Hope clouds observation.

If there is no enemy, one must be invented. The military force which is denied an external target always turns against its own people.

The sins of this universe would trouble anyone.

the entire majesty of legacy media is nothing compared to a single woman who loves herself

I found this at my table at MagicCon Vegas. I need this amazing Magic community to help me find its owner! #magicconvegas

Power bases are very dangerous because they attract people who are truly insane, people who seek power only for the sake of power.

Coachella is trying to wipe all of the footage of The Strokes protest set so I’m gonna post it here. The last images on the screen made me cry.

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means? ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

Picard management tip: Get your own damn work done. Others will follow suit.

Thank goodness I don't have saved drafts. Some of my thoughts are really not worth sharing. Wonder what it's like to save your shitposts to see later.. I'm not gonna do it, but ya kno..

I don't know who needs to hear this right now, but a reminder that Trent Reznor spelled backwards is Ron Zertnert

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly: - Box breathing (in for 4, hold for 4, out for 4, hold for 4, repeat) - Immerse your face in cold water (activates mammalian dive reflex) - Humming (stimulates vagus nerve) - Exercise (anything helps, outside even better) - Impeachment and removal

I need more time so I don't feel tired all the time.

If you’re an American should watch the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown ep on Iran. A deeply humanizing look at a country full of people just like you and me. I watched it after Anthony died and it moved in ways that are hard to relay. I also immediately ran out to try kabob koobideh and tahdig.

Sad brain day, but not the desperately wanted cathartic kind. But at least staring at a simmering pot of curry reminds me that physics is cool. Thanks, thermodynamics.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility ❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️

It snowed for my birthday. This either means my karma is good, or I'm going to die before I get home. Either way, it was a pretty good day.

One of the biggest problems in my life is how good Cheez-its are

When I am weaker than you, I ask you for freedom because that is according to your principles; when I am stronger than you, I take away your freedom because that is according to my principles.

Anger is one thing, violence another.

I'm not really qualified to assess whether clinging sullenly to a child's book makes you a bad person, but I do think it makes you timid, incurious, and dull. It makes you someone who will sacrifice other people for a memory of comfort. It makes you untrustworthy and weak.

"separating the art from the artist" is an analytical tool. it arrests the impulse to try to read the artist's mind when you're interpreting their work. if you want an adage to keep in your pocket when you're making consumer choices, try "follow the money."

Really looking forward to the new version of the best wizarding school! Some say it’s the only one.

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the corruptible.

Trying really hard and being supportive of others has been good. But I'm just so full of sad.. Gonna keep doing my best, just having a hard time with why I'm doing it. *sigh..*

Arrakis could be an Eden if its rulers would look up from grubbing for spice!

Extremely useful devil spotting tips

I had the honor of painting the 2026 Commandfest Promo version of the Fyndhorn Elves card! I will be at Commandfest in Tacoma, WA in July if you want yours signed! :) (and tentatively one other location but I'm waiting for official confirmation).

The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill her—and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?

happy international women's day to all my international women

With all my best intentions, I try to go to sleep early on dst changeover. And every year, I end up awake past midnight...

I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…

HOW THE BLOODY HELL IS IT ONLY MONDAY

You do not take from this universe. It grants you what it will.

i went to the garden of forking paths and only in a specific set of possible futures did anyone know you

The only thing that's ethical to bully is a corporation.

"Urza created a robot with a truly human amount of father issues. His creation, Karn, later went on to create his own robot with father issues, and was enslaved by a whole species of robots with father issues. Tragically, none of them could build a dad robot, as fathers hadn't been invented yet."

I mean this is the most church counselor way of putting it, but intelligence by itself is nearly worthless. wisdom and prudence and discernment are necessary qualities for intelligence to be useful. innumerable religious scriptures have tried to explain this but yr tech bros aren't big on books
