Secular Sunday – Are You In The Game or Playing The Game?

Easily one of my favourite posters on TikTok. This theory has a bit of the Red Pill/Blue Pill stuff that’s from the Matrix but in a less incel/nihlistic way of looking at things – more like “You know this is all not real. It has no meaning.

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Civic Engagement (February 2004, June 2009, Sept 2025)

I feel so fortunate to have grown up with parents who instilled a love of reading, news, politics and community engagement into me from a young age.
