Don't put up with bullshit, friend. From anyone. You're worth more than that. You work hard, your hustle is on fire, and you deserve to be rewarded for your effort. Don't accept less than the best.

Another thing, the bar for a sex pest is not whether they can give us good material! It's did they make honest redress for their harm, did they show remorse, do victims feel satisfied with their efforts to not be a sex pest. Not can they still perform.
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

Louis C.K.’s Next Chapter
In a new standup special, and a début novel, the comedian navigates murky, post-#MeToo terrain: not quite exiled, not quite welcomed back.

This time of year can be especially difficult for those of us who don't come from a loving and connected family of origin. Just remember that the word "family" encompasses a whole lot more than mom and dad. We can form our own loving bonds.

To be explicit, we executed a German U-Boat commander who said he had to sink lifesaving gear / “inadvertently” kill survivors because it might give away his position, thereby potentially resulting in the loss of his submarine.

We executed multiple members of that crew.
Heinz-Wilhelm Eck might have something to say about this one.

In a massive meeting of doctors… on the topic of the aging population and resource problems…

Yes.

One of them said we should consider not treating people with co-morbidities.

My friends.

I could not hold my tongue.

The Empress
#TarotSky
The Empress embodies our connection to spirituality, to Mother Nature, to love, and to nurturing. Hug your loved ones today, cast a spell under the light of the moon, hug a tree, dance in the woods. It doesn't have to make sense. It just has to feel good.

Happy Thanksgiving friends!
It's hard for you to see the good things right now. The holidays can definitely be hard. You're not alone in this regard. Be gentle with yourself. Do things that make you feel safe and comfortable. Joy and light will return.

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

Pediatricians say vaccines do not cause autism. A bear-eating heroin addict who fantasizes about sucking his own semen out of his lovers' orifices says they do. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

With Black Friday approaching, there will inevitably be well-intentioned talk that these deals are only possible because workers are denied a livable wage.

Don't buy into this. It's not low prices vs. fair pay. It's the demand for ever-higher profits and shareholder returns that forces deprivation.

Instinct leads us to repeat our old errors and cause ourselves and others strife.
But instinct is not fate, nor is it destiny. We can break these noxious cycles.

I can't speak for what was said at the protests, but seeing people react to an anodyne statement like "sacred spaces should not be used to promote activities in violation of international law" as if it were a vicious slur is clarifying.
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

Now is the time to pause, to step away from your normal scene, and sit still in a different environment. Don't rush things. Don't try to make disconnected things fit. Just sit and take in a new perspective. It may clarify things.
