I Had a peaceful and restful holiday season. Spent a lot of time off the screen. It was very refreshing. Will be spending less time on screen going forward. Hope you guys are ready for a year of change and fluidity.
This will be brief and to the point. With this digital/A.I levithan now stifling society into a increasing delusional state of being, I am stating that analogue rules of engagement are even more important. They must not be totally lost. The analogue feature of the gatekeeper was purposeful because it helped stop what I am labeling of D.C.P aka ‘digital content pollution’. We are all guilty of it now.
If someone decided to invest in you in the past, that was the ultimate truth and validation for your movement/development or project. They put their money where their mouth is….Which for me is the ultimate endorsement for me. This digital/A.I leviathan is full of empty endorsement that has very little risk.
In what I am labeling D.N aka ‘Digital Narcissism’ you are the one that has to push you along. However, anybody knows…. You, yourself and I can’t put you over the top! It takes a village to raise a child as the old saying goes! Yet in this time of society (Digerati fueling) this is now the opposite. However, the average person doesn’t see what is being said here. Yourself is not enough for success you need that village.
This is why digital content pollution will be detrimentally expanding in our global village. With no gatekeeper your time will be eaten up by this digital content pollution under the guise of discovery. Please remember you only have the 24 hours given to us! What you do with it is crucial to what happens in your life’s trajectory. When you go online you are essentially Columbus, Magellan, and or Cortez. We are spending our time searching for something worthwhile to consume. All of this ‘Digital Narcissism’, which now I am a part of due to the clever shift in how the economy functions will be telling as time goes ahead.
All of this mental health rhetoric is a symptom of the greater problems. Children being depressed/repressed/oppressed based on strangers comments is a crucial factor of this mental health paradigm. Children now are raised without what is called ‘thick skin’. Now we are all ‘transparent’! Transparent definition: 1) allowing light to pass through so that the objects behind can be distinctly seen. 2) easy to perceive or detect. Now lets go to thick skin: 1) A lack of sensitivity to criticism or insults. 2) An ability to keep from getting upset or offended by the things other people say and do.
In closing, the human is a frail creature we now have crafted. Unless the human is tested they become frail or weakened. Part of childhood when I came up was to test you. Now ‘thickskinism’ has traveled to bullyism. However, the increase in mental issues has taken place over the last 40 years! It is the dark side of this thing called transparency. This digital content pollution and ‘meism’ needs further discussion. There are obvious issues all through society that need to be confronted in this ever growing mentally frail society.

Now what will your mind allow to do?
Agree with where words. But as a comfortable old pensioner living simply I look in on my grandchildren lifestyle and just think the life challenges are all theres.
Those of us who can understand and translate analog to digital have a responsibility to the younger. Our value will increase in time.
