"I just felt a calm and a peace that had to be come from the woman above (his mom). I felt like a kid. It was just fun out here. It felt like I was a kid getting ready to go play my Saturday AAU games and Sunday AAU games. In a way I felt like I was seeing her in the stands"
this is incredibly accurate because I remember being at a family party and my cousins and I were all discussing kanye west and someone’s white friend told us that we actually should be listening to das racist. it got so quiet.
Just want to add: the people whose books I’m encountering online are either from friends or an algorithm built by my own interests/tastes. Usually the books I haven’t read are ones I haven’t made time for yet but want to, and the “everything” of course was hyperbole.
whenever someone posts their bookshelf or book pile, I go through each book because the rule is… I have to had read at least one thing in the picture. And if I haven’t read anything, then this person whose books I’m inspecting has “won” and that’s why I need to read everything
@aery_faery so I haven’t read anything on this bookshelf and never will because none of these books pique my interest I still use my own taste-based discernment :)
@norabird It’s just a little curiosity and the desire to be a well-rounded reader. I mean I have standards as to what/who I read that has already been primed by own taste, and at worst it’s placing some pressure on myself to read more, but I think… that’s also just fine
BREAKING: We now know the municipal/provincial and federal lobbyists behind the Billy Bishop airport expansion in Toronto is Nieuport Aviation, an asset among many, controlled by the IIG which was founded by JP Morgan. Yes, an AMERICAN bank is trying to destroy our waterfront.
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
