If you truly loved animals, u wouldn’t be contributing to their pain and suffering.
“I’m an animal lover but not vegan” is an oxymoron.
You might be a dog/cat lover but not an animal lover. Do better. -
Trying to restart the habit of writing has been hard. Not because of busyness or work or lack of inspiration…. I am just in a spiral of selecting a platform that would make it frictionless and easy for me.
I have been playing with:
- Write.as > what I used to use, fediverse support
- Pika.page > nice and fresh; great editor
- micro.blog > flexible but uber-clunky editor
- Bear blog > extreme minimalism -

Meeting participants deserve real choices, not just window dressing. Yes, it's scary. But we owe it to our clients.

That is the question of the New Frontier. That is the choice our nation must make — a choice that lies not merely between two men or two parties, but between the public interest and private comfort — between national greatness and national decline — between the fresh air of progress and the stale, dank atmosphere of “normalcy” — between determined dedication and creeping mediocrity.
All mankind waits upon our decision. A whole world looks to see what we will do. We cannot fail their trust, we cannot fail to try.John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) American politician, author, journalist, US President (1961–63)

We Americans want contradictory things from the health-care system; we want unlimited medical care without unlimited spending.... We want limits for society as a whole, but not for any of the individuals in it.... We remain hostage to our own optimism that all things are possible. But choices exist, and, even if we evade them, they will not evade us.
-- Robert J. Samuelson (Newsweek) -
Today's meetings need to give meeting-goers many options, not just a few. But not by filling the program with every conceivable session topic…

"No one threatened Russia and the only existential threat to it comes from the Kremlin’s own choices.
The Kremlin chose to invade Ukraine, and it can choose to end the war."

A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt
One’s philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes. In stopping to think through the meaning of what I have learned, there is much that I believe intensely, much I am unsure of. In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And, the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
You Learn by Living, Foreword (1960)More about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-eleanor/33…

The eternal debate, order a copy of Heated Rivalry Season One or read the book series. Either way, I'd get my requirement for gay content met. However, the allure for a spectacularly well shot show like Heated Rivalry...Is tempting.
I could always read the books later.
Hmm.
Edit: The Heated Rivalry DVD set is only available on Amazon, so maybe not. I have to think about this. As Amazon is a nasty force in the capitalist scene. The books are on Bookshop.org, and guilt free acquisitions.

“To say yes to one thing is to say no to something else.” Stephen R. Covey
Just because we can say yes doesn’t mean it’s the wisest, kindest or healthiest choice.
It’s ok to say no, especially ok when it’s saying yes to ourselves.

I suspect I'm about to over-commit myself. I'm currently in one choir and do some nature-related volunteering.
Planning on joining a second choir in the fall, but I also *really* want figure out how I want to be active in the climate crisis fight, and I was reminded today as well that I would really love to host a community-station radio show (which I haven't done since my 20s).
And yes I also have a full-time job.
So... yeah... will have to make some choices I think.

Why are slaughterhouses not celebrated? Because slaughterhouses reveal the truth most people would rather not face. Societies celebrate meals, traditions, and profits, but hide the violence required to produce them. If slaughter were morally comfortable, it would not need walls, euphemisms, and distance. Its concealment is part of the argument against it.
