Why Sympathy Often Goes Toward the Accused Instead of the Accuser 1. Cognitive Dissonance When the Accused Is Powerful or Familiar If the accused is: * famous *admired *politically aligned *part of someone’s “in-group”

The silence is deafening.

So pleased with the project so far... 11 days until we begin the installation 🤞🤞🤞 #crochetsky #yarnsky #artsky @arbor.gallery

The at home assassination of a state lawmaker should be getting a bigger reaction from the President than someone throwing a rock at a Tesla dealership.

Happy 250th Birthday to OUR Army. These are the kinds of memories I’ll always cherish, celebrating the cutting of the Army’s birthday cake together with the youngest soldier in the unit. Celebrating true service, our values and the legacy of our force. This is who & what our army is!

Hits a little different atm. @thebandcake.bsky.social #fridaythe13th #nowacceptingphonecalls

Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

Everything that is wrong with the GOP can be explained in these 4 charts The principles of Abuse The failures of racism The Special Snowflake chart The Virtue/Abuse Quadrant chart redloraine.wixsite.com/website/post...

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

My thought is this.... if (some) people believe everything told to them by a f b reel or a post on exx, then how does one harness that power for good?

Yams' age definitely starting to show. Only two runs to catch the frisbee and she was ready for cool grass and a beverage. 🐶❤️ #dogsky #yamsky

I started weekly therapy sessions 4 years ago this summer. It's felt like it's taking forever at times... but also feels like it hasn't been but a minute. I still have a long way to go. Looking for thoughts on EMDR?

Happy 77th birthday to Kate Pierson, one of the lead singer and founding member of the B-52s The B52s - Planet Claire FULL HQ Restored #punk #punkrock #newwave #katepierson #theb52s #history #otd

Here is a white bison I made in Procreate for #blueskyartshow #Earth I have a bit of Tewa in me, but not enough to call this indigenous art. I’d call it #indigenous fan art.

When you get to hang out at the art gallery on a Friday night... just because. #arborgallery #artsky #craftsky @rainbowfright.bsky.social @arborgallery.bsky.social

Happy Easter on this beautiful 4/20 #fourtwenty

By far my favorite OK Go vid - and that's saying something because I could pretty much watch their entire vid catalogue on repeat for days. So much better than, well, just about everything. Enjoy. #okgo #music #welldone

If you have ever wondered how the leaders of America’s most powerful institutions would react if a despot sought to seize power in the US and strip away our most basic freedoms while destroying our economy, national security and institutions…now you know. They’ll roll over and play dead.

Keep your focus on the journey Not just the destination - Fortune Cookie

I want to help more and support more and do more while also knowing much much less about all of the ways things are definitely more terrible than they were yesterday and much much worse than they were all of the days before that. Time for a booster shot.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

As the daughter of a proud Marine... there you have it.

Perspective is fun.

Thank you, @jeffjacksonnc.bsky.social

Okay... lol'ed

Morning coffee and @michaelpollan.bsky.social Good start to the day.

"In 1787, I'm told, our founding fathers did agree... And they put those principles down on paper and called it the Constitution, and it's been helping us run our country ever since then. The first part of the Constitution is called the preamble and tells what those founding fathers set out to do."

1977 Still gets stuck in my head.
