Seems like we are now living in the world of "1984" because people were convinced to vote for the world of "1984" out of fear we were becoming the world of "1984" by people who had never read "1984". How Orwellian (That's the guy who wrote "1984").

Anyone else notice how the ads selling "responsible gambling" that run every commercial break during the hockey playoffs are also selling gambling?
Reminds me of when the tobacco companies were allowed to create the anti-tobacco campaigns.
The article goes on to blame this loss on ChatGPT, etc.. Although I'm a little concerned about A.I. and its effects, this piece now has me worried that A.I. will become a scapegoat for poor leadership and poor teaching among other things.

A friend sent me this opinion piece yesterday morning and I almost spit my coffee out when I read it. "Almost Overnight"? What a joke! Feels especially insulting after spending much of the last 30 years trying to tell people this was happening and how we can reverse it.

I love that so many are now woke to the value of buying Canadian. But don’t let them make you believe the only power you have is your purchasing power. It’s a trap!

Which, when you think about it, is a good meta-phor:) for our capitalist system - turning loving kindness into another opportunity to make money.
I'd take more loving kindness over more money any day.
#metta
Interesting that one book about 2 dads available in a school library brings accusations of #grooming.
But a trillion dollar system designed to turn children into mindless consumers, using sexual imagery to do so, is natural.
With this in mind, shouldn’t the former be considered ungrooming?
I Love Canada!
I had to say it as I'm feeling a little heartbroken by those who continue to degrade it. And furious at those who would sell us out in a heartbeat if it meant more coin in their pocket.
Spotted in Krabi, Thailand.

When did how well you "roasted" somebody become a sign of good leadership? Jesus!

May you be at peace.
