Black and white image; woman with messy blonde hair, covering half her face has an open, completely black eye socket with 5 rivulets of black liquid crying down her face out of it, and a very sharp knife held up next to her face with more of the black liquid dripping down it.

~Christopher Morley

black and white image, a woman’s face, mouth open, screaming, looking mad as a hatter, her hair flying all around and partially obscuring the left side of her face so that only one frantic eye can be seen.

Democracy dies in silence.

…when people are too afraid or don’t care enough to speak up.

Not today.

MILLIONS of Americans and allies of freedom and democracy, here and around the world, are taking to the streets.

Showing their love of country and defiance of tyranny.

It’s a beautiful sight.

Prompt 131
Tides
Remembering
Circle

Her voice that recedes then returns
year over year
yet waning with each ebb
and flow, as though the
orbit of leaving
swings wider
toward the edge of the
solar system
and the sun that once
held her
has let her go,
flung out among the
stars

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

OpenAI’s strategy is very clear, it’s trying to get people - especially young people - so reliant on its products intellectually & emotionally (& now sexually!) that going without them becomes unthinkable. And they need signs of that strategy working to keep the funding flowing in

Today is #worldmentalhealthday and it’s really no secret that I struggle with anxiety and panic disorder and all that fun stuff. I think the human experience guarantees pain & suffering, and I think that the way we navigate that pain and suffering is…
