What do we mean by "ideology?"
Depends on whom you ask, but a common approach in political science basically says that an "ideology" is just what happens when people decide that a number of different policies "naturally" go together.

I ate a little bit of cannabis candy last night, 1st time partaking since 1987, so being cautious.
Greatly mitigated my neuropathy and I formed a mystical relationship with sudoku. I could maintain enough concentration to read, too. All good. Will increase portion size tonight.

Yesterday we visited Green Mountain Falls, CO to visit the kinetic sculpture Off the Beaten Path by Patrick Shearn. I wasn’t ready for just how dynamic it was even in the slightest breeze. Reminds me of a murmuration of starlings. Incredible artwork. It’ll only be up through October 19th.
