Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

I wake up to the "Today" show, my hubs turns it on. Over the years I have watched it devolve into propaganda. A once cute little morning magazine show now stars Republicans whining about Dems shutting down a country with no rebuttal. Media is a sham, all bought and trying to sell us dictatorship. 🤢

How apropos, starting the humanistic theory of personality psychology soon. Even if his ideas were appropriated. 😔 #QuoteoftheDay

The "safest" place in the world is a prison cell.

The "safest" street is one lined with armed guards at every corner.

The "safest" communities are the ones surrounded by walls and watchtowers.

Authoritarian societies often feel safe.

But what is safety without freedom?

Talent isn't rare. Throw an apple & you hit someone with talent. Perseverance? rare. Work ethic? exceedingly rare; the willingness to grind. Being able to endure the scorn, rejection & privation a life in the arts dooms you to in the United States is unicorn-scarce. But talent? Talent is everywhere.
