new selfie, entrepreneurial capitalism, russell vought, new i-phone feature
a nice selfie…
yesterday i was grateful for the full moon and a quiet afternoon of reading...
today i am looking forward to more moon and more reading...
finished breakfast at odd fellows... sitting in front of library, writing this, posting to my blog... i have decided to publish what is created on one day the following day... this allows me to add to a post all day long and gives a fuller accounting of the day...
wrote a greeting card note to G... i am doing more and more in analog fashion... sometimes switching what is digital to analog (journaling), sometimes creating new analog practices (writing greeting cards)...
it seems to have rained last night... wetness on the ground... no memory of it happening... while we were sleeping?...
some photos…
russel vought... what makes some people feel entitled to force their will on the rest of us?...
In 2022, Vought argued that the United States is in a “post constitutional moment” that “pays only lip service to the old Constitution.” He attributes that crisis to “the Left,” which he says “quietly adopted a strategy of institutional change,” by which he appears to mean the growth of the federal government to protect the rights of all Americans. He attributes that change to the presidency of President Woodrow Wilson beginning in 1913. Vought advocates what he calls “radical constitutionalism” to destroy the power of the modern administrative state and instead elevate the president to supreme authority.
doing a little research into capitalism... i had read that entrepreneurial capitalism was a small c capitalism... that is, most entrepreneurs start small businesses... i had thought this might make capitalism acceptable, but i am not so sure after reading about max webber...
this seems useful...
Your iPhone Can Ask Why Someone's Calling Before You Pick Up - MacRumors
The new "Ask Reason for Calling" feature is kind of like having your own receptionist. When someone who isn't in your Contacts calls, your iPhone automatically answers the call with a polite automated message asking for their name and reason for calling. The caller is placed on hold while their response is transcribed to text and displayed on your screen, letting you decide whether to accept, decline, or ask for more information.
