What you see online is not real. This has long been a reliable axiom for information consumption on the internet. But social media and SEO marketers have long relied on their engagement metrics as an exception to that rule—critical quantitative data that can't be faked and can be leveraged to demonstrate the value of a campaign or piece of content. Except in 2025, it's just not reliable any more. That is because sophisticated operations called "bot farms" have built swarms of networked smart phones designed to mimic the organic engagement that drives social media algorithms. At a command, these bot farms can create a cascade of authentic-seeming engagement that's nearly indistinguishable from the real thing, catapulting selected posts to the top of social media feeds. International state actors can wage propaganda wars. Financial influencers can pump up the value of assets they hold. And, more and more, global brands can leverage bot activity to drive their messaging to the top of feeds, manufacture social proof, and astro-turf the impression of favorability. So in this episode, we're talking to digital PR expert Eric Schwartzman, whose firm helps clients with brand management, reputation monitoring, crisis management, and corporate communications. He also recently published an expose for Fast Company on the rise of bot farms and its implications. Together, we'll learn how bot farmers manipulate the algorithm, what means are available to detect inauthentic activity, and why social media networks are slow to react. Plus, we'll explore the moral quandary that social media and SEO marketers increasingly face in this brave new world: If everyone else is using bots to drive engagement... should you?

Sermon by Michael Bailey on May 25, 2025.Key scripture: Ecclesiastes 1:1-11“Meaningless, meaningless… everything is meaningless.” That's the opening line, and somehow the beginning of hope. Week one in Ecclesiastes shows us why everything “under the sun” eventually lets us down—and how life with God brings joy to even the most ordinary days.

Zachary Hill reacts to Moody's downgrading the U.S.'s credit rating, saying that it told everyone something they already knew years ago. He thinks the tax bill can make things “worse” from here and says the market is challenging right now for investors “of all stripes.” On economic data, he says hard data is “totally meaningless in this environment” because of tariff policy uncertainties.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

By week 18, more than 50% of the rivalry divisional games are meaningless. Nick believes those games should be scheduled at some point earlier in the season so they actually mean something when they're played.

Join Phil and PK as we go through the Bandits 14-11 loss to the Georgia Swarm which was meaningless for the Standings (3:01). We break down what happened in week 21 across the NLL and look towards the playoffs (24:44). And we close out the show seeing how we both faired in of preseason bold Sabre Predictions (43:08). This episode is sponsored by Tap That Tap Room, Totally Buffalo Store and Frase Flowers

When loss leaves us feeling like nothing matters, where do we turn? In part three of our Lewis & Loss series, we dive into C.S. Lewis’ honest questions about whether anything matters in the face of grief. Guided by Lewis' book, A Grief Observed, Brandon explores how sorrow can feel empty—but also how love and suffering are deeply connected. Listen in as we discuss how God has greatly suffered with us, ultimately defining the purpose of our grief.Episode Resources:A Grief Observed by C.S.

