🖋️ Stop Telling Us Why Not. Tell Us Why.

We keep learning that ‘against’ is insufficient .. we need to answer ‘for’.


Not an auspicious start. I wanted to test what Siri ‘knows’. To be fair, phone not finished indexing so maybe that is part of the challenge - coupled with the fact that The Overview isn’t his latest album, although his latest album isn’t fully released either so a little bit of a trick question.
