Humanity only survives if it matches every advancement in technology with a deepening of the soul. Without clarity about ethics, without sensitivity to truth and beauty, we will quickly lose ourselves in a heartless hellscape of digital minds.

Shut down the youth clubs.
Sell off the playing fields.
Put up "no ball games" signs.
Make public places hostile to teenagers.
Then:
"Young people, eh? Always indoors looking at their phones."

Hello Sunday ☀️
My friend Henry (who was also my student) & I decided to create some joy in –20°C weather in the Yukon and share it with you all. He is in grade 5 now. We are sending joy, hope, and positivity.

Inspired by a recent viral post, a team of doctors developed a program called "Dementia's Search for Expression with Poetry." They used my poetry prompts to "give people with dementia a voice again."

Here are some lines by patients. I'm going to need a minute.

Rachel Reeves copied and pasted this from a Tory paper on deregulation from 2005.
Tthe impact of red tape costs could be 3 -4% of GDP, around £70 billion'.
Labour and Tories are neoliberals through and through.
