I like the combination terms “nerdy geek” or”geeky nerd”, and wear such labels proudly. But I must admit that you have a way cooler collection of GN tools than I do. Does that qualify as tool envy?😊
Also, with so many states trying to limit discussion on race, sexual identity, and religion; restrict voting access, ban abortions, and dissolve the separation of church and state; and with the growing distrust of science and experts…it certainly feels like our society is regressing.
The 1946 poem by the German Lutheran minister Martin Niemoller comes to mind:
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
