We need to get back to reading and critical thinking Because 2024 feels different from 2016.

Feels like I'm just posting to the void since I'm just getting started here, but why not. I write a weekly newsletter, and this week I write about how far away from reading and critical thinking we’ve come. It's lacking in our education, COVID learning loss, social media attention spans, all of it.

I’m the same. Grandad, dad, me…when my son was about 3 I asked him his favorite colour and then told him it was red…he’s been a fan ever since

Will gradually follow back regular interactors with my posts... in the meantime here's one of my favourite pics... male Mandarin. 😍😀🐦🪶 #Birds
