I used to see a lot when I was a child and even though I’m in the garden a lot, they are not.

I can’t understand why there is so little interest in the republican debate. Is it because it doesn’t matter? We should all have a keen interest because it is at the heart of us being an independent country.

I have used marijuana for over 45 years. I use it responsibly and I have never had a bad experience with it. Why should I have to break the Law to have a quiet smoke in my own home on my own land? Why as a responsible adult can I not choose what is best for my life?

Should we be eating them?

This is the current internal debate I am struggling with as a student about to graduate and go out into the competitive and soul-crushing work force world. There is often this moral vs. wealth and success debate when thinking about the person I want to be and whether I can truly make an impact in this world. How can we break free from the ideals in place by our society and comfortably be ourselves without giving up certain parts of who we are and how we think?

There’s some spooky looking fish down there, and yet we seem to waste time looking out into the big black sky (moot point if NASA announces aliens later today…)

Like many others, my husband and I are increasingly convinced that living like this is the best thing we can do for the planet. However, I recently read an article that spoke of the many who believe the opposite. They argue that developing increasingly sophisticated technologies, such as higher levels of artificial intelligence, is the best solution to most, if not all, of our problems – and they have the money and power to make these technologies reality. The article also posited the question, ‘Would I want a future foisted upon me by [Silicon Valley venture capitalist Marc] Andreessen and his fellow founders?’ This prospect frightens me – as it would many others. Can we resist this vision of the future?

I guess I find it a fascinating question because, if the answer is ‘yes’ (and I think it probably is), that runs quite contrary to the current obsession with science and truth and makes story-telling and art-play far more important.

The P versus NP problem is a major unsolved problem in computer science. Informally, it asks whether every problem whose solution can be quickly verified by a computer can also be quickly solved by a computer. For a correct solution of the “P versus NP” question, the Clay Mathematics Institute (CMI) will award a prize of $1.000.000.

Do we do it to make ourselves feel better or to make ourselves feel worse? Either way, PLEASE MAKE ME STOP LOOKING AT THE INSTAGRAM.
