Today's the day. A day to write, every fortnight. I've gifted myself a regular writing day for my 60th year on the planet.

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.
