A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much, it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little. -Franklin D. Roosevelt, 32nd US President (30 Jan 1882-1945)

Narrowing of Identity Boundaries: Some gay individuals may narrowly define their #ingroup as consisting only of people with similar sexual orientations, seeing gender identity issues as unrelated or even oppositional.

Hari TulsidasSocial Identity Theory provides insights into political polarization by explaining how individuals categorize themselves into groups, fostering in-group loyalty and out-group hostility. This categorization leads to stronger identification with political parties and increased disdain for opposing views. As people seek to align with their group’s beliefs and norms, polarization intensifies.

Of Bookish ThingsFor all those #ScienceFiction #Writers ou there, here is an #AllternativeHistory #AlloHistorical change that could produce interesting results - what if Taylor Swift's current interest, Travis Kelce, was not a NFL player. Consider the Swift impact on other lesser appreciated activities that Kelce could have chosen.
For Example:
1.playing #Cricket or #Lacrosse (he could be an Olympian)
2. a regional #Poet or New York #Dramatist
3. In the Arts - #FilmPhotography (#Pinhole)
#CollageArt - #AssemblageArt #AsemicArt #VisualPoetry
#FolkDance
4. #Chess Competitor
I'm sure there are other possible endeavours that don't have as wide a public following as the #NFL that could have acquired The #Swifties enthusiastic attention. 😂
