Has the fist bump replaced the hand shake? I have noticed that since Covid the fist bump is becoming more and more popular. At the same time the hand shake seems to become less popular. Is the fist bump replacing the hand shake? Is the hand shake going extinct? Can the fist bump be used in place of the fist bump or are there still times that call for a hand shake. What about the high five do people still do that or has that been replaced by the fist bump also? Any answers or thoughts would be appreciated.

While many of us have our own gripes with social media, far fewer are catching on that it's the modern version of a panopticon. As you'll see in the Wikipedia article, these structures have been omnipresent throughout history. We don't often think about the common thread between architecture and psychological impact. However... why limit that to the physical, when you can have the same effect as prisons everywhere in the world through an endless scape? - Where you don't even need a guard present? - Where people police each other? - Where all you have to do is introduce mentally and emotionally triggering content, socially engineered to provoke strong fear-based reactions? - Where we no longer need gladiators in a colosseum, when it can be everywhere, recorded, and "go viral" to defeat each other with the power of a literal world-wide audience to judge? - Where both the public and private sector higher-ups can pretend to be at odds to create divisive loyalty from the followers, but from behind the closed doors to the surveillance room, toast to such successful control while brokering quid-pro-quo deals? While anything can be a beneficial tool if used right (such as our society compared to the bulk of social media), this is why I have abstained from most social media since 2020. Thoughts? How do you maintain the balance, if you dabble? How many have realized true power and confidence comes from the acceptance of self, and that only fear seeks validation?

Greetings gents, it is said the antidote to judgement and self-righteousness is empathy and self-awareness. In fact, empathy is one of our core values within the Society. As such, I would like to share this simple yet profound message with you. As we prepare for tomorrow, Thanksgiving, let's meet some of our wayward relatives and friends with a fresh set of lens. Cheers
