I sometimes wonder aloud if Berry had a crystal ball…

Wendell Berry – The Mad Farmer Liberation Front:
Not even your future will be a mystery
any more. Your mind will be punched in a card
and shut away in a little drawer.
When they want you to buy something
they will call you. When they want you
to die for profit they will let you know.

Of course he didn’t, but sometimes I get too caught up in the shiny to do things that won’t compute.

I hope to get to that point someday.

The future/present I have in mind for my daughters and my students does not include having their minds being stored on a company’s cloud ready to serve up relevant ads from the highest bidder.
