Solitude
Solitude paves the way for communication with our inner being. When we are in sync with our inner being everything becomes possible.

Protecting Yourself From Arrest for Miscarriage and Abortion
Why the Russians did it | The Weekly Sift
what clinches the case for me is not anything from Ukrainian or NATO sources, or from the western press. It’s an article called “What should Russia do with Ukraine?” by Russian political scientist Timofey Sergeytsev, published a week ago by the Russian state news agency RIA Novosti. (Alternate translation here.)
Sergeytsev is not a soldier, not in Ukraine, and as far as I know has killed no one. But he has documented, and state media has published, an argument that would justify (and perhaps even welcome) all the actions Russia has been accused of.
The article revolves around “de-Nazifiying” Ukraine, a phrase that has been the centerpiece of Russian war propaganda. To Sergeytsev, this term means much more than simply deposing the current “Nazi” government led by President Zelensky, a Jewish Ukrainian whose grandfather’s brothers were killed in the Holocaust. The deeper problem, you see, is that the Ukrainian people support Zelensky and don’t want to be dominated by Russia.
De-Nazifying is necessary when a significant part of the people – most likely, the majority – have been sucked into the Nazi regime politically. That is, when the “people are good – the government is bad” hypothesis no longer works.
In other words: the Ukrainian people are not just misled, they are bad and deserve to be punished.
[1] I hate that people like Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan have poisoned the phrase “just asking questions”. Questions should be asked, but as part of a process of seeking answers.
The problem with Carlson and Rogan isn’t that they’re asking questions, but that they’re not seeking answers. Instead, they ask questions simply to blow smoke and create paralyzing doubt. They imply that the questions they ask have no good answers, invent repressive forces that are trying to stop people from asking them, and cast themselves as brave rebels against those imagined forces.
I remember, early in Covid vaccination campaign, hearing Carlson do this same routine about vaccine safety. It took me less than a minute to google one of his “courageous” questions and discover that it had been asked and answered on the CDC web site. If Carlson didn’t want to accept the CDC’s answer, fine; but to pretend that the authorities had no answer and were trying to suppress the question was just dishonest.
My job- Meu trabalho
Meu trabalho exige. Como todo outro exige. Atenção e cuidado de sempre. A cada dia prendo mais. Aprendo a ser várias coisas ao mesmo tempo. Eu manobro meus sentimentos a todo tempo. As vezes ele extravasa sem que eu mereço ou perceba. Percebo que ainda tem coisas melhor, outras a anotar, outras a avaliar. A cada passo um sim, a cada sim uma escolha, cada não um novo chão… Eles ou elas me ensinam sem saber, me viram sem perceber. Trabalho e espero uma educação de qualidade. Coisas da SiL

My job
My job demands. As everyone else demands. Attention and care as always. Every day I take more. I learn to be several things at the same time. I manipulate my feelings all the time. Sometimes he spills out without me deserving or realizing it. I realize that there are still better things, others to note, others to evaluate…

Once the World Was Perfect, a Poem by Joy Harjo 🌎

Once the World Was Perfect
By Joy Harjo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once the world was perfect, and we were happy in that world.
Then we took it for granted.
Discontent began a small rumble in the earthly mind.
Then Doubt pushed through with its spiked head.
And once Doubt ruptured the web,
All manner of demon thoughts
Jumped through—
We destroyed the world we had been given
For inspiration, for life—
Each stone of jealousy, each stone
Of fear, greed, envy, and hatred, put out the light.
No one was without a stone in his or her hand.
There we were,
Right back where we had started.
We were bumping into each other
In the dark.
And now we had no place to live, since we didn’t know
How to live with each other.
Then one of the stumbling ones took pity on another
And shared a…

¿A DÓNDE?

Dime a dónde van
los que llegan
y dónde se quedan
los que están;
si el mundo
es un constante movimiento
donde nada es eterno
y los caminos son inciertos.

On Self-Care Tips
Some time ago, I wrote a post on how self-care is not selfish. I still believe that to be the case.
However, one major thing I’ve noticed is that some of the commonly offered tips are ones that some people cannot follow/carry out because of life circumstances. In other words, some (Many?) of the tips I see are not accessible to many, if not most, of us.
For example, here are a few common self-care tips and how they may not be practical for certain groups of people:
- Mental health days. Some self-care calls for mental health days, or days that people take off from certain things in order to care for themselves. A “mental health day” is something that many aren’t able to do because work schedules don’t allow for that.
- Bubble baths. Some self-care tips call for bubble baths in order to help relax oneself. However, some…
