Is Bridgerton Trashy and Stereotypical or Progressive and Innovative?
Where to begin… I have yet to see ‘Wuthering Heights’, but it seems similar in style. It is not in keeping with the time it depicts and weaves in the modern era. I love this about Bridgerton, although I was unsure at first. I have watched every season, and it’s always thought-provoking.

The Voucher Program
Tennessee's Education Savings Account program was introduced to the legislature in 2023 with a specific image attached to it. A poor child in a failing school whose parents finally have the power to do something about it. That image did most of the political work. The bill passed. The program launched.

Roots and Fruit
Roots and Fruit Photo by Lukáš Kulla on Unsplash Most people evaluate life by what shows. Results, behavior, success, failure, growth, collapse. Fruit is easier to measure than roots, so it becomes the focus almost by default. When something goes wrong, attention rushes to what is visible and immediate. When something goes right, credit is assigned to the most recent action. But this way of seeing consistently misreads causality. Fruit is never the beginning of the story. It is the result of something that has been growing quietly, often unnoticed, for a long time.
