ARTS & LIFE
Perhaps I should not have wished this change in weather upon us, but at least it’s cooler. If the weather feels too dreary, here are some fun indoor events to fill the next few days.
Climate change is real, but perfection isn’t the answer. Every small action matters, recycle right, save energy, do what you can. Together, our imperfect choices can build a better planet.
AI political posts on social media are only helping further the divide between political parties. To help the country heal, social media platforms should take steps to ban AI-generated content.
AI has made the world we live in more confusing by the day. As it progresses in its capabilities, the line between fact and fiction will become an abyss. Legislation is needed to limit AI before it is too late.
We’re at college to learn. Learning requires struggle and it requires taking the time beyond what’s needed for studying for a test to actually understand how information sits with your current worldviews and be willing to listen to people who disagree with you.
American politics feels less like a democracy and more like a never-ending custody battle. Voters get stuck in the middle while two massive parties argue over who gets to “own” them. The Republican and Democratic parties were originally created to help organize elections and mobilize people. Today, they mostly organize outrage, and they’ve gotten extremely good at it.
We’re told to abandon childish beliefs as we grow up. But letting go of Santa might mean letting go of something else, too: the whimsy that makes the holidays feel magical.
