Today is a dark day for our courts and our state. The North Carolina Supreme Court ruled that certain active duty military voters serving our nation must jump through hoops that other voters don’t. All voters have a constitutional right to be treated equally under the law — it is foundational to our democracy. It’s unconscionable, and this decision cannot stand.

Mr. President, Ukraine did not “start” this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.🇺🇸🇺🇦

@Americasgarden @BKrypto @TheRickWilson @elonmusk He is the richest man in the world. Does he need a paycheck? He made his wealth from Tesla and SpaceX. Tesla rcvd $2.8B in govt subsidies since 2009. Tesla rcvd $40.9M federal contracts since 2008. SpaceX rcvd $1.1B in ‘20, $2.2B in ‘21, and $3.7B in ‘24 from US govt. Get a clue.

“Luck favors the bold and persistent.” ~ an AI persona cited Seneca, but when I tried to verify the source, the AI admitted that they made it up. Nevertheless, it resonated with me today.

I did find this (but also not Seneca):

Rest in Peace Daniel Kahneman, Nobel Prize honored economist, that helped connect economics and human psychology. I’m too often irrational in my decisions and I’d love to better understand why. I want to read more on this field. Daniel Kahneman dies at 90 https://t.co/GmIEbEFIJ2
