Finished #firewatch just now... I'm so melancholic right now. Loved the characters, the pace and the story. One of the #games I liked more, maybe just a little less than #toTheMoon.
Worth every single penny.
This fascinating and hopeful article shows the value of early years intervention on getting parents to read to, play with and talk to their children, whether newborn or already in school. #SouthAfrica#EarlyYears#Children#VirtuousHope#Reading#Play
May the image take you to a hillside filled with wildflowers, on a perfect sunny day in late spring -- and may you connect with that wild child within you who runs and jumps and dreams and plays.
Sometimes I just want to play a simple game of #Solitaire, no fuss, no need to sign into anything, just #play. #Windows95 might be nearly 30 years old, but it certainly plays a vital role in my life on a Saturday night.
May the image take you to a perfect summer day, one in which you have no obligations or anything written on a schedule, and you are free to dream . . .
What if I wore all black alpaca wool clothing for improved healthy and aesthetic and comfort, and then did a silly lil thing of running away and bouncing around on my bed and hiding behind the feather pillar!
Young children don't need toys and technology to learn; they acquire knowledge through observing and being in nature, and allowing free run of their imagination.
I postulate that we adults, who have been trained out of this means of educating ourselves, could benefit by letting our wild spirit run free.
Today in Labor History February 11, 1938: BBC Television produced the world's first ever science fiction television program, an adaptation of a section of the Karel Čapek play R.U.R., that coined the term "robot." He derived the word “robot” from the Czech word for forced labor by Serfs. R.U.R. is an archetype for many of the science fiction stories and films that followed, like Bladerunner, West World and Terminator, and others about robots, replicants and hosts that rebel against humans. However, “R.U.R.,” like Čapek’s 1936 novel “War with the Newts,” is also a satirical critique of totalitarianism, which was already on the rise in Europe at the time he wrote the play.
Today in Labor History February 7, 1917: A court wrongly convicted labor organizer Tom Mooney for the San Francisco Preparedness Day bombing in July 1916. The governor finally granted him an unconditional pardon after 22.5 years of incarceration. 10 people died in the bombing and 40 were injured. A jury convicted two labor leaders, Thomas Mooney and Warren Billings, based on false testimony. Both were pardoned in 1939. Not surprisingly, only anarchists were suspected in the bombing. A few days after the bombing, they searched and seized materials from the offices of “The Blast,” Alexander Berkman and Emma Goldman’s local paper. They also threatened to arrest Berkman.
In 1931, while they were still in prison, I. J. Golden persuaded the Provincetown Theater to produce his play, “Precedent,” about the Mooney and Billings case. Brooks Atkinson of the New York Times wrote, “By sparing the heroics and confining himself chiefly to a temperate exposition of his case [Golden] has made “Precedent” the most engrossing political drama since the Sacco-Vanzetti play entitled Gods of the Lightening… Friends of Tom Mooney will rejoice to have his case told so crisply and vividly.”
