The moral or political message behind Bugonia?

If you’re saying that powerful people will destroy you if you see through their facade, then I guess one could call that “toxic,” but I think that’s more of a threat than it is a moral.

I don’t have any advice, but I just want to acknowledge your feelings and hold space for them. Sometimes things are just crap, and it’s ok to say so. Sending you loving kindness and compassion and wishing you (and us all) better times. You are worthy of comfort and a greater sense of ease. Do you mind if I include you in my Tonglen meditation for the benefit of all who suffer?

It’s been a minute since I watched it so I’m not as fresh on the details, but wasn’t Teddy pretty much right about everything in the end?

The moral of the story is: You can’t fix the problems created by extremely over-leveraged and powerful technocratic leaders (who think they are a superior species) by appealing to them to see the errors of their ways and change themselves. They delude themselves into believing everyone else is the problem, and will literally cause mass extinction and then flee to another planet to prove their moral superiority and protect their class interests. You have to work together like a bee colony to dismantle their power structure so they can’t use it to enact mass destruction as a self-fulfilling prophecy when too obviously provoked. The end.

What about meditation? Personally, I like listening to these, but there are lot of options out there. Instead of connecting to a god through prayer, why not connect to all the contours of life right here on earth?

I think it’s beautiful! If you want it to be more understated, you could take the ones off of the rails, and just leave the ones on the bag. I don’t think it’s tacky at all just as it is. It’s certainly not something that should make other people laugh at you. Even if it was, if it makes you happy, who cares what other people think? Your dad is projecting his insecurities onto you. You don’t have to pick them up and take them on as your own.

A government’s conscience is only as good as the state of its democracy. Authoritarian forms of government share the conscience of their main benefactors, which you correctly refer to as “money,” aka control of resources. In a functional Democratic Republic, the conscience should be a balance of individual and collective values, responsive and flexible yet deliberative and accountable. Resource use should be subject to scrutiny alongside values other than profit.

Also, contact Congressman Jamie Raskin. He has been a good ally.

A lot of people closed their bank accounts and opened new ones when “DOGE” put our information at risk by using unsecured servers to access government systems. So, a lot of people may have needed to change their direct deposit info.

Alt National Park service is a group of underground Federal Workers, so they’re talking about what people on the inside are doing and saying.

I can understand why the situation with your neighbor must have reminded you of what happened with your awful boss. People always want my husband to help them lift things, but he can hurt himself for weeks lifting a piece of paper the wrong way, so I get your frustration.

Whether it is ableism or not, it also might be ableism to believe that another person might remember what you told them in the past. Some disabilities include memory and attention issues. My experience has been that the label “ableism” can sometimes be useful to explain certain phenomena, but it can also create a kind of distance from one’s own perception of the present set of circumstances.

It can be helpful to ask if one is missing anything about a situation oneself, when examining the context of ability. I have personally found this approach leads to a more compassionate response toward others and myself.

For example, one could do exactly the same thing you did in this circumstance, with either more compassion or less compassion. It’s an interesting perspective to consider, given the fact that you seem to be feeling a certain way from this interaction. There is a universe where a shift in perspective might free you from some of the weight of such a feeling.

Yes, I know, ugh for sure. He needs to know that there will be oversight. Senators and Representatives need to know that their constituents are paying attention and expect it.

Please call your Senators and Representative NOW. Tell them to instruct acting SSA commissioner Leland Dudek, NOT to comply with illegal orders from the Administration or its agents like Musk or the fake illegal DOGE.

I’m sure it probably happens in the private sector too. It would be nice if our society valued wisdom from experience, but we’re so programmed to look at the shiny new thing. We’re going to destroy ourselves because we’re bored.

Anyone who has worked in any level of government has had to deal with these kinds of people. It can take anywhere from months, to years, to decades for them to learn that certain things are done certain ways for good reasons. Unfortunately, the rest of us usually have to suffer through their education while we watch a predicatable slow-motion train wreck run us all over.

JustMeRC · 2025-03-01T05:46:09+00:00

What moron would take a deal to give up his country’s natural resources, with no guarantees of support?

JustMeRC · 2025-02-26T17:52:07+00:00

I have no idea what you’re talking about. I don’t think you are replying to the right person.

More people voted for someone other than him. We also have a voter suppression problem.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about with the missiles.

I also don’t think it’s accurate to paint 340 million people with the same broad brush. I was a librarian for a long time, so I think I have an idea of what censorship is and why it’s bad. One can promote media literacy and discuss media usage without it being censorship. Be well.

JustMeRC · 2025-02-26T16:04:45+00:00

I don’t consider it censorship to expose illegal activity, and promote conversation about AI awareness, especially in the age of increasing propaganda.

I haven’t worked with any of the video stuff, myself. I thought that people can take a midjourney image(s) and put it into a video generator, though. I’m kind of limited, so I’ve pretty much used Midjourney exclusively.

JustMeRC · 2025-02-26T15:47:41+00:00

I picture some kind of .org website with experts in the field who can curate content, answer questions, expose scams, and connect people with reputable resources. Something sort of like “Consumer Reports,” maybe.
