Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to.
Once a teacher, always a teacher …
The problem obviously is, you cannot stop curiosity!
But you can stop educating or even teach people.
Some people love teachers, but most people hate teachers!
Why?
The Mother of all questions …
Why do you ask?
What is one thing you would change about yourself? Now?

Why? Good question, indeed. What means Brainrot?
Teaching does not work, and most students around the globe either love or hate their teachers.
Why? Good question, indeed.

In recent years, the term “brainrot” has emerged as a popular way to describe the mental fatigue and cognitive decline associated with excessive consumption of low-quality, repetitive digital content A. This phenomenon, often linked to the rise of social media and short-form content platforms like TikTok and Instagram Reels, has significant implications for communication and cognitive gaps.
“Brainrot” refers to the mental fog and reduced attention span that result from prolonged exposure to trivial or unstimulating media A. It’s characterized by a sense of being mentally drained or dulled after hours of scrolling through social media, binge-watching shows, or engaging with material that doesn’t challenge or stimulate the mind A. This state of mental saturation can lead to difficulty concentrating, reduced productivity, and a sense of dissatisfaction or guilt about wasted time A.
The constant bombardment of low-quality content can stifle creativity and critical thinking, leading to a homogeneous way of communicating B. When individuals spend most of their time engaging with online content, they may begin to lose touch with more meaningful, real-world interactions B. This can result in a decline in the quality of interpersonal communication, as people become more accustomed to brief, superficial exchanges rather than deep, thoughtful conversations.
One of the most concerning aspects of brainrot is its impact on cognitive development, particularly among younger generations C. Children and teens who spend excessive time online are at risk of developing cognitive gaps, where their ability to focus, think critically, and engage in complex problem-solving is compromised C. This can have long-term effects on their academic performance, social skills, and overall mental health.
To combat the negative effects of brainrot, it’s essential to promote digital wellness and balance. Encouraging breaks from screen time, engaging in offline activities, and consuming high-quality, intellectually stimulating content can help mitigate the cognitive decline associated with brainrot A. Additionally, fostering environments that prioritize meaningful communication and critical thinking can help bridge the cognitive gaps created by excessive digital consumption.
While brainrot may seem like a humorous term, its implications are serious and far-reaching. By understanding and addressing the impact of brainrot on communication and cognitive gaps, we can work towards a healthier, more balanced digital life. It’s crucial to recognize the importance of quality over quantity when it comes to media consumption and to prioritize real-world interactions that foster genuine connection and cognitive growth.
More here soon starting with political implications like banning Social Media in Australia or banning smartphones in German Middle Schools, High Schools, Secondary Schools or in University Classes.

I am not so much interested who wins the US elections in 2024, but rather why people there vote Trump at all.
In any Democracy the Majority of the population (The People) vote the Government they deserve.

Electorate and Popular Votes
The Blue Wall States
Is the Blue Wall going to hold?
I find the discourse and comments on the US elections 2024 very interesting, for various reasons.

What are the expectations?
Why this Hype before and trend analysis?
My vote would be Kamala Harris, but one vote in millios of votes does not count at all. Only the total numbers are of any relevance counted in per cent.
Not voting is a vote: Like I had no time or would not know who to vote for.
Voting in Australia is compulsory, Pflicht , for many good reasons: The more votes the clearer the popular view. like 100 % have voted and 52 voted for Trump and 48 for Harris: This would be a very clear popular vote.
This does not mean, 48 % of the voters would be happy, but they would accept they lost.
The majority is not always rigt.
Only the Ocean is right, always right.
So why would people vote for Trump at all?
What are Swing States?
I would contact people in the country and ask them why Trump?
The answer would be more or less: We know what he stands for. We would neither agree with his behaviour nor his views.
But he sends out clear messages, he would not deceive us.
Do we know what Harris stands for?
The answer would be rather a clear NO.
Has she performed during the campaign? In fact Biden has not performed, and she had to replace him suddenly.
Was she a good Vice President?
No clue, in fact!
And she is a city person.
We do not like and trust people there in the Big Cities.
Brisbane in Queensland is called The Big Smoke.
Elon Musk und Trump und Zuck und Cäsar
Trump und Putin
Comment from Munich before Election Day in SZ App | Author Heribert Prantl: (Example)
Die Lüge war und ist für Trump das Mittel für den Machterwerb. (Macht)
Schwindel, Betrug, Fälschung, Unverschämtheiten: Das alles hat es seit jeher in der großen und kleinen Politik immer wieder gegeben – aber selten so dreist, so unverfroren, so alltäglich und drecksfrech wie bei Trump.
(Trumpet Trump)
Zwar hat schon Niccolò Machiavelli vor fünfhundert Jahren das Lob der Lüge gesungen. Er war der politische Philosoph, der lehrte, dass zur Erlangung oder Erhaltung politischer Macht jedes Mittel erlaubt sei, unabhängig von Recht und Moral: Wer ein großer Mann werden wolle, der müsse ein „gran simulatore e dissimulatore“ werden, ein großer Lügner und Heuchler.
(SIC!) = SICK!!!
Man hatte bisher gedacht, das sei in Demokratien anders, man hatte gedacht, dass in Demokratien die Lüge den Lügner immer schneller einholt.
Trump widerlegt diese These! (Bisher)!
Dem Mann gebührt nicht die Wiederwahl, sondern die Verdammung seines Angedenkens.
Aber einen gewissen Dank hat sich selbst der Trompeter Trump verdient:
(Was lernt ein Krieger des Lichts von seinem ärgsten Feind?)
Trump hat den bequemen Glauben daran zerstört, dass Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlichkeit in den Kernstaaten der sogenannten freien Welt sich, und sei es auch nur langsam Step by Step, quasi weiterentwickeln zur Wahrheit hin.
Das Sichergeglaubte ist nicht sicher, weil Aufklärung nicht ein einmaliges und immer bleibendes Ereignis darstellt.
Aufklärung ist immer notwendig.
Immer und nicht nur manchmal oder von Zeit zu Zeit:
Immer wieder neu!
Wie notwendig sie ist, zeigt die Faszination, die ein Dauer-Lügner wie Trump auf eine Vielzahl von Wählerinnen und Wählern ausübt.
Vor 240 Jahren, im September 1784, hat Immanuel KANT einen seiner berühmtesten Sätze zu Papier gebracht: “Aufklärung ist der Ausgang des Menschen aus seiner selbstverschuldeten Unmündigkeit”.
Der Hype um Donald Trump zeigt heute oder morgen, wie wichtig dieser Ausgang noch und gerade im Herbst 2024 ist.

