  • Having the ability to lie and manipulate with no remorse will get you much further in this world than having morals and being correct

  • One doesn't do the right thing to be rewarded or to 'get ahead'. One does the right thing because it's the right thing to do. Selfishness only leads to insecurity and loneliness.

    Share your wisdom (?). Have lots of knowledge but "my bones" crave and cry out for true wisdom

    Jump

  • It doesn't help that our culture - especially internet culture - loooooooves self-deprecating 'humor'. We even put ourselves down for putting ourselves down! I've had a lot of success with trying to focus more on my triumphs than my failures. It's all about the language I use with myself, I've found. When I have a victory (even a small one), I say "Good job! You nailed it!". When I fail, I say "Well, that sucked....but you'll get it next time. Keep trying!". Most of us don't have our own personal cheerleaders, so we have to become our own. :)

  • Emulate honorable people instead of popular people.

    Never use 'telling the truth' as an excuse to speak without thought or compassion.

    You are 100% responsible for what you say and what you do. Own your shit.

    If someone is trying, but struggling - encourage them. If someone is struggling, but not really trying - encourage them.

    Don't waste your time trying to 'be a leader' or climb any corporate ladders. Just do your job and be kind, generous, truthful and compassionate. What is meant for you will be for you.

    Read. A lot. From actual books. As many as you can get your hands on.

    Stop putting yourself down. Seriously, it's not fucking helping you. AT ALL.

  • What is something you believed was normal or true as a kid, but later found out it was not?

    Jump

  • Cooties.

  • It used to be just weird Christians, but now everyone's pretty much on board with burning Harry Potter books.

    Jump

  • When you reveal yourself to be a bigoted, hateful person, most evolved and compassionate people tend to dislike you.

  • What's your LEAST favorite song

    Jump

  • 'Christmas Shoes'. Google it.

  • Which actor/actress are you unable to dissociate from one of his/her role?

    Jump

  • I will stay my Hammer of Vengeance just this once.....and agree that he is a very accomplished and talented actor.....who just happens to be Gandalf, not Ian McKellan. ;)

  • Which actor/actress are you unable to dissociate from one of his/her role?

    Jump

  • While he did a decent job with Magneto, I would say that his Gandalf is far more recognized.

  • Which actor/actress are you unable to dissociate from one of his/her role?

    Jump

  • True, but I would argue that none are as widely recognized as Gandalf.

  • If every minority group came together under the same banner they would be the majority, and rights would be much easier to attain for everyone.

    Jump

  • Why do you think the fascists try so hard to keep them divided and fighting each other?

  • What's something you saw a co-worker do and were shocked that they weren't fired for it?

    Jump

  • Screaming into my boss' face during a heated and un-warranted argument that my co-worker initiated. In all honesty, my boss was in the right in this particular instance. Co-worker never did apologize, to my knowledge. All I can say is my boss has a lot of patience...

  • Which actor/actress are you unable to dissociate from one of his/her role?

  • Ian McKellan is Gandalf, and I will fight anyone to the death who disagrees.

    Cudahy vice mayor allegedly calls on gang members to stand up against immigration raids

    Jump

  • Exactly. Not encouraging violence, encouraging ACTIVISM. I fucking love it!

    Jump

  • Read what she said. She's not telling anyone to get violent. She's saying they should be joining the peaceful resistance movement. But of course, the ones we're peacefully resisting are going to spin it as encouraging violence - while they kidnap, assault and abuse innocent civilians.

    Why do so many women write fantasy novels?

    Jump

  • I don't have a problem with women writing fantasy books. I just wish the fantasy market wasn't glutted with 'romantasy' novels. I really, really dislike those.

  • Socialism is the actual teaching of Jesus

    Jump

  • Christianity is incredibly easy to fake. Anyone can call themselves a Christian with little, if any, blowback. It's the whole 'sinner saved by grace' schtick - which is, essentially, "Yup, I'm a Christian but I don't really have to act like one."

  • What are some Mastodon accounts you follow and recommend?

    Jump

  • Mostly just that I value their opinions on current events, and I admire their work. :)
