Reading has become an endangered species. Which is half the problem with American political life. Maybe more than half. If you can't read, you can't think. Then you can fall for anything. The idea, for instance, that the truth is fake news.

In these modern times we bow down at the Alter of Consumption, as we are all part of the Cult of Materialism. But let’s not forget these wise words: Thought of the day from philosopher Socrates: "He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have." 🌞🌻🌞

I am generally not a fan of turning public infrastructure into advertising spaces, but I'm willing to make an exception for this ad on an Oslo bus for the world accordion championship.
Articulated buses are commonly nicknamed "accordion buses" because of the flexible, ribbed bellows connecting the two cabin sections. 

The bus in the photo features a large graphic of a Roland accordion being played by a giant pair of hands. The two halves of the accordion are on either side of the flexible section, so that it looks like the bellows of the instrument. When the vehicle turns or maneuvers, the real bellows compress and stretch, making it look like the instrument is actively playing.

Above the windows is the text "VM på trekkspill, 16.-22. oktober i Asker Kulturhus" ("World accordion championship, 16th-22nd October in Asker cultural centre")

I ran an absolutely 100% human, zero AI-involvement at any stage passage of my writing through an "AI detector," curious if it could really tell human from AI work, and it said my own writing was "84% AI written" then asked I wanted to pay to have it "humanized." So there's that to keep in mind.
