  1. After developing the ability to watch thoughts and feelings from a mental distance, an even greater freedom is to detach from the subjective feeling of a watcher (which is also impermanent). The result is ungrounded experience, where there is knowing but no knower.

  3. Four Hundred Words for Six Hundred Dollars

    The announcement arrived through LJExpress on a Friday in late July, dressed in the language of service. Media Source, the company that owns Library Journal, School Library Journal, The Horn Book, and the Junior Library Guild, had opened a storefront called Open Shelf Reviews, aimed at independent authors and small presses, and the copy asked me to hold two ideas at once: the reviews would be paid for by the authors under review, and a wall would keep those purchased reviews away from the magazines whose names give the wall its worth. The company described the operation as "a clearly identified paid service," with its own editor, reviewer pool, and website, all kept apart from the editorial processes that made Library Journal matter to librarians for a century and a half.

  5. A quotation from The Bible

    When a sieve is shaken, the refuse appears;
       so does a person’s waste when he speaks.
    The kiln tests the potter’s vessels,
       and the test of a person is in his conversation.
    Its fruit discloses the cultivation of a tree;
       so does speech the thoughts of the human mind.
    Do not praise anyone before he speaks,
       for this is the way people are tested.
       
    [Ἐν σείσματι κοσκίνου διαμένει κοπρία,
       οὕτως σκύβαλα ἀνθρώπου ἐν λογισμῷ αὐτοῦ.
    σκεύη κεραμέως δοκιμάζει κάμινος,
       καὶ πειρασμὸς ἀνθρώπου ἐν διαλογισμῷ αὐτοῦ.
    γεώργιον ξύλου ἐκφαίνει ὁ καρπὸς αὐτοῦ,
       οὕτως λόγος ἐνθυμήματος καρδίας ἀνθρώπου.
    πρὸ λογισμοῦ μὴ ἐπαινέσῃς ἄνδρα·
       οὗτος γὰρ πειρασμὸς ἀνθρώπων]

    The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)
    Book 22b. Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 27: 4ff (Sir 27:4–7) [tr. NRSV (2021 ed.)]

    Clarification: he comes up in one take with an original drums section — not knowing what the drums sound like on the record.

    The preview image is misleading.

No, with all due respect to the #families of Rudakubana's #victims & their #feelings, which are perfectly understandable, if Rudakubana is suffering from some form of #cognitive #psychosis, then transfer to a secure #psychiatric #hospital is appropriate - irrespective of the ill-informed & prejudiced views of the national chair of the Prison Officers' Association.

  12. This is why regular prayer/meditation/quiet time is necessary. To get clarity and adjust the heart/mind to handle the overwhelm.

  13. Over time, I've realized that a primary goal in my art is to not only feel seen myself but also for others to feel seen as well. I want my works to hit people in a way that gives them pause and makes them wonder how someone knew such an intimate detail about them and their feelings. This goal is very much still a work in progress, but I am enjoying the journey and the process of experimentation and expression.
