We need Community organizing - Folks sharing common problems with a group that acts to solve their shared self-interest.

Supporters of Democracy have found themselves in a difficult situation. Until they can distinguish between what’s true and what’s false, then the marketplace of truths won’t work and our democracy may perish.

Bibi is out and a new Israeli government has a confidence vote. Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's longest-serving prime minister.

His record run in office officially ended with parliament approving a new administration led by Naftali Bennett. This means there is a new prime minister for the first time since 2009 after a power-sharing government survived a confidence vote on Sunday. Bennett was then sworn in as prime minister.

Do you remember when the former guy used The White House bully pulpit to say the virus would magically disappear and there was no reason to fear? The same buffoon's incompetence led to 600K American deaths from #COVID, claims that windmills kill everything.

Over half a million #Americans have died in #USA. Many are workers, nurses, doctors because they have put themselves in a position to save other people’s lives and protect the rest of society. Not all these lives had to perish and we know who is at fault.

On this, Sunday that's set aside to celebrate Latino pride and The Puerto Rican Parade, it is fitting to profile a famous Borinqueño

I met Anthony and his mom in Brooklyn recently. This young man and this wonderful animated, joyous, life-affirming major motion picture character are some of the best reasons for not only Latinos but for everyone to return to theaters, which were closed all over the place due to #COVID and the public health crisis around the world.

Sandra Luz Gallegos Devine, Los Angeles, CA, June 12, 2021.-Today I had breakfast with a friend and journalist here in Los Angeles.

Sotheby's had an auction of NFT Art. One guy got 11.8 million for the ownership of a digital file.

The file is actually publicly available before and after the sale of its ownership. Other artists got 17 million at the auction.

The original Demo Version of a Song could be something similar.

The quality and production might not mean as much as the actual Song, Lyrics, Hook

Collectors are buying the ownership of these kinds of original things.

Inspiration Aspiration Motivation

These important words, inspiration and aspiration, and motivation are different and distinct. They are often used interchangeably, but should never be.

The reason why I bring it up at this time is that as schools are wrapping up one of the most difficult academic years ever, it is time to reflect and learn the difference between them.

It is important to draw a clearer distinction. Inspiration is the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something.

Why do I consider myself to be the proudest grandpa on earth? My baby girl Sabrina Soto's baby Olivia is a preschool graduate.

This is not just a fancy-schmancy diploma, this is is my baby girl's baby girl graduating from PK aka pre-school, and moving on to the big times, maybe even a Ph.D.

I'm going to continue celebrating with family and friends throughout the weekend and may even shed a few tears of joy.
