Apparently I @‘ed someone and posted the third finger emoji instead of the second pointer finger emoji at them in a work thread…and didn’t know about it for half a day….

After you watch Sound of Freedom, also watch The Whistleblower about the UN and girl trafficking (downplayed by the media 14 years ago).

The Whistleblower - Wikipedia

Been saying this to myself for 10 years..still forget it. “Begin each day by telling yourself: Today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness – all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good or evil. But for my part I have long perceived the nature of good and its nobility, the nature of evil and its meanness, and also the nature of the culprit himself, who is my brother (not in the physical sense, but as a fellow creature similarly endowed with reason and a share of the divine); therefore none of those things can injure me, for nobody can implicate me in what is degrading. Neither can I be angry with my brother or fall foul of him; for he and I were born to work together, like a man’s two hands, feet or eyelids, or the upper and lower rows of his teeth. To obstruct each other is against Nature’s law – and what is irritation or aversion but a form of obstruction.” ― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

I saw “Cocaine Bear” and now I can only think about someone dumping cocaine from a plane —and my bear eating it. ;(

An old swim coach used to say “Put it (the BS you are facing) in the water”….don’t hear that much these days. When you get BS dumped on you, moving it physically-helps. Swim it out, run it out, paddle it out or even sit it out and touch grass (or pull a weed)
