Nah, but seriously—anything at all helps and is much appreciated. Even a smidgen of money. Even, e.g., ¢ 0.3 ($ 0.03 USD)!

I mentioned specifically Japanese forms of #Zen, but I'll note Zen in Japan is ultimately the #Japanese expression of the #Chinese #Chán school of #Mahāyāna #Buddhism, and Chán is known as #Seon /Sŏn in Korea and #Thiền in Vietnam. (Thiền is also the first form of Buddhism I directly studied!)

#Labels we apply to ourselves—terms of self-identification—are often, if not 𝘪𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘭𝘺, to varying degrees, 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, yet they're also informative—yet malleable—and so also 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦 freeing—𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, in their own ways. This applies as much to #socio-political #ideologies as spiritual ones...

Now "rediscovering" #Buddhism years since putting Buddhist studies mostly "on pause" to delve into #Thelema: I'd been so enraptured by #Zen especially—some years ago—but, having come back, and now, for the first time, into #Dzogchen and #Nyingthig, I see #Nuit–Hadit in #Samantabhadri–Samantabhadra!

It's just wrong because egoism is not prescriptive but descriptive. Stirner does not tell the reader what they ought to do or arbitrarily decides for them what is and is not rational. He actually mocks people for assuming themselves rational. This rests upon assuming Stirner is just Ayn Rand

Can't stop chuckling to myself thinking of the—tongue-in-cheek—phrase "𝗴𝗮𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶'𝗮𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗬𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀" since I read it in a YouTube #comment earlier today.

(What's crazy is that there are people who basically think that that's what #Mamdani is somehow genuinely about, though.)

Quentin Tarantino has been on a meth binge for the past two weeks. Don't pay attention to his BS. He's probably been jacking it for the last 14 hours straight to pics of Shrek's feet. Are you going to take such a person seriously?

Over on the Facebook, you can bet that whether it's ICE brutalizing immigrant toddlers, or the US military mass-murdering civilians in international waters, every person cheering it on makes sure that you know they are a "Christian" in their profile. Every. Single. One.

For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.

Is it any wonder so many feel abandoned by the system?

People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void. This is why we must fix the system.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.

Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

It's unbelievable how corrupt the Supreme Court is. It's insane that we are letting them get away with it. They are taking away all of our rights.

New in PN: A war criminal without a war

"We’re watching the flimsy justifications fall apart in real time. They can try to shift the blame. They can try to say that people clinging to wreckage for dear life are somehow an active threat. But in the end, it’s just murder."

He's now crediting himself with ending wars that never happened!

"The fact that we could do that, in India, Pakistan, so many different wars that we were able to end, in some cases, a little bit before they started, just right before they started … but we got them done," he said.
