Bison

 Bison are an american icon. They are enormous in size. Also, we can add a staple of native peoples for thousands of years.

gig economy

 Pandemics are really bad for workers in a gig economy. There is a lot of work and they do not feel so secure. Making a living is not easy. Look at all the work they do and how little they can earn. Frankly, it feels like a type of semi-slavery, the modern version.

home

 Buying a home was never easy. That said, a lot of people work very hard, but do not have enough money. Many believe that our times were never worse. Yeah, we seem to finally agree. It really is a new era. Expect to see high taxes as well as low wages. People are getting even poorer. Well, with inflation it feels like we make more. Reality is that we are making less money.

horses

 Could be that most people in the future will start to use horses as a mode of transportation once more. Think of a future age. Yeah, one where all the gas is gone. Also, the power grid is no more. Citizens do not think about electric cars no more. Instead, they do focus on obtaining food and other scarce resources.

AI music

 Apple buys AI music. This is a start up company... that uses artificial intelligence to make some music. Well, we could have been able to guess that one. Chances are that we might hear like a very interesting tune soon. Let us hope that we learn to sing a new song.

video games

 There are people who live inside a video game. Actually, some scientists claim that our universe... truly is a computer simulation that is like a video game. Just what can we say? It would be quite interesting to reside in a world that is quite different than our own. OK, so that might explain the attraction of simulated world, but we are not so sure.

rose

"That which we can call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet." - Shakespeare says. However, we do wonder about names. Also, we are not talking on roses. Parents want to give their kids some unique name. That is so they stand out rather than fit in. I am not sure on... that being an awesome scenario. I still remember what I was told by a boy with pointed ears. He said - people make fun of me.

Clark Kent

It is my firm belief that Clark Kent is super man. Could be that I will win a NOBEL prize. After all, who else could image... that a reporter with mild mannerism is um science man. Oh yes, that would be super man.

pig

 I think that in every single human society, it is an insult to be called a pig. Funny, that other animals are seen as positive such as a lion with enormous courage. Also, there is the bald eagle with keen eyes. However, we do not see any one who enjoys being refereed to as a pig.

Asteroids

 Asteroids are so scary. Well, one will on January 18, 2022 pass near us. It is over one kilometer wide - wow. That would great a giant tsunami if it hit us. I do not wanna see a tidal wave. Like the destruction would be so massive.

Robots

 Robots in science fiction movies are common. However, we do not walk out on the street and see even one. Could be that in the future things will change as technology advances and they become more cost effective for businesses to use. My guess is that means... like a lot less jobs for human beings who currently depend on jobs that are low pay.

Churches

 Churches do face a colossal catastrophe as the collection plates contain a lot less money. Attendance was always a major issue. There are fewer old grannies sitting in pews. Online temples report little revenue.  OK, so church ministers now move back to return to people worshiping in  person. However, we first did face the highly transmissible delta variant and now the even faster spreading omicron version. Fellow colleagues, things do not look promising.

smell of sun cream

 There is a book called - the smell of sun cream. It is about communism. Like we do not wanna imagine a world with no freedom as in zero. All this talk about hate speech reminds me... that we are in danger of losing our freedom of speech and our freedom of the press. I believe we should allow freedom of expression. Otherwise, we are living in a police state that claims to be progressive, but is in fact very repressive.

ancient ruins

 There is something sad about ancient ruins. Perhaps it is because they do point to an exciting time with less pressing worries. Like we did not live in woe. It was a kinder and much more simple age... than now.

Parks

 Parks bring me joy. There is a lot of greenery. I like to be outside seeing nature with a lot of big trees and green grass. Concrete is not so nice. That is my own opinion. Please do tell me yours.

45 years ago

 It was a different world 45 years ago. Oh wow, miami saw snow. Maybe, it is global warming. However, I do not think that it snows in miami now. Could be that our world has truly indeed become more warm.
