Note from the Publisher
Dear TMG Reader:
As the Tiny Mind Gazette enters the second year of publication, we have rehydrated our commitment to the responsible aggregation of suitable content. As we collectively stand knee-deep in the mire of social intolerance, media manipulation, financial desecration, and the unfortunate decline in daytime television programming, we thought it might be a suitable time to focus on sunnier subject matter.
Today we are offering the first of a series of articles to be published under the subhead “Finding the Joy in a World Gone Sour.”
Our initial feature article focuses on once-promising career destinations now headed for obsolescence. Here is our list (in alphabetical order):
