I apologize I couldn't be one of the paying followers. Still, I'd like to say I really think the world of your work! Living in France, I'm grateful to be bilingual. Most people here don't have a clue about what's about to hit them in the face! Looks like the digital euro is right around the corner

Anyway... Merry Christmas! All the more reason to enjoy today!

Merry Christmas, Lena. Excellent video below about “The Future of Loneliness.” I’ve seen videos of these of these humanoid robots in real life at AI exhibitions and the real robots are not far behind these AI generated robots in the video plus AI is advancing exponentially both here and in China so we really could see robots as advanced as these in a couple of years. “Ex Machina” is a sci fi movie from 2015 that’s now free on YouTube about a young man who hoped to make a robot, “Ava” his girlfriend but it did not go well for him. Reminds me of that saying “Be careful what you wish for.” Great movie though. One of my favorite sci fi movies. A real classic. The best of times. The worst of times.

A Very Merry Christmas to you, Lena. Take a well-deserved break!

Of the four individuals I have supported, you are the only one I have no complaint about. One looked a bit independent but then he started touting the Trump line, even when it made no sense to do so. Another posted something about every 6 weeks or so and much of that is redundant.

I would suggest to build support, let part of a story be seen by the public, but the rest hidden to only paid subscribers. It's a way to bring more in. I would think Substack would allow this process, but not sure. I have heard of this being used by others.

PS: Enjoy your time off and don't feel obligated to post anything. :-)

Here’s to falling back into Concordance with our true human nature.

"The human Rights of Women are among those uncountable and naturally unalienable Rights of the Formation Document of this shared American Republic & Declaratory Charter of Our Natural Rights, which guarantees forever the Equal Station it entitles both Women and Men to."