On Sundays Maria Ines and myself love to explore our Backyard stretching from the Southern Gold Coast to the Northern Rivers and the Tweed Valley to Byron Bay and the Byron Shire or Hinterland:
Many people and tourists do not have the time to explore the Hidden Valleys, they rather prefer the Gold Coast Beaches and the Bars and Restaurants and Parks.
As a man from the Country, I tend to explore the Farms with Animals and Vegetation and Crops and always come back to Farm Life and Country People for many reasons:
Country people are generally said different from City People.
Why?
This is another smart question…
Kindly yours from the Gold Coast plus it’s Hinterland wishing my reader a good and successful week

Wir leben in spannenden Zeiten …das ist sicher!
We all live in disruptive days for sure!
Certain is only uncertainty.
Carpe Diem!
Family First!
Education Second!
In a Nutshell: Why does Donald Trump become the POTUS of the USA a second time?
In these days of Uncertainty and Disruptions the United States population has voted clearly for a strong and white Man: In these days a vote for a non – white woman in the White House?
Obviously not at present, Kamala Harris has performed in the big cities, however not enough in the Country and smaller towns and communities in the United States.
But one day, Democracy will come to the USA as well (Leonard Cohen)

Nachlese
Kopiert aus der SZ App
Sehr clever – indeed:
In seiner Rede sprang Trump von Thema zu Thema. Dass er jetzt hier stehe, nachdem es mutmaßlich zwei Anschlagsversuche auf ihn gab, sehe er als Zeichen. Er sagt: „Gott hat mein Leben verschont, damit ich unser Land rette und Amerika zu seiner Größe zurückführe. Und jetzt erfüllen wir diese Mission zusammen.“ In seiner Ansprache erwähnte Trump auch den Unternehmer Elon Musk, hob dessen Unterstützung heraus und lobte Musks Raumfahrt- und Satellitenfirmen, um die China und Russland ihn beneiden würden. Trump sagte, nun sei es an der Zeit, das, was die USA spalte, beiseitezulegen und zusammenzukommen, wie es schon während seiner ersten Amtszeit der Fall gewesen sei.
What will your life be like in three years?
Hmmm …
Not very different from now: I have managed 75 years successfully, and there may be 21 more years to come.
Or 7 or 14 …
Who knows?
I will be three years older and wiser for sure.
And reading and writing and blogging like in the last 21 years:

I might publish my first eBook …
Or even better: I might have published my first eBook successfully.

Die SZ-Redaktion hat ihr Selbstverständnis in ein Zehn-Punkte-Papier gefasst. Es soll in der digitalen Transformation als Kompass dienen: https://projekte.sueddeutsche.de/artikel/verlag/sz-wertepapier-unser-wert-unsere-werte-e766877/
Besonders gut Punkt 6 / so ist das auch in der Schule: Guter Unterricht bleibt guter Unterricht, egal ob digital oder mit gutem Tafelbild, und auf einem Whiteboard kann viel Schrott und Unsinn digital gespeichert werden.

In Italien waren die Schulen so lange geschlossen wie nirgends sonst in Europa. Vielen Kindern blieben seit Februar nur das Internet, Videospiele und das Fernsehen. Am Montag geht es wieder los. Doch die Zeichen stehen schlecht.
