In the waning days after big tragedies or what should be momentous events that lead to anticlimactic, I’m reminded of something. Humanity repeats its history, never quite mustering learned wisdom. Moments like these I know for sure that I’d hate the repetition of immortality. #wisdom #humanity

That dream began in 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina when the Wright Brothers were the first to achieve powered flight. It took us just under 66 years to go from human-powered flight to putting humans on the Moon. We should work toward great dreams, not violent hatred. #positivity #future #flight

In days like this, after seismic moments in history, we need to be reminded of the good we can do as humans when we work together instead of dividing ourselves. This is your reminder that we were hip deep in the Vietnam War when we came together as a country and completed the circuit on a dream.

I will stand Jews, LGBTQ+, and any other marginalized community, including the Black community, legal migrants, and basically anyone this administration wants gone. If I get hate, that’s the price of doing the right thing. #NoH8 #positivity #doinggood

I’ve seen the news over the last 18 months or so of the world getting antisemitic. This needs to stop. People are scared and for good reason. You’d think we have stopped most of this kind of hate in 1945. #stophate #JewishAlly #RepeatingHistory

Art, creative writing, and music are the ventilation systems to the soul. We create so we can stay human in a toxic world. #art #music #writing #creativity

What’s the best name for a superhero that’s naturally pretty good at everything? Currently his name is ‘Paragon’ but ‘Didact’ maybe more fitting. Except that’s a Halo character.

Any thoughts?

Andy @dockofthe831.bsky.social · Dec 7

I don’t know how else to say this, so I’m just gonna say it outright:

If you feel the need to burn mosques or synagogues and not churches, you’re not a Christian. You’re not even an empathetic human. You cannot build anything of worth by destroying or breaking something down. Especially a people.
