 It is not the most intellectual of the species that survives; it is not the strongest that survives; but the species that survives is the one that is able best to adapt and adjust to the changing environment in which it finds itself.
@georgetakei But, but… he absolutely crushed it at Four Seasons Lawn & Garden?!

Exciting news, friends! I recently had a thought-provoking conversation with the brilliant Robert Reich, where we delved into the intricate web of late-stage capitalism, wealth inequality, and the imperative for change. We explored the myths surrounding billionaires and the real factors contributing to the wealth gap.

Join us in this enlightening discussion by reading the full interview on my Substack, #TheBigPicture. Let's work together to create a better future for all. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/big-questions-answers-robert-reich

Professor, author, lawyer, political commentator and staffer for four Presidents, Robert Reich answers questions from George Takei.

The Big Picture

Via Victor Shi:

Oh wow. Jake Tapper just directed CNN control room to get rid of #Trump's visit to cafe after arraignment: "I don't need to see any more of that. He's trying to turn it into a spectacle..Enough of that. We've seen it already." This is good. More plz.

AND Nicolle Wallace also did same on MSNBC. This is good & media should do this from now on. Don't give Trump attention he desperately craves & wants. There are much better things to show than Trump trying to celebrate this moment

Everyone seems to agree with Marcus and no one has liked his post. Well, I'll be the first. Thanks Marcus.
Give a man a fish, and Republicans immediately blame you for inflation. Teach a man to fish, and they call you a woke Marxist and pass a law banning Fishing Studies.
#Coronation
Is it just me? Or is there, like, 10 times more US TV coverage of this coronation than there ever is of a US presidential inauguration?
Just gonna be honest here: To hell with bluesky; I’m at my social media limit. If Mastodon tanks, I’m going back to writing my jokes in bus station toilet stalls.
@rbreich
Do I have it right? The Fed has a simple (well simply stated) mission. Keep both inflation and unemployment low. And they really only have one lever to control both. Interest rates. Is that accurate?