Okay, sweet one, let's talk about the grand lie of having a purpose. Because hasn't everyone, at some point, stared into their organic kale salad and wondered, "WHY am I here?"Really, isn't that THE question? We're all chasing that deeper something, the elusive unicorn of purpose, because, well, we think it equals happiness. Glitter cannons and rainbows!Basically, aren't we all just hunting for joy through our jobs, our love lives, and maybe that overpriced yoga retreat? Because let's be honest, if those things led to misery, we'd be binge-watching Netflix instead. (Okay, some days we do both.)So, how do you actually find this magical life purpose?If you boil down every self-help book ever written (and I've read a LOT), two ideas bubble to the surface, like so much kombucha. They create two distinct, shall we say, *vibes* about Life.Vibe #1: Purpose is “Out There!”This is the story we're constantly sold, the narrative with all the bells and whistles. It's the idea that purpose and happiness are about *doing* and *getting*.What exactly are you supposed to be getting?Well, according to the marketing gurus (who are probably sipping martinis on a yacht somewhere), it's always - More! Better!More experiences, more influence, a passive income stream that makes your eyes water, a better house with a walk-in closet for your shoes, a better job that feeds your soul AND pays the bills, better sex (because, duh), and for the truly enlightened, a better, more Instagrammable spirituality.It's always *better* than what you've got right now, darling. But here's the cosmic joke: More and Better *never* actually deliver. As that wise old grump Ecclesiastes put it: "Meaningless! Meaningless! Everything is meaningless! But…life is still amazing.” (Even he couldn't help but throw in an "amazing" at the end!)We all kinda know this, right? We feel it in our bones after every online shopping spree. Still, those clever ads keep whispering promises. So, we jump back on the hamster wheel, convinced *this time* it'll be different. A new job! A soulmate who understands our obsession with miniature dachshunds! A truly transformative experience involving a llama!The catch? It's always a future promise. "Once I _______, then I'll find purpose/happiness/meaning."Once I quit my soul-crushing job, I'll finally be happy.Once I meet Mr./Ms. Right, then I'll know what love REALLY is.The future, my friend, is perpetually "tomorrow." That's the lie behind Vibe #1. The “hedonic treadmill” will leave you exhausted and feeling slightly used. Vibe #2: Your Purpose and Happiness are *Here, Now* Because Honey, *You ARE* the Purpose.The mind really throws a tantrum at this one based on how we've been programmed to have a “PURPOSE.”What if the truth is ridiculously simple: You *are* your purpose? You're here to know and be your glorious, messy, authentic Self as you cast your VISION and allow the listening to answer your CALLING (more on this on my next series of purpose). Seriously, pause for a moment and let that sink in.You're here to express your utterly unique, wonderfully weird, creative Self fully, freely, and fearlessly.Everything else such as your creativity, your relationships, your questionable fashion choices – are just sparkling byproducts of you being *you*.Knowing and being yourself? That's the answer to "What is my highest purpose and the source of my deepest freakin' joy?"The hitch? We've forgotten who we are. From childhood, we get handed a cookie-cutter mold for the "Good Life" who to be, what to want, what success looks like.So, we spend our lives trying to squish ourselves into that mold, developing a seriously messed-up case of mistaken identity. Then BAM! Quarter-life crises! Mid-life meltdowns! (It's all very dramatic, really.) So, how do you start?Embrace the Disillusionment, Darling.If you're feeling a little… blah about life, congratulations! You're right where you need to be. Disillusionment is inevitable. We no longer grasp to who we thought we were, and the one “purpose” we have in this life - and feeling that pressure!Even if you achieve all the things, the shine wears off. (That's just physics.)Own it. There's wisdom in that “blah” feeling. The pain of disillusionment can unlock a whole new, glittery world of freedom and possibilities.Why?Disillusionment means shedding the illusions. Seeing through the B.S. The cultural story that says purpose is “out there” is just a cleverly disguised sales pitch.You've checked the boxes, achieved the goals. But how long did it last? How long before you were chasing the next spiritual high?Spiritual goals are fabulous, but notice how we're always trying to *escape* those uncomfortable feelings.We launch projects, start cleanses, binge-watch cat videos. But eventually, we're back to the same damn questions.Wherever you go, there you are (and your existential baggage). So, you might as well embrace it.Disillusionment is an invitation. Like a pang of hunger, it's your True Self nudging you toward the truth.Look around. Mental illness is on the rise. Loneliness is an epidemic. People are quietly quitting their lives. Clearly, something's gotta give. The way we work, the way we live, the way we define "purpose"… it's all crumbling.That old story that purpose is “out there” keeps us stuck. That's the real question, isn't it? Who are you?Or, more accurately, *what* are you?Time to reframe this, Darling.What Is Your Vision and Soul Calling?A Vision is the art of seeing life's possibilities unfold—a profound and intuitive process that bridges the gap between your inner truth and the external world. It invites you to see not only the road ahead but also the unseen opportunities that lie along your path. Unlike conventional purpose driven vision, which often confines itself to specific, tangible goals, a calling embraces the unknown and empowers you to trust in the unfolding of your life's purpose. It is both a lens and a compass, helping you navigate toward your authentic self.The roots of the word “vision” are steeped in ancient wisdom. Derived from the Proto-Indo-European WEID, meaning “to see” or “to know,” the concept of vision transcends time and space. It reminds you that seeing is not merely a physical act but a deeper knowing—a connection to clarity and purpose that originates from within. THEREFORE. The vision Creates the PATH. Your Calling, is your Life's pursuit of multiple variations as a creator - offering insight and guidance that arises organically from your inner self, rather than being dictated by external expectations.Kassandra

