Incredible. Came for the celebration of Anderson Cooper’s career at 60 Minutes but watched through the end blown away seeing not just reminders of his outstanding work telling stories but the entire history of the show and its legendary journalism.

Q: You believe at some point there will be a definitive answer on whether or not the 2020 election was stolen? Blanche: I’m not going to promise that.

This is incredible. Artificial intelligence getting booed out of the stadium in any commencement speech it’s mentioned. Maybe telling college students AI was taking their jobs wasn’t the best strategy. Must watch —>

Russell here. Good morning. I'm on my way home. I am stopped at the moment. I left at 7:00 this morning. Robert is overwhelmed. His physical abilities are pretty limited for a while longer and now for the first time in 2 weeks he does not have 24 hour people around him. He is also discouraged as am I about Twitter. He has tried to get people to understand the social aspect of social media. If either of us make a post and it is read by 200 people but there are no likes and no comments or perhaps only a couple then the algorithm ceases to put the post on to people's feeds. I have personally witnessed so many people write Robert how they go to his account every day to see what he has written and they acknowledge they don't make comments for privacy concerns. Yetthe algorithm interprets that as a non-worthy post. Twitter's goal is engagement so there is the more visibility leading Twitter to more profits however that works. Robert has tried to tell people the success of an account is not up to the author it is up to the reader. We talked a lot last night and we think there is a 80% maybe 90% chance this account will close on June 1st. And it's not that we want to. We don't care about numbers but we are up against an algorithm. Some of this is because of his recent account being hacked from over 3,000 followers to presently 300. I have personally seen six posts in the last 4 days that were Dead on arrival. We have learned that an average tweet once it is posted has 18 minutes to gather attraction. Yesterday Robert had a post that after 3 hours had only been seen 33 times with no comments and no likes. We understand not everything that we write will be favorable. That is normal. At one point in his life he had a newspaper column for 4 years in Boston. A weekly article and of course nobody knew how many people read it but after it was written it existed. Social media is different. You write something and it no longer exists no matter how much it is read unless people tap the like and make comments. The hardest part of all of this is not only losing the account but something Robert has done that I told him he has to stop doing. He is belittling himself. There are 12 people who he is close with that every single time he makes a post he texts them to know because unless he does that they do not go to his page yet they love what he writes. My interpretation is folks think he will always be here because he posts often You would be wrong to think that. There are some who only check social media every couple of days and I understand that because social media is trash overall. That is what it has become. But the time is coming where people are going to come on here to check in and the account won't be here anymore. Absolutely no one is to blame for this. No one at all. Everyone has freedom and should have as to whether they want to like something or make a comment or check in daily or once a month. The problem is the algorithm. We no longer know how to make it work. Because there is no consistency. If one of the posts is successful and then the following three or four lack engagement then the interpretation from the algorithm is this is not a worthy account. Robert knows I am making this post and part of what he is discouraged about in his words is "If people are tuning in for my death then they can just leave. I would rather people tune in for my life." It is true that if I make an update about Robert in the hospital it will be seen a minimum of 1,000 times and then he will write something of great significance and it will be seen 200 times. And this happens every time which is why recently he has said no more details with the updates about his health. He is not going to be anybody's drama or victim. We love you all and we have no issue with anybody here whatsoever. But the algorithm is controlling all of this. We agreed that even if only 10 people read something we wrote that is worth it. Yet that leads to algorithm lockout. ❤️❤️
