Happy Beltane (Bealtaine) 🔥
On quite a special day, the 1st since 1988, the ancient Celtic fire festival that celebrates the begining of the light half of the year, a day when magical energy pours from Ireland's fairy mounds, collides with the glowing energy of the full moon 🌕
Today's Flower Moon, represents the fertility of the land and the explosion of blooming flowers It is also a "micromoon" appearing slightly smaller and dimmer as it sits at the farthest point from Earth in its orbit 🌍

If you're thinking about using gen-AI to "write" books, this 🧵 is for you.
I’m a highly experienced editor who’s been in the biz a long time. Recently I’ve had manuscripts come to me where the author has used gen-AI – not for writing, I’ve been assured, but for

“I’m completely library-educated ... When I graduated from high school in 1938, I began going to the library three nights a week. I did this every week for almost ten years ... I graduated from the library when I was twenty-seven. I discovered that the library is the real school.” Ray Bradbury

Giannis is a REAL ONE 💯
The Lakers wanted the game ball for Adou Thiero, who scored his first NBA points, but the refs were not allowing it.
Giannis stepped in and secured it for the young fella ❤️

Randall Park says Hollywood keeps “taking the wrong lessons” from successful movies.
“For example, ‘BARBIE’ is this massive blockbuster, and the idea is: Make more movies about toys! No. Make more movies by and about women!”

Today, I’m remembering the courage of John McCain when he voted to protect the ACA and keep millions of Americans from losing insurance.
Protecting and strengthening healthcare for the American people should be something both parties can agree on, and I won’t stop fighting for it.

Thank you @SenatorSlotkin
PLEASE make a call to these three Senators and tell them NOT to vote YES on this ridiculous scam where after 40 days NOTHING is gained. NOTHING!

Tonight, I am voting no on a procedural vote on an appropriations deal that would re-open the government. Since July, I have been clear: to earn my vote, Republicans would have to do something to bring down the cost of health care for working and middle-class Michiganders. The promise of a vote in over a month does not meet that threshold.
For me, this was never about politics or Beltway gamesmanship. President Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ has plunged America into a health care crisis. That emergency has real life victims, and in Michigan, the average price of health care is increasing across the board, with some expected to see their premiums more than double.
What’s clear is that the old way of doing business continues to fail America. Leadership is about changing and adapting when there is real need, and unless we hear that, we will fail to meet the moment.
