Back in the day on Saturday mornings in the late seventies there were various kinds of programs from the normal cartoon to live action programs. There was a cartoon that I remember entitled 'Valley of the Dinosaurs' a cartoon about the Butler family and their trip of exploration into the prehistoric past. The cartoon was well-detailed in depicting the Butler family and the cave family they encountered and their surroundings from the flora to the fauna (dinosaurs). There were lessons to learn about cooperation and accepting others for who they are.

Adult Coloring Books
I really appreciate all the reads and comments I have received on my Color art pictures that I have done in a few adult coloring books that I have shared. Along with some of my original art drawings. I mainly wanted to share that I have published several adult coloring books on the site known as 'artwanted.com'. I have print and PDF versions of my books there. If you happened to be interested, go to the site and click 'BROWSE' and type my name. They are all pencil sketches in the coloring books. I also have a gallery of my artwork posted there as well. You can even buy them if you would like to. They are drawn using markers, crayons and stylus computer icons. Please comment.

Who Is Clavicular? The Looksmaxxing Streamer Who Ran Over A Stalker In His Cybertruck
What is so damaging to this current culture is the ant-intellectualism which pervades nearly every element of it. Clavicular, real name, Braden Peters equivocates physical form with getting women, making money, and overall being a strong “man.”

Angry People Click More: The Economics of Manufactured Dissent
(Ideas from the book The Economic Policy of Online Media: Manufacture of Dissent, Routledge, 2024) Abstract This article examines the formula ‘angry people click more’ as a core logic of contemporary online media and as a structural transformation of propaganda in the digital age. It argues that the defining feature of the current attention economy is not only the circulation of misinformation, but the systematic deployment of openly implausible claims designed to provoke moral outrage and sustain profitable engagement cycles. The analysis links Oxford’s 2025 Word of the Year ‘rage bait’ to earlier lexical markers of epistemic crisis such as ‘truthiness’ and ‘post-truth’, and situates this trajectory against the older ‘manufacture of consent’ model of Herman and Chomsky. While classical propaganda in totalitarian and mass-media systems sought ideological unity through censorship and the Big Lie, the emerging Propaganda 2.0 model, articulated by Peter Ayolov, monetises anger by manufacturing dissent and deliberately populating the public sphere with absurd, polarising narratives. The article interprets this dynamic through the allegories of ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’ and Václav Havel’s greengrocer, showing how the move from fearful silence to permanent online rage changes both the psychology and political economy of propaganda. Drawing on Evgeny Morozov’s critique of fake-news moral panics, Frances Haugen’s disclosures about Facebook, and the documentary The Social Dilemma, it concludes that anger has become a tradable asset and that blatant lying has shifted from an authoritarian instrument of control to a market mechanism in a global ‘free trade in slogans’.
