My work/life (Buddhism) is heavily interested with and occupied by breathing. While Gertrude Stein does complicate the breath, I find her comma-less sentences also an insight into Buddhist practice:

Absolutely! I SO admire your work!

We love a bold bitch calling out the emotional equivocation of punctuation marks. Every question mark is a coward. Every comma is that ex who had to parent their parents and then felt they had to parent you and therefore left from exhaustion. Punctuation signifies humanity’s weaknesses.

Two nights of 3:45am alarms, blazing full moon lighting the sky like daytime and washing out the light of everything else, comet included. Then two days of post-processing battles, as comet processing is maddeningly tricky.

But I finally pulled it off: here is C/2025 A6 Lemmon. 🔭

Not to mention these parents are usually under resourced and perhaps undiagnosed themselves, and so their children’s autism diagnosis completely takes over the lives they’d hoped to have. So much of this is about the trauma of parents who have had to give up their visions for their own lives…

lol, fellow Montanan here, and Bells Hells are your rando friends from the bar: old guy, gay jock, punk left behind after their friends jumped the train, hot topic lesbian, that sweet girl who is actually a scam artist, nepo baby with guitar, army vet turned therapist, and horse girl…

Thank you for being with her until the very end. ❤️‍🩹

The only way this article is acceptable to me is if Andrew also encourages cast iron pans as handy weapons when the Fash come for us.

A gentle reminder: the moon is very full, and very close. Perhaps choose tender patience today, for yourself and for everyone. Trust that release will come.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Yes I know! I live there! They are ruining the lives of folks who voted for them

It’s so wild that the population of the section of Montana affected most ($40 million lost) is small enough where this could ruin lives for generations… there is some rural catastrophe happening on this map.

It’s likely that this happened to them, in which case, again, this should be much bigger news. We can’t just disappear thousands of people without notifying anyone

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.
