All those scenes with abraxa happily talking about her world view and dispensing wholesome advice, then slowly realizing that she's saying scary or off-enough things that everyone around her is alienated, aggrieved, tired: idk man

The Republicans were sweating and starting to talk about like--permitting HSA reform. Is that why y'all caved? Because suddenly weird ideas entered the chat and that was frightening? Because you might have to react in the moment to new things? Like a teacher who asks no questions, who learns nothing
Advice shared by Robert Caro and Carl Rogers: silence and cognitive dissonance are the stew in which transformation is possible. If you open the oven door you stop the cook. If you change the subject you stop the subconscious, the insight. If you break the silence; if you cave on the vote.

We watched 32 Short Films About Glenn Gould. Thinking about how much better than scrolls/posts Glenn Gould calling friends and rambling so as to generate enough dopamine to wake up is as a categorical social imperative.

I will say it till I kick it myself, but among the things I heard most after Mira passed was ‘I wish I had told her’. give the flowers & start the friendships now
man, share the memories you have about your people now. don't wait; just, like make that a regular thing. tell them why they matter to you all the fucking time. and tell them beautifully, poetically, the way you would reminisce about them. because that beauty is important.

As a transgender ZZT-obsessed former sysop, I had to put A/S/L by @jeannethornton.bsky.social down after two chapters, get a cup of coffee, and literally just go walk into a forest. You're cutting deep, Jeanne. To the bone. Going to just stare at a tree for an hour.
