Well done, Gen Z. Well done, indeed.
Valentine’s Day has officially been rebranded according to OpenTable.

57% of Americans believe Valentine’s Day is now about celebrating all relationships, not just romance.

70% of Gen Z agrees.

Galentine’s Day dining up 34%.

Solo dining up 35%.

Gen Z changed the holiday.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps:

- It’s ‘voilà,’ not ‘wallah!’
- It’s ‘a lot,’ not ‘alot.’
- It’s ‘further ado,’ not ‘farther adieu.’
- It’s ‘flesh out,’ not ‘flush out.’
- It’s ‘sneak peek,’ not ‘sneak peak.’

No worries if not!!!

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

Misinformation - the accidental spread of false information without intent to harm

Disinformation - false information designed to mislead others and used with the intent to confuse fact and fiction

This is neither.
