A generation of kids growing up without reading books isn't just a generation that reads less - it's a generation slowly losing the muscle for empathy. Because books aren't just stories. They're training grounds for imagination, for slipping into someone else's life,

Most believe that a satisfactory future requires a return to an idealized past, a past which never in fact existed.

Thank you @billieeilish for “What was I Made For”. It’s a beautiful song. My 6 year old son is listening to it on repeat tonight as he falls asleep.

SCAM ALERT – Fraudsters posing as taxi operators and passengers are hitting Winnipeggers with a new fraud designed to drain the victim's bank account in a card skimming operation.
Vehicles with fake TAXI signs on their roofs roam high-traffic areas, such as mall parking lots. A person acting as a passenger exits the vehicle and approaches a bystander, advising that the taxi does not accept cash and asking if the bystander will use their debit card to pay for their fare in exchange for cash.
Once the victim's card is acquired, surreptitious skimming techniques are used to withdraw far more money than the alleged fare amount.
