AI COVERS
More to come...
I woke up to the new year both excited and exhausted. As I normally do, I was contemplating what I wanted to bring into 2026 đ€
Well the two things I can't stop thinking about are how the world is doing both politically and economically and how AI will affect both. I'm also trying to practice detachment to things I can't control because frankly all this chaos is making my nerves a bit crispy.
So my solution is to use my writing and visual skills to express myself by posting AI Covers.
Basically, I am going to spend the next year using magazine covers as snapshots of conversations I believe these publications should be fostering with our leaders and fellow citizens. You might ask why in a time of digital communication (videos & podcasts) am I focused on this? Well because covers of magazines are the pre-meme original way to draw the masses attention to a topic. They shaped my ideas when I was young and I think they and the articles that accompany them are very important.
I will be tagging these magazines on social media so that it is clear I am the creator in case the ideas spread and also I want to be upfront these covers are not real but AI/Joy-generated from the ideas I want to write about. My hope is to foster conversations about the various ways AI will be affecting every industry and our world.
Which leads me back to the origins of this blog: Good Capitalism.
We are living through the most exciting times of existence. I'm so thrilled to be alive to see it! AND... we have not shown we are very good stewards of each other and our planet so I can't sit by and do nothing. This is me shouting into the void that is our Universe and hoping my voice can be heard. What the hell might as well give it a go đ before we are taken over đ€

GOOD CAPITALISM or ... Goodbye World
Good Capitalism 2025 project is a powerful, bold, and compelling call to reframe ESG through the lens of urgency, humanity, and systemic risk. You've successfully distilled complex ideas into an engaging, almost conversational style, which is a major strength.
Nice, right?!
Well then in a moment of meta perfection, this is the #1 thing it told me I needed to improve on:

Prove Me Wrong: Civil Debate Not Hate
And, if we keep dividing ourselves into pools of only people we agree with we will have a hard time uniting to fight real battles to come. If we can't civilly discuss royalty and race how are we ever going to get to the even touchier topic of religion and our environmental crisis.
So above is my attempt to come up with a solution đĄđș
Because what our world needs now is less bullying and bravado and more honest debate without all the hate

The Nobel Question: Will You Be Remembered for.. Destruction đ§š or Peace? ✌️
We are in surreal times... the Trump administration, the pandemic, half the nation upset with the other half over their denial regarding what's true (or not) about both.
You need not be American to partake in the battle over what's going on in the US, as is captured in above Q&A clip with former Prime Minister of Australia, Malcolm Turnbull, getting into it with The Australian's editor, Paul Kelly. News Corp & Rupert Murdoch's influence in Australia is as hot a topic down under as is Fox News' here.
Which reminded me of one of my favorite stories of all time.. how there came to be The Nobel Peace Prize:
When Alfred Nobel's brother, Ludvig, died the obituary accidentally named Alfred and stated Le marchand de la mort est mort
Appalled that this is how he would be remembered, his last will specified that his fortune be used to create a series of prizes for those who confer the "greatest benefit on mankind" in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace.
119 years later a Nobel Prize is known as an honor and as a contribution to humanity.
Are we looking to blow things up and cause more destruction
or bring our nation and our world together and create peace?
What do we Prize?

Go Ahead Apple, Make my ... iDay!
Every day in this pandemic-pause has seemed to blend together so I would really like a little organization to help me keep track of what happened today, yesterday and last month. The data is all there so my request is that Apple make my day an iDay snapshot.
Thanks, Apple!

Pro-Life Christians' Best Bet Is Biden
- Birth Control: Jesus said nothing about birth control. Even the be fruitful instructions God had given to Adam and Eve were from the Old Testament and with a population of nearly 8 BILLION people from TWO... I think we can check that box ✅ !
- More birth control, especially if it was free to all, would dramatically reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies, abortions and deaths from poverty in the world.
- Sex: Mary was 12 when God impregnated her and she had Jesus. This has historically been an age that would have been acceptable to marry off daughters. This also corresponds with when females begin to menstruate. So if God (and Mother Nature) think 12 is when females are ready to procreate is that what we want for our daughters?
- Of course not! When times change we do as well. And as a society we don't want young girls having sex and babies so we modify what we now know is a more healthy range for the times we are living in.
- Pre-martial sex is also considered a sin and yet most of us have partaken so which is worse: not multiplying or having sex?
- Freedom: Attorney General Bill Barr as well as several governors and the whole anti-mask movement are decrying how horrible, only second to slavery, stay-at-home and masks orders are in our country. Covid protections enacted to save lives are tyranny and yet they want to restrict what a woman can do with her own body when it comes to reproduction.
- Healthcare: Pro-life includes the born as well and Biden/Harris and Democrats want more healthcare, especially for children and seniors. Feeding kids that are here, caring for the sick among us and supporting the poor will save more lives and bring about a better world and are far more Christian than tax cuts for billionaires.
Gun Control helps with Commandment 6: thou shalt not kill.