NBA Play in talk, 12 VGK have some games - that don't mean a whole lot...., 22 David Roth, 35 WNBA - Aces Draft

The Lakers finished up their season on the road in the former Rose Garden but without several of their rotation pieces as they rested up for the first round of the NBA Playoffs. And with the Lakers bringing out the benchwarmers, they served as easy fodder for Portland as they cruised to an easy 109-81 victory over the Lakers. Tune in as the dust from the final day of the season gets settled and we start sizing up our first-round playoff opponent, the Minnesota Timberwolves. The guys at the LFB size up the competition and start gauging if LA can make a big run in this year's playoffs.

I suddenly heard a dog ferociously barking at my car. 

Send us a textMeaninglessness haunts our hyper-connected yet spiritually adrift world. Why does Solomon, history's wisest and wealthiest king, begin Ecclesiastes with the jarring declaration that everything is "meaningless"? Our exploration of this ancient wisdom reveals a startlingly modern diagnosis of our existential emptiness.We discover that meaning requires direction – like ladder rungs connected to sides rather than clanging uselessly in the air. Solomon's exhaustive experiment with fulfillment (detailed in chapter 2) reads like a billionaire's bucket list gone wrong: pleasure, laughter, substance experimentation, building projects, material excess, entertainment, sexual indulgence, and even achievement. Each pathway led to the same conclusion: vapor, emptiness, nothing substantial to grasp.What makes Ecclesiastes uniquely powerful is its unflinching honesty about reality. Good people die young. Wicked people prosper. Chance happens to everyone. These observations resonate deeply with those who've found themselves "at the bottom of the glass" wondering what it all means. Solomon doesn't offer platitudes; he acknowledges the world's brokenness while pointing toward what's been lost.Support the show

UFC Vegas 105 was miserable on paper and didn't provide much more in practice. From weird judging to lackluster performances, the big moments we DID have just didn't seem as impactful. There were a few surprises, though. Rhys McKee finally got a win, and a big one. Brad Tavares didn't let Gerald Meerschaert have his way. Then there were the expected outcomes: Dione Barbosa finished Diana Belbita super fast and Loma Lookboonmee added another win to her resume, handing Istela Nunes her 5th straight loss.

John 4:13-14, "Everyone who drinks this water, will be thirsty again; but whoever drinks the water I give him, will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."We see in these words of Jesus, the mirage of worldly satisfaction. The world offers a thousand fleeting pleasures, each promising contentment, but leaving the soul emptier than before. Wealth, success, romance, entertainment--these are the unsatisfying waters of this world, and those who drink them will always thirst again. Many chase after these things, believing that if they only had a little more--more money, more fame, more indulgence--that they would finally be fulfilled. King Solomon testifies that this is a vain pursuit: "Meaningless! Meaningless! Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless!" Ecclesiastes 1:2Sinful pleasures, though they may be sweet in the mouth, are bitter in the belly. They are poisoned wells, that lead only to destruction! Those who seek their satisfaction in these noxious things, will find that they have exchanged their everlasting souls for poor fleeting trifles. Their end is eternal thirst--eternal regret--eternal torment in Hell. Jesus Himself warns us: "What will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world, and loses his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?" Mark 8:36Yet Jesus offers something infinitely greater--living water. This is not a temporary refreshment that fades away, but a perpetual spring welling up to eternal life. Those who drink of this water will never thirst again, for in Jesus all the soul's deepest needs are met. Those whom Jesus has truly saved, have experienced the fle

