October 19, 2023: It is truly sad to see so much wanton violence occurring throughout the globe. Instead of waging war, the various nations of the world should practice genuine diplomacy and wage peace! Endeavor to win hearts and minds with food & medicine, not with bombs & bullets. Violence only begets more violence. We are no longer in the brutal 20th Century. We should have learned from its many hard lessons as we move further ahead into the 21st Century. #WagePeace 💙🌍💚

Juneteenth, Summer Solstice and UnmitigatedJoy
As a kid, yoga brought me healing from the “toxic stress” of an abusive childhood home. As a dancer I had already found tremendous joy in my art but something about the rabid competition in the entertainment world led me to seek solace in yoga, not as a replacement for dance, but as a…

every single character in the dragon prince loves with their entire heart. they love so much it bring them to their knees. so much that they're willing to die for love. so much they're willing to live for love. love between partners, love between friends, love between siblings, the love of parent and child, the love between worshipper and their god, the love we as people have for the world around us. the entire world is really held together by love.

re: your post about jin guangshan: i think examining him in the way you've described really highlights the absolute horrors of the gentry in the mdzs world. because to examine WHY he is the way he is highlights a society that has absolutely no interest in reigning in the desires of its nobility. jin guangshan is the end point of that, and wen ruohan is as well; the difference is that they exercise this in different ways. jin guangshan attacks the vulnerable largely on an individual and interpersonal basis, using and discarding individual people; wen ruohan attacks the vulnerable largely on a more collective basis, conquering sects and families. they both want power, they just have different methods of obtaining it. and the other members of nobility have very few methods through which they can curb this behavior, outside of an all out war!
jin guangshan and wen ruohan must have been children, once; i doubt they ever experienced any kind of deprivation or guidance and the environments of jinlintai and nightless city's upper nobility likely only exacerbated that. i don't think it's a coincidence that the characters who likely grew up with the most power and privilege, and who exercised this in the most destructive ways, are killed by the guy who arguably experienced the Least power and privilege in his early life!!!! of course jgy would be the one to kill them both!!!!!
bam 🙌 nail, head, you just absolutely hammered the shit out of it.
i want to print this out and frame it. edited to add: because you know who does rein in those desires once he comes to power?

Good afternoon. Today we learned that Hamas murdered a 74-year-old woman, Vivian Silver. She was a peace activist who co-founded Women Wage Peace, a coalition of Jewish and Arab women seeking an end to Mideast violence.
If you're Jewish, Hamas wants you dead. They don't want peace. They don't want to help Palestinians. And when you repeat their propaganda, you're saying you don't want peace either.
May Vivian's memory be a blessing.

There are people on Instagram's book reading community demanding creators don't show books by Russian authors and telling everyone to throw such books away ... ...like ??? How do their brains work? Why are western people sooo sure of their political correctness and shove it down aggressively down others' throats? Everyone can decide on their own what they want to do or not. It is always the western people policing and bullying everyone.
Also, ma'am, when are you throwing away all your American and British literature? Lemme know when please.
