Sorry. - following already, but glad to comment.
I have no real concern about “fake.” I think it was the writer Ursula Le Guin who said that fiction can be more powerful than reality in telling “the Truth.” And people will pay lot for powerful emotions.
GN to a world in dire need of fewer tyrants and fewer sentient parasites. Love and strength to everyone else.
GEA (for times when it’s too late to say GM and too early to say GN - good early afternoon!)
This is a thought provoking analysis, and the response and further thoughts you posted from Thomas Wolf may be even more important. Thanks for sharing both!

Well, you know what they say. Study hard and you get a BS ( also known as bullshit ). Then comes more shit (MS) before it’s piled higher and deeper (PhD).
Talk about a fiat attitude. Whoever is teaching this class is a moron and probably a mediocre writer.

Of course. The Fed seems to be getting back to its original mandate to serve its masters and never let inflation get too low to disrupt the oligarch gravy train.
When your new ideas keep you awake at night or distract you from your pain or anger, let them loose to blow in the wind and bloom beautifully in unpredictable places.
GM (kinda late) with good wishes for satisfying new memories when it comes time to say, “GN.”
Nice thought and advice for many purposes and situations, but sometimes a full magazine, reliable sights, and a steady hand are necessary for love and peace to thrive.
This guy RK Jr. is a moron.
I don’t spend much time looking at photos or videos of people irrespective of age or gender. I’m more more interested in what they have to say or what they have done or plan to do. That aside, the photos you’ve posted of yourself (as they say - or used to say) are quite easy on the eyes! 🙂
This is worth checking out - regarding toxicities and a natural alternative:
Very very well said. I fully agree - and wish you the continuing blessings of all the wonders of love.

This is beautiful and true - but I wonder if it is the whole truth. Or is love more complex and limitless when it is true love.
Is the love for a child by a parent, a love deeper than desire for life itself, diminished or diluted by the arrival of a second child who is also loved more fully than life itself?
If tragedy (or evil) cuts short the physical timespan of profound love, is not Love itself capable of expanding to encompass a second profound love between two souls who share a physically new, but perhaps spiritually infinite love? Perhaps the new love itself does not diminish the first profound love that was tragically cut short prematurely against the wills of the lovers?
Your piece is a clear and informative description of a complex, multifaceted problem - a very serious problem that will get worse without the concerted effort of good people like you. I really like your course outline! I also respect and admire your dedication and effectiveness.
