May all beings be happy
All beings without exception
Weak or strong, omitting none
Great or mighty, seen & unseen
Near & far
Born or yet unborn
May all beings be happy
Let no one deceive another
Or despise anyone anywhere
Or in anger wish another harm
May all beings be happy

Actually, it does work like that now. The US Congress could pass a resolution giving Trump a Nobel Prize, the White House would host a formal ceremony, and within months it would become “true” for half of the country that Trump had won a Nobel Prize.

Rep. Buddy Carter: "Donald Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. That's why I'm introducing a resolution today that will honor him with the Nobel Peace Prize."

(It doesn't work like that lol)

Plant cathedral
https://botfrens.com/collections/69/contents/20056

"Plant Cathedral" by Remedios Varo depicts a surreal, mystical scene where towering tree-like arches form an ethereal forest. The artwork features a figure inside a whimsical, carriage-like structure, evoking themes of exploration and cosmic journey within a fantastical, haunting landscape.

"You got a good voice. You’re nice to me, we'll work something out, get you a contract with Verve, hm?” Bo's hand wandered down the girl’s back.
“Get your paws of that girl, you pervert!” Ella Fitzgerald had a good voice, too,and loud.
That’s how Bo lost HIS contract.

Got get help, talk to professionals.

But if a course of 10 online CBT sessions won't fix you or 6 in person counselling sessions or SSRI or Antipsychotics then tough luck.

You need DBT or any specialist therapy, then you don't get it unless you can pay for it.

Being Irish and of a certain vintage, I ended up almost departing this mortal coil before looking for the help I so desperately needed. Don't be like me, be more like Sean.

For World Mental Health Day, I wanted to share a bit of my journey.

Two years ago, I came off anti-depressants. Things were going well for me and I was in a better position to deal with life's challenges. Over the last half-year in particular, my situation has changed.

I made an appointment 1/5

So true. I don't know how I would have made it through my darkest days without poetry. Rational words couldn't express my experience; #poetry could.

October 10 is World Mental Health Day and World Homeless Day, highlighting how mental health and housing are deeply intertwined.

This year’s theme, “Access to services: mental health in catastrophes and emergencies” reminds us that mental health care can’t wait until things are calm.

ICE official testifies that DHS “prematurely” sent Abrego Garcia a notice that he would be removed to Ghana.

Just this morning, Ghana’s foreign minister wrote on X that the country had “directly and unambiguously conveyed to US authorities” that Abrego cannot be deported there.

Ghana is not accepting Abrego Garcia.
He cannot be deported to Ghana.
This has been directly and unambiguously conveyed to US authorities.
In my interactions with US officials, I made clear that our understanding to accept a limited number of non-criminal West Africans, purely on the grounds of African solidarity and humanitarian principles would not be expanded.
Ghana strongly objects to these misleading media reports.

This is SO good.

Next time you've got a couple hours, watch this... it's all about what I'm trying to do with my storytelling.

I especially like her point about how these stories EXIST but we have been trained to ignore/minimize them.

Embracing new ways of telling story is one place to start.
