Millennials are the elite generation because they cranked out 12-page essays the night before they were due. No ChatGPT. No Claude. Just lo-fi beats playing in the background, Black coffee at midnight, footnotes that were somehow correct, and pure delusion. Grade was an A minus. Period.

The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe

@CFigueres In ancient times, pilgrims walking El Camino greeted each other in Latin with this salutation: Ulteria, meaning, ‘keep going, more the beyond.’ The reply in Latin was Et Suseia, meaning, go higher…. This is our path forward... Ulteria, Et Suseia...

imagine you wake up every day in room-sized bed. you are gently lifted from the covers and dressed in warmest sweaters each morning. your favourite foods are brought to you. you have no bills, no job, no responsibilities. but you are a chihuahua, so you are blind with rage.

JURASSIC PARK was released 31 years ago today. One of the most successful blockbusters ever made and a landmark in digital effects, the production of the film was as huge and spectacular as the T. Rex…

A machine called ECMO can perform the work of the heart and lungs entirely outside the body. “ECMO is transforming medical care,” Clayton Dalton writes. “But it also complicates care when life inevitably begins to end.” https://t.co/wjZUo1fVH2
