Just posted: My latest TED talk. I look at technology from the perspective of human ultrasociality -- deep needs for community and communion. From that view, you can see how social media, edtech, and especially AI block human flourishing

Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.

France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend

@AnaliliaForNJ Almost every member of Congress, male or female, has raised kids. Well, except for your friend AOC.

@GovSherrillNJ How did we ever survive as a state for 200+ years before this?

Reels make you retarded.

We should get our adversaries addicted to Reels.

Hey, wait a minute! 🤔

So proud of @altcap and his standing ovation at the State of the Union for helping to create Trump Accounts, an amazing initiative passed into law that deposits $1,000 to accounts for all babies born between 2025 and 2028 in index funds of U.S. stocks.

@AnaliliaForNJ @HathawayForNJ11 where does that math come from?

[John Ferris 🇺🇸🅾️ @JMFerrisJr]

We need more of this. 🇺🇸

The USA hockey team is the biggest breath of fresh air in sports in years. It feels like old school America just a little bit right now and I’m really fucking proud of that team and my country.

@LeeBryantUT @Super70sSports Funny you didn’t think it could be the Women’s…or both. Be proud. Be happy. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@SenSanders How about we shift the SS and Medicare tax burdens from labor to compute? Make labor 20% less expensive and compute 20% more expensive. Would also address affordability overnight and the looming entitlement funding crisis. Maybe shift the income tax burden also. Let’s solve.

@GovSherrillNJ It’s a snowstorm. Of course we will. Happens several times a year most years. Cleared our driveway to the blacktop by noon. It’s really not that big of a deal.

@ryangrim Really? You pay the highest taxes in the country and the city spends the most $$$ per resident of any major city in the U.S…all for the collective privilege of shoveling snow off the sidewalks and streets yourself?

@jamestalarico @mcherenson Minor fact check, this is the primary candidate running against Talarico that Colbert refused to provide equal airtime. Ask yourself why? Talarico trails Crockett in most polls, yet she is considered the weaker candidate for the general. Colbert was trying to illegally favor JT.

@ABC Weird that your editors chose to omit this song from that story. Weird.

[John Ferris 🇺🇸🅾️ @JMFerrisJr]

@ABC That’s what you lead with? There are also songs about the Israeli hostages and victims of Oct 7 and the protestors in Iran. But OK.

[U2 @U2]

Song of the Future honors the schoolgirl uprising in Iran and the life of 16-year-old Sarina Esmailzadeh, one of thousands of Iranian schoolgirls who took to the streets as part of the Woman, Life, Freedom movement in 2022. These protests were sparked by the death of Jina Mahsa Amini, a young Kurdish-Iranian woman who died in Tehran on 16th September that year from injuries sustained following her arrest by the so-called ‘morality police’ for not wearing a hijab in accordance with government standards. Seven days later, Sarina was beaten by the Iranian security forces and died from her injuries, the regime claiming she killed herself. The song aims to capture Sarina’s free spirit, the promise and hope of her short life.

@JBook_37 @BCrawford247 I hear you @JBook_37 but at some point we just need to decide to make other teams fear noon.