On this week's Keepin It Real, Cam Marston shares what exhausts him and how a good conversation is hard to find. ----- It was 1,000 one-minute conversations. A collection of people who all were within a degree, maybe a half a degree, of separation. Hardly a meaningful chat and as the event wore on, the meaningfulness of the chats dwindled further. For so little conversation, it was exhausting. I think maybe that conversations that skim along the veneer of content are more taxing than digging into content. I don't know. But when I left, I was completely spent. I'm like so many other people claiming that technology has impacted today's youth's ability to communicate. I bemoan their addicted behaviors when it comes to their phones. Technology has impacted their ability to talk, I say, or to hold a conversation, or to make eye contact. Today's technology has made them only interested in what everyone else is doing or saying, unable to engage with what's happening right here, right now, right in front of them. However, my own behavior at this event wasn't much different than the complaints I make about them. I can imagine how I looked, flitting from person to person, hardly engaging anyone, only looking for what's next and who else was there. The event was spectacular. I was the problem. Not long ago I read about a couple who were invited to a dinner party. They normally decline these invitations because they abhor small talk; it wears them out. The host, however, insisted and the couple begrudgingly showed up, fake smiles pasted on their faces. Once the final guests arrived and all were seated for dinner, the host asked a bombshell question: “How do each of you deal with your marital conflicts?” After a moment of stunned silence, the couples began sharing their stories and their tactics and their lessons learned. There was no small talk to be had. It was an immediate deep dive into meaningful content. The reluctant couple had said to each other they'd stay until it was acceptable to leave. They had their departure excuse rehearsed. However, they ended up staying until well after midnight and left energized by the conversations, not depleted. I had lunch with a guy a while back. I had shared a book I enjoyed with him weeks before. When he and I sat down, I asked him what he felt his purpose in life were, which was a major element of the book. When his tone changed and he began subtly mocking me thinking I didn't notice, I realized I had rushed things. It was too soon for that question. Was it too soon in our lunch? Too soon in our friendship? I don't know. We both hurried the lunch to a close and he's avoided me ever since. I was searching for meaningful content and assumed he'd join me. He was having none of it and none of me. It's too bad, too. He's an interesting guy. Like most people my age, I'm old enough now that I know a good number of people. I wanted that at one point and, well, here I am. However, at my age, I'm old enough now to realize that I want to know, truly know, many, many fewer. I'm Cam Marston and I'm just trying to Keep It Real.

Welcome back to Ryan and Brian's Bible Bistro! In this episode, hosts Ryan and Brian explore what worship really means. Inspired by the late '90s Christian song "The Heart of Worship" by Matt Redman, they discuss how worship is less about getting the form right—hymns, modern songs, or rituals—and more about the heart behind it. They start with a throwback to the "Worship Wars" of the '90s and a funny story from Ryan's early days as a worship leader (spoiler: someone wasn't thrilled about a missing hymn!). Then they dive into Scripture, beginning with Zechariah 7, where God questions the motives behind fasting, and moving through 1 Samuel, Isaiah, Micah, the Psalms, and Jesus' run-ins with the Pharisees in the Gospels. The main point? God values a heart focused on justice, mercy, and humility over perfect religious routines. From Saul's half-hearted obedience to the Pharisees' rule obsession to modern debates over worship styles, it's clear: worship should change us, not just be a task to complete. Ryan and Brian share personal takes too—covering Lent, the Lord's Supper, and even Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (no judgment on your snacks). They wrestle with balancing form and heart, asking: How do we keep worship meaningful without fixating on the "how-to"?

