Culture IS malleable. Invest in Nuclear. Mixed message award. by (me!) sandra mickanen, topps, writeousmom
i would like to give 2 examples of what i mean by culture IS malleable:
1. my remarkable (sexy) husband:
when he initially graduated from the police academy; and during his first couple decades as a deputy for santa clara county
the culture was such that, a) his children were proud to share with others that he was a cop b) he wore his uniform proudly
i can attest that he was consistently a good cop.. a noble, righteous law enforcement officer -this can be easily co-signed and validated by people he worked under, worked with, the students who had him as a training officer, and includes inmates who respected him, along with his best friend Pete.
we can, that is, I can, from my own life experience, validate that the culture changed dramatically, during the Obama administration [during.. not to be confused with because of.. which is a different topic]:
my husband did not change; he remained a noble, caring, conscientious, highly respected law enforcement, training officer and deputy
the culture around him changed, such that, suddenly, a) his children were afraid to share with anyone that their dad was a cop, and b) he did not wear his uniform to and from work, only wore his uniform while working.
culture changes around good people... while good people remain good...

2. havent we all witnessed this truth so recently with tesla owners.
we have a number of good friends, good family, good neighbors who own teslas. when they initially purchased their teslas the culture was such that; they drove them proudly; their children were comfortable sharing that their family owned a tesla -this car was associated with the future; a popular and attractive electric vehicle with all kinds of built-in safety features; and associated with success..
the culture changed around these good people.. the good people remained good..
and rather suddenly, which can be directly associated with the Trump administration/Elon Musk @ White House, but suddenly,
children were no longer mentioning... and tesla owners were under perpetual threat..
culture changed around good people.. good people were, are, remain good..
-under what circumstance do any of these good people deserve to be suddenly under attack and threat; THEY have done nothing
this sudden liberation to attack innocent, righteous people should be stopped in its tracks. it is criminal.
you can fight for your cause without causing harm to innocent people; this, to my understanding, is what separates the USA from...
SHOULD BE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT SEPARATES the USA from other countries.
upshot: culture IS malleable; it is not 'fixed.' -which means,
it can change again.. it can change back.

random brain spill:
A: invest in nuclear.
and if i was asked to 'show my work..' how i arrived at this answer..
snipet here, snipet there, life experience.. dictates the following is true (from my perspective/view):
unlike the billions-of-dollars, multi-decade, infamous california high speed train that receives gross amounts of funding without requiring any results,
AI will receive gross amounts of funding and get results quickly.
Data centers will pop up with great speed and tax our water/energy resources in dangerous ways.
'dangerous' is a key word..
the 'dangers' of using our current energy resources, with current methods, will result in a validated fear.. perhaps phobia of what will happen to humanity if we continue on this outdated dangerous path..
this turns to
"we must employ nuclear!" - the clean, infinite, energy source.. ; it will make so much sense, we'll all wonder "why didn't we do this a long time ago?!"
they'll add on 'safe' safe is also a key word
the 'safest, cleanest, infinite energy source'
all risks will be downplayed; any rewards will be hyped.
**
it is the direction we are all headed.
but unlike the billions-of-dollars, multi-decade, infamous california high speed train that receives gross amounts of funding without ever getting built,
this AI, data center, nuclear energy rocket IS being built, at record speeds, and will not be stopped.
A: invest in nuclear. /SHEsaysWITHaSMILE, and
research: nuclear energy vs nuclear power vs nuclear weapons.

i am giving my imaginary mixed message award to the Trump Administration:
my heart skips a happy beat to hear about 'high paying JOBS! investments in America! bringing manufacturing back to the USA!
but all this is happening simultaneous with ubiquitous reports about AI, humanoids, replacing humans in the work force...
-in the news: the AI race.. this is between nations..
but we have *a AI, humans, race taking place also, don't we..
* an AI
****
want to note my
-entirely separate.. i've heard the term 'click bait' and have a clear understanding
i just recently heard the term 'rage bait' and was in the process of trying to understand when i came across these two different ways, two different media outlets, reported American Pope Leo XIV's stance on the hot and controversial topic of abortion
one news media outlet reported the Pope described abortion as evil and demonic.
another media outlet reported the Pope described abortion as a sin, and not in line with Catholic values.
and i confess, that i have an experientially different internal reaction to those two, very different vocabularies..

Philippians 3:13-14 leaving all that lies behind, behind... moving pressing forward.
hallelujah! & amen!
