In a recent Op-Ed in The NY Times, James Carville railed on about how Kamala Harris supposedly lost the 2024 election due to “the economy”.

I love advent calendars as they get us ready for Christmas. Here are my favorite…
Dozens of studies show that a vegan diet is better for your health. While I still eat fish occasionally, I am vegan 98% of the time.

Here are my faves for Fall 2024!
According to a 2024 study commissioned by the American Psychological Association, nearly 50% of American adults report feeling more stressed out than ever, and the numbers are soaring. Enter Meditate America, which is a worldwide movement from The David Lynch Foundation’s Institute for Mental Health and Resilience. Join TGATP online at this year’s event today at Lincoln Center with Hugh Jackson. HUGH JACKMAN, y’all!
Been very disappointed this month with movies I thought I was going to love and really looked forward to. First, “Blink Twice”, now “The Front Room”, which was a waste of a lot of great talent on both the directing and acting sides.
