@RachelBitecofer@Chappyx06 Iβve had mail take longer than a week to get to the East Bay from San Francisco. Should we count all ballots or should we let the USPS decide how many get counted?
@Sensie1976@DDrolapas I live in SF, know my neighbors
& have their numbers in my phone. We have backyard bbqs, receive deliveries for each other. Thereβs an annual block party with an email list for volunteers, and everyone supports a fundraising event for the local elementary school π€
Connecting young people to digital networks serves no purpose if they remain disconnected from themselves, others, and their own interiority. We must help young people rediscover silence, reflection, the ability to ask questions, the depth of relationships, and openness to transcendence. To listen to the soul, we must lend an ear, because the soul's voice is not a shout, but a whisper.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
