"Coming out" as an old pedant.

Many hobbies: Amelioration through Vipassana to Zen

I like learning.

There is a belief that "nirvana" originally was used to mean "cool down" ... in a Goldie Lox & 3 bears kinda way.

A similar Thai term is "jai yen" - cool heart.

A cool heart ebbs and flows ... swirls in eddies, rages over rocks or runs deep, yes?

Hours from December, isn’t that crazy?

The first week of meteorological winter in Northern Hemisphere is marked by overheating continents. North America appears lonely with temperatures significantly below average in Northern Plains. (1/2)

Simple, huh?

Let see how it plays out because you are looking through the lens of the before times when there was some law.

It was announced that there would be killings. It has been made clear that there will be more killings.

I look forward to hearing reporting about the simple steps you take.
If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

How would "taking it more seriously" manifest into the world?

What if the goal is to nuke Tehran or get Japan to invade Taiwan or open resort hotels in Gaza ... pay that debt to Russia with Ukrainian blood.

IF YOU THINK the politicians are going to morph into servants of the people ... good luck!
Where are our Congressmen?

Hey Eric ... how's the ole' Bean Town, these days?

I spent my youth outside Boston; mostly Walpole. At one point we moved to East Walpole.

It took many years and about a million miles, but I ended up in Thailand.

Perhaps .. another aspect of the degradation of rational thought is the blasphemous claim the prices are down 500%, 600%, 700%.

This is ongoing fraud and deception .... in your face!

I feel confident that everyone would have been satisfied with a 100% price reduction.
Trump always telegraphs what he's going to do ahead of time. Note the phrase 'We should win the midterm elections if....'. This is the beginning of the groundwork for claiming fraud.

I have, from time to time, lamented that this kind of economic language makes sense to me. The most glaring impression that I am left with is ... all the words are not creating a rosy picture.

Once upon a time .. back in the day, while exploring the Twilight Zone, these questions were thrown into our group.

"Why do rich people need more and more money?

"Where does it all go?

Quite a conversation:

Aliens extort the planet.

Cabals collect the tribute.

Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

There is ONLY ONE religion. Everyone has the same religion.

Religion being, "That which a person holds to be MOST important."

Everyone does what they can to avoid their own personal pain.

Noticing the conversion of "American English" to "Orwellian Newspeak"??

Dept of Defense. (Changing the name requires Congress.)

So ... the Department of War is "Newspeak", right?

We can make up stuff, too, right?

Perhaps the most powerful food - Spirolina.

Another, "super food" Cacao (NOT Cocoa)

There is a: Moringa (Tree of Life in Bible) Most readily available as a tea, in leaf form and seeds.

I planted some seeds and now have 3 bonzi versions in play.

Leaves are great in soup and stir fry.
25:31 Jane's story certainly persuaded me, as a clinician, to now encourage anyone who has a significant, biological mood disorder, to focus on their diet.

WHAT have I been saying?! Bipolar: systemic neuroautoimmune. OCD, schizophrenia, ADHD: neuroautoimmunes. Reclass them! Get to the allergist.
I had this same experience! They thought germs must be caught on my adenoids because I kept "getting sick". There were so many other signs of autoimmune that all my doctors and mom ignored.

It was soy! Soy causes fever and flu symptoms in people with bipolar or who are schizoid. My kids get it too

Is it well understood that the term "yuh gut a problem wit dat? is another way of saying - Fuck you.

Fuck off and/or Go fuck yourself.
Yes we have a problem with it along with members of your own party.

Ahhh ... some of what I see, in this quote, is the value of liberty as an umbrella under which "individual freedom" can flourish.

A bone of contention with the dysfunctional "American" system is the hyping of "freedom" and the relegation of liberty, to the dust bin.

Liberty or Death - up to you!
"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.”
