the craziest thing I’ve seen all year

This is what an ant nest really looks like up close and it’s not what you expect.

America if we connected all cities with a population over 500,000 via high-speed rail:
