I went from a chatbot, to a broken link, to a phone call with AI, to a conversation with an actual human being this morning, and that human being fixed my problem within 15 seconds. It took me 40 minutes to get to that 15 seconds. Don’t call this “customer-centric”. Just don’t.

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

In memory of Marie Colvin. She was killed on this day, Feb 22, 2012, in Homs, Syria. I wish she could report today on the liberation of Syria from Bashar al-Assad. We support her legacy at mariecolvincenter.org. We miss you Marie

Dominique Persoone finds Nocciolata tastes better than Nutella and I’ve only been saying this for years. Did I mention that it doesn’t contain palm oil and is organic too?