It's Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel is engaging with students at Kennesaw State University, exploring topics like the complexity of the human body pointing to a creator, why Christianity offers real hope that postmodernism cannot, and how the Bible satisfies life's biggest questions. Segment 1: • Does Your Body Prove God Exists? – Is the complexity of your own body evidence of a creator, or just a product of evolution? • Why God's Justice Affects You – If God is truly just, what does that mean for you and your eternal future? Segment 2: • Can Good Deeds Erase Bad Ones? – Why trying to “balance” good and bad actions doesn't work in a legal or spiritual sense. • The Resurrection Proves It All – If Jesus truly rose from the dead, does that confirm everything He said? Segment 3: • Is Life Just Luck and Meaningless? – If we're just lucky cosmic accidents, does anything we do actually matter? • Where Can You Find Purpose? – Without a clear answer to life's biggest questions, you are destined to chase after empty things Segment 4: • What's the Real Purpose of Life? – If you aren't doing everything for God, is it all meaningless? • God's reason for the universe – How God displays His mercy, grace, and lovingkindness by saving sinners like you and me. ___ Preorder the new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me, by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme ___ Thanks for listening!

In this episode, I'm going to break down why we need to stop obsessing over our weight and what we should be focusing on instead.  

We're talking movies, we're debating sports, and we're throwing some spicy takes. It's a debate where nothing matters except for what Mike decides is right! 

When we're facing a challenge, or taking on a new task, it's helpful to be able to check in with someone who's been there and done that. In a sense, that's what the teacher is doing for us here. Our study today explores the take-aways from some very extravagant examples of “been there done that.” Ecclesiastes 2 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Do you ever feel like everything is meaningless? Well according to Ecclesiastes, it is. How do we navigate this? Why do we keep pushing on? Join me today for a real talk on life and hope.

The spiritual path begins with a mind conditioned by anger, attachment, and ignorance—and a stirring wish for change. The culmination of the path is a mind liberated—compassionate, boundless, and freed by wisdom. What comes between is unyielding, joyful effort.  Buddha himself and his disciples are the living proof that the task is not beyond our reach. They show us that anyone who follows the path can accomplish the same goals. But what is needed is effort. The three obstacles to spiritual effort Procrastination  Attachment to what is meaningless or non-virtuous Discouragement Procrastination Procrastination is the quiet voice that says, "Not now," allowing us to put off the work of self-cultivation until some elusive "better time." This postponement becomes a barrier that subtly entrenches old habits, robbing us of the momentum we need to progress. Overcoming procrastination requires recognizing that each moment offers a unique chance for growth.  A traditional antidote to procrastination is remembering the preciousness of this human life, which affords us everything we need to attain enlightenment in this very lifetime! We can also remind ourselves that we don't know how long this particular human vehicle will last (it does seem to have more squeaks and problems under the hood than it used to!) In reality, the time of death is uncertain. Now is the time! Attachment to What is Meaningless or Non-virtuous We can check whether we are devoting too much time to fleeting pleasures, material desires, or activities that may bring temporary satisfaction but leave us feeling empty. Attachment to what is meaningless or non-virtuous distracts us from pursuing true joy and clarity. Perhaps we discover we don't just enjoy playing video games or binge-watching Netflix; we've become ensnared!  Overcoming this attachment requires discerning the difference between fleeting pleasures and the enduring fulfillment of spiritual progress, choosing the latter as our aim. Every time we choose spiritual practice and activities, we loosen the grip of those attachments that block our spiritual growth. We give energy to more meaningful pursuits that align with our highest purpose and bring us closer to liberation.  Discouragement Discouragement is the shadow that insists our progress is not enough. It saps our energy, making the spiritual journey seem arduous and our own potential small. Facing our own inner critic is a challenge that invites us to cultivate resilience and trust in our capacity for spiritual growth. Each small step on the path is significant. To rebel against this critical inner voice is to gather strength and to remember that the journey itself, with all its challenges, is the transformation. Him I call a brahmana, who, like the moon (in a cloudless sky), is pure, clear and serene, and in whom craving for existence is extinct. --Buddha, The Dhammapada, Verse 413 References and Links Buddha (1986).The Dhammapada: Verses and Stories.

