Happy Sunday!
“I pray a simple prayer every morning. It’s an ecumenical prayer. Whether you’re Catholic or Jewish or Muslim or Hindu, I think it speaks to the heart of every faith. It goes 'Lord please break the laws of the universe for my convenience. Amen.'”
— Emo Philips

@LiberalLibrarian Securing a future more like the one depicted in Star Trek, where humanity has advanced technologically, socially, and morally to create a utopian society, is a lofty goal but not impossible. Here are some key principles and actions that could help move towards a future resembling the one in Star Trek: 1. Embrace Diversity and Inclusion: In Star Trek, humanity has moved beyond discrimination and prejudice, embracing diversity in all its forms. Promoting equality, respect, and inclusion for all individuals regardless of their background is essential for building a more harmonious future. 2. Pursue Scientific Advancements: Invest in research and development across various fields, including clean energy, healthcare, space exploration, and artificial intelligence. Scientific advancements can help address global challenges, improve quality of life, and expand human knowledge. 3. Focus on Sustainability: Adopt sustainable practices to protect the environment and ensure the well-being of future generations. Transitioning to renewable energy sources, reducing waste, and promoting conservation efforts are critical steps towards a more sustainable future. 4. Collaborate Globally: Foster international cooperation and diplomacy to address global issues such as climate change, poverty, and conflict. Working together across borders and ideologies is crucial for achieving long-lasting peace and prosperity. 5. Promote Education and Lifelong Learning: Invest in education systems that encourage critical thinking, creativity, and lifelong learning. Providing access to quality education for all individuals can empower people to reach their full potential and contribute positively to society. 6. Uphold Ethical Values: Strive to uphold ethical principles such as compassion, justice, and integrity in all aspects of life. Encouraging ethical behavior and holding individuals and institutions accountable for their actions can help build a more just and compassionate society. While achieving a future like the one in Star Trek may seem like a distant dream, taking small steps towards these ideals in our everyday lives can contribute to creating a more inclusive, sustainable, and technologically advanced world for future generations.

Day 3
The challenge is to choose 20 albums that greatly influenced your taste in music. One album per day, for 20 consecutive days. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. (Unless you ask...)
That moment when you're driving home from work,
and you're thinking about something that makes you feel good,
and you're daydreaming these happy thoughts so deeply,
that you don't notice you passed your exit several miles back.
...sigh.
