#TikTok may become more right-wing as #China signals approval for US sale
The US inched one step closer to taking over TikTok’s #algorithm after President Donald #Trump met with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday.
Neither leader confirmed that China has agreed to the terms of Trump’s proposed deal, which would create a US version of TikTok that licenses the Chinese-owned algorithm.

Well, one day I'd like to ask Alfred to make a little wooden bridge for my ducks to flap over. But for the moment, no ducks.
In the meantime, I'd settle for a nice cup of tea and a slices of toast, both things that taste better when someone else makes them.

A4. Something with shared peronal meaning? I do attach people's memories to objects I have from them. The items remind me of people and make me smile. A friend commissioned a needle threader out of carob tree wood, related to a common interest. Another friend arranged for a tailor to repair a keepsake jacket I had received originally as a gift of thanks for helping tidy up after a work related training. Or a cake. Someone could make me a cake. Caramelized apple upside down cake.
