Biggest book recommendation this month is Sharyl Attkisson's book "Slanted". I can't recommend it enough. It breaks down in non-partisan manner how bad news media slant has become, with stories & commentary from a variety of those who worked in big corporate news outlets.
Every person needs to read it to really understand what has currently been happening in our country: https://amzn.to/3o7Z6kx
Kmele on Bill Maher talking about "equity" programs in Covid distribution and the "ridiculous proposition" that we hear from governors and the NYT.
What he's referring to is what you would call correlation fallacy, confusing correlating factors as cause & effect. This fallacy problem is destroying the ability to actually find REAL solutions. We can't fix a problem unless we understand what is actually causing the problem.
Is it Possible for Everyone to Get Along? The answer to that lies in another big question.
That question is part of the foundation of this community and everything I'll be sharing on here.

Got my blog up where I'll be posting about social psychology & current events. The first article asks important questions regarding mindsets & how they relate to events of world history.
This is important relative to most of what I'll be talking about, so make sure to read it. Luckily, it's short: https://thewalkingconundrum.blogspot.com/2020/10/can-you-be-wrong.html
One of the best videos on this topic lol
One study finds a third of adults have fallen out with someone after misreading a text.
"‘In person communication enables us to understand tone, pay attention to body language, and feel better connected, reducing feelings of frustration, depression and anxiety, shown to be the most common feelings from miscommunication.’"
Has this ever happen to you?
When I help or teach anyone something, I am very adamant on doing it in the "teach a man to fish" rather than "give a man a fish" kind of way.
To ever set things up in way where they need you is unsustainable & cruel. Because if there's ever a situation where you're not able to be around, it sets them up to fail.
If you truly care about that person succeeding, you will do it in way where that is possible with or without you.
