Well, it was interesting in the sense that I pressed ctrl+f and put “narciss” in the field and it says that it appears 50 times in the text, yet nowhere within it there was a definition for narcissism. Good God, how? 
It was the article equivalent of those bad pharmaceutical ads that keep listing stuff and now you are suddenly worried that you might have something that the advertised medication cures.
In 2023, she won a National Magazine Award for Columns and Essays.
If that’s the level of articles from “award winning” collumnists, I am starting to understand why people worry so much about chatGPT “stealing” their jobs … that was also on the “interesting” scale.

That’s the pitch of the book series Chung Kuo, by David Wingrove. A Chinese general conquers the world. Then he rewrites history books to pretend that the world has been under Chinese domination since the fall of the Roman empire. After a few generations and a very strong law of taboo, everyone believes the alternative history.

Even here, in the Washington DC area, the haze is significant, cutting visibility down to 1 mile. We had the first code red air alert in five years yesterday, and I chose to not do my daily walk. I will stay in today, too. Rain is predicted for tomorrow afternoon, so that should clear things out locally.

Yeah, it’s been bad here for fires. The military has been aiding civil firefighters throughout the last month and probably will for the next month or so.
The air quality is actually decent now in western Canada.
