As evidenced by the unbridled promotion and implementation of technology at the expense of human dignity, we are truly experiencing an eclipse of the sense of what it means to be human. It is imperative to recover an understanding of the true meaning and grandeur of humanity as intended by God. It is in this sense that the challenge we currently face is not technological, but anthropological, and it is my hope that the Encyclical Letter to be published within a few days will contribute to answering this challenge.

@Srirachachau he could 100% pull off the same fit as well.

@LeahLibresco Tiny Tim is NOT dead - per both Dickens and Gonzo as Dickens

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.

@librarythingtim It completely blew my mind what our library pays yearly for Hoopla/Libby access at a board meeting years ago. One board member asked if "anyone really uses that hoola hoop thing" and our director assured him that the service is very, very popular.

@DrewFrogger I don't see how LBL continues to exist in any form after all of this. They've been trying to privatize it since Reagan.

@SketchesbyBoze How old were you when you read it the first time? I think it was third grade for me, and then LOTR in middle school.

@sepinwall I've loved reading you on Terriers for years! You're exactly why I discovered it in the first place.

@LeahLibresco We have one (and a changing table) in the ADA-accessible bathroom at our bookstore! One of our favorite reviews to get is that we're the most family friendly rest room in town.

@mnolangray Of course! L:ove your work - I'm deeply interested in zoning in my role on City Council and I love reading fellow Kentuckians!

@oliviakrauth How long does it usually take for bills to be posted at the start of the session? Curious about this one too.
