A quotation from Graham Ericsson
Most tyrants are, by nature, short-sighted. Though they aspire to an eternal panoply of statues and symphonies in their honor, they rarely focus on constructive present actions that will lead to a future where their name is even known, let alone praised. As time goes on, they either fall into the delusion of omnipotence, or else become obsessed with holding onto embattled power until the bitter end. Neither mental state leads to laying a healthy foundation for posterity.
Graham Ericsson (b. 1961) American technologist, writer, aphorist

Would it be rash of me to suggest that we are currently living in the Age of Rashionalism? A time when arguments and detractions are made in such haste because we lack tolerance for anyone being wrong on the internet. Also we no longer have the attention span required to think anything through.
It's a worry, but I can either laugh or cry.

Henry Rosenberg: "For people in Texas wondering what the government will do to help flood victims, remember that Trump cut off aid for flood victims in Asheville, North Carolina and he is intent on gutting FEMA, NOAA and the National Weather Service. You voted to be on your own. Your wish is granted."

In 1901, American surgeon John Harvey Gitcomb coined ‘Newyorkitis’ to describe a combination of short-sightedness, rudeness, and hotdog-like protuberance on the face. Surgery was the only remedy but he did like to jokingly prescribe ketchup and mustard to patients first.
