2050
I feel utterly useless. There is no longer anything for me to do. I'm the type of person who likes working with their hands and likes feeling as though I've finished something. All those things people did that offered a sense of accomplishment are gone now. Manual work is all done by machines. People just occupy space. Sure, there is work for scientists, programmers, or inventors, but not for the average person who likes working with their hands. Humans have been made redundant. It wasn't always like this.

The Day the Toaster took Over
The year was 2050, and the world had become a place of dazzling innovation and mild absurdity. Cities shimmered with self-cleaning buildings, flying cars zipped about like caffeinated pigeons, and AI assistants managed everything from our grocery lists to our emotional wellbeing. Humanity had solved hunger, cured most diseases, and, somehow, still argued about pineapple on pizza.

HRW Accuses Israel of War

HRW based the report on interviews with displaced Gazans and satellite imagery that it says indicates evacuation orders and military actions by Israel are unjustified under international humanitarian law.

Do you still think Astrology is Sci-Fi?
Not a lot of people know this, but my very first "side gig" was as a Fortune Teller named Zoe Mav. I would read palms, tarot cards, crystals, and analyze astrology charts for those mystics who were either entertained by the idea or were true wiccans. Many faithful scientists called my interest in such "occult" practices "hogwash" and said that astrology was not as truthful as astronomy. After acing Astronomy in college, I put Zoe Mav on the shelf as I pursued a teaching career. I kept my eye on both Astrology and Astronomy, and through the years I discovered that quacks are found in both practices. I guess the new millenium isn't so much a search for truth as having to hone skills in deciphering the difference between useful journalism and/or literature as opposed to "fake news" or "misleading ad campaigns". Science has proven to be as flaky as any other once revered and upheld subject. Sorry if that disappoints you.
