L’uso dei #Social è dannoso per i più piccoli.
Uno studio svedese ha dimostrato che i bambini che trascorrono molto tempo sui #SocialMedia tendono a sperimentare un graduale declino della loro capacità di concentrazione.
Una ricerca che ha coinvolto oltre 100.000 giovani tra i 18 e i 24 anni ha rilevato che chi ha ricevuto il primo smartphone prima dei 13 anni riporta tassi più alti di pensieri suicidi, aggressività, ansia, bassa autostima e disturbi dell’umore.

Immediately after the 2024 US election there was a naive knee jerk reaction where pundits would claim the country as a whole had shifted right, and that to win vulnerable groups like trans people need to be thrown under the bus.
A new analysis challenges that view, suggesting that what really happened was fewer left-leaning voters came to the polls in 2024.
They note one of the largest problems was lack of a strong economic message from Democrats.

At the American Military Hospital No. 1 at Neuilly, supported by the ARC it was found neccesary to put up tents on the roofs of the two wings, to accommodate the overflow of wounded. A slight fire was started in the roof of one of these tents. The picture shows patients and members of the personnel watching it being put out. The damage was not serious

Embellish.
Since mankind first began using tools, there has been an artistic imperative to embellish everyday items.
From pots to weapons to steam engines to handkerchiefs.
From plain sight to hidden detail.
From the mundane to the numinous.
From the simple to the sublime.
Embellish: etymology from around the mid 14th century…. “to render beautiful,” from Old French embelliss-, stem of embellir “make beautiful, ornament,”1
Embellishing brings attention to the mundane, collapsing the ordinary to reveal something deeper than the sum of the parts.
I have two questions.
- does the natural world embellish its objects?
- how do you embellish your life?

He's restored gun rights to felons, dismantled the WH Office of Gun Violence Prevention, and cut mental-health & community anti-gun violence grants.
