One collision and the whale is dead.

This practice calms fear, self-pity and shame. We are all connected.
Loving-kindness meditation isn’t just personal self-care. It also benefits society, a scholar of mindfulness explains. It supports democracy by helping people work with strangers and opponents, not just those they agree with.
What loving-kindness meditation is and how to practice it in the new year
The practice of this meditation often involves quietly reciting to oneself several phrases that evoke and visualize the beings who will receive loving-kindness.

You are ABSOLUTELY NOT going to regret listening to this bird:
A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.
Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.
A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

DHS publicly fantasizing about massive state violence should be taken seriously, and warrants labels such as fascist and white supremacist. But don't lose sight of the fact that it's beyond their capabilities.
The regime's desire for authoritarian repression is bottomless. Its capacity isn't close.

They want to wipe out almost a third of the country. It’s got nothing to do with illegal immigration.
It’s white nationalism pure and simple. They’re fascists, and there’s no reason to doubt it.