Well, several years ago it was our turn again for the cicadas to pay us a brief visit. You can't really complain; they only drop by every 17 years. What a life these critters have! They suck on a root in the ground for a while, they finally emerge, they climb a tree, they make a lot of noise for about three weeks, and they die. You talk about "get a life!" I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "When Life Feels Meaningless." Live a little while, make some noise, and then you're gone. Ecclesiastes 1, our word for today from the Word of God; the diary of one of the richest, most successful, most brilliant men who ever lived - the Jewish King Solomon. He opens his life's testimony with his bottom line on living. Here's what he says, "Meaningless, meaningless, utterly meaningless, everything is meaningless." Man alive! He says, "I haven't found meaning in anything I've done!" Then he goes on to say, "The eye has never enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing." So he says there's never enough! As he passed through his life cycle, here are some of the noises that Solomon made. He says in 1:17, "I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, but this too is chasing after the wind." Then he says, "I will test you with pleasure to find out what is good. But that also proved to be meaningless. I surveyed all that my hands had done and all that I have toiled to achieve," which, by the way, was pretty incredible. He said, "Everything was meaningless." And then finally, "Like the fool, the wise man too must die." After a life full of pleasure, achievement, relationships and learning, Solomon sums it all up in one word: meaningless! Like those cicadas, a short stay, make a little noise, and then you're gone. Solomon's search and Solomon's conclusion have been repeated over and over again in millions of lives...maybe yours. Maybe there's been activity but not much meaning. You've lived long enough to feel the hollowness of so many things that were supposed to make your life fulfilling. Nothing has really done it for you. You might be interested though, in the key that Solomon finally found in the meaning that had eluded him his whole colorful life - chapter 3, verse 11 of Ecclesiastes: "God has set eternity in the hearts of men." See, there's this eternity vacuum in us that can never be filled by anything or anyone that earth has to offer. We're not just 70-year cicadas going through a largely meaningless lifestyle for 70 years. We're built for eternity! In his final chapter he says things like, "Remember your Creator." Now he's looking for meaning in the only direction it can possibly come from - the One who gave us our life in the first place. The Bible actually says, speaking of Jesus Christ, "You were created by Him and for Him." You can't find your purpose until you find the One you were made by and made for, and that's Jesus. That's why He can make this exciting promise in John 10:10, "I have come that they might have life and have it to the full." All the life you were made for is in Jesus Christ. But for you to have life, it cost Jesus His life. The next verse says, "I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep." It's no mistake Jesus refers to us as sheep. We've wandered away from God, like sheep, the Bible says. It's called sin. The penalty is death. But Jesus, God's own Son, paid that penalty on the cross for you and me. Your last meaningless day is the day you reach out to the author of your life; the day you tell Jesus you are putting all of your trust in Him. And this could be that day. That's why I want to invite you to visit our website. Because right there I will lay out for you in simple and non-religious language how you can be sure you have begun the relationship that begins life the way it was meant to be. Our website - ANewStory.com. Will you go there? One day it was very quiet in our yard again. That short, seemingly meaningless life of the cicadas was over. You were made for so much more than that. You were made for eternity, and that begins the moment that you begin with Jesus.

It's Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel is at Kennesaw State University where he's talking with students about faith, evolution, and the human condition. Segment 1: • A future dentist, Nick, wrestles with the complexity of human anatomy—too intricate to be accidental? • Todd challenges the evolutionary perspective, arguing that microevolution doesn't explain the leap to full-functioning systems—evidence of intelligent design. • Nick concedes that a creator may have "set the ingredients," but stops short of committing to full belief. Segment 2: • Todd presents the moral argument—every human has broken God's law and faces judgment. • The courtroom analogy: good deeds can't erase guilt, but Christ's sacrifice can fully satisfy divine justice. • Nick agrees it sounds logical but hesitates to call it absolute truth, raising the question of objectivity. Segment 3: • Sociology student Jordan acknowledges the surge in suicide rates, citing academic pressure and societal expectations. • Todd argues that postmodernism and evolutionary thinking have stripped young people of meaning, leaving them lost. • Jordan admits many in her generation feel directionless, questioning, "What's the point of life?" Segment 4: • Todd presents the Gospel as the final answer to life's biggest questions—purpose, morality, and eternity. • Jordan, though religious, realizes she hasn't fully considered if she truly believes in salvation through Christ. • The urgency—this isn't just theology; it's a decision that determines eternity. ___ Thanks for listening!
