Image and imagination

I asked Grok how to increase my visibility on X. After analyzing my posts, it recommended that I comment on more popular accounts with similar views. To my surprise these accounts mostly belong to right-wing men with large beards and a very simplistic sense of humor—content I wouldn't normally care to read or watch.

It reminds me of when I finished my MS at MIT my colleagues rejected me and almost did not shake hands.. Nobody would talk to me because they couldn't peg me down; they either labeled me a "commie" or a right-wing, anti-feminist male.

The moon, enough

 I continue to believe that all this moon exploration is a Hollywood fakery. Here I was myself. see the proof.

This aria brings back memories of my father more than anything else—like negotiating with my girlfriends.

Maybe the presence of the father in most oh his operas, makes feel so close to Verdi/.
