Setting aside the horror of the rendition of American citizens for a second, the man who is taking Plumpy Nut from starving children and anti-retrovirals from kids born with HIV lacks the insight to understand that he, too, is a 'homegrown criminal' and a murderer.

It was obvious then, as it is obvious now.

The Osho quote aligns with an understanding that helped me navigate significant bipolar elevation without harm: "power, properly understood, belongs to no one." My reading so far suggests #tantra is about oneness. A profound sense of the connection between everything is central to mania for me.

Just got one of Osho's books to learn more about #tantra and #tantric teachings. “Once revolutionaries are in power, they become anti-revolutionary. Power is antirevolutionary. Power creates its own world.” Rajneesh Movement history makes it clear how hard it is to escape power and corruption.

NEW from me in @thetyee.ca: When we’re talking about alleged corruption in the awarding of health-care contracts, it’s important not to forget that the root cause is privatization. thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

I am not feeling very happy right now but my chakras are purportedly fairly balanced and all open right now. (I do believe in chakras because I can feel both them and the energy that flows in and through them. But the test could be a crock for all I know.) www.eclecticenergies.com/chakras/chak...

Whenever we say "We need to do [task]" out loud, what we're really saying is "[Task] needs to fuck off."

April is half over and they still need to raise over 19k. Every bit helps.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

When you decide as a society that there are people in this world that you dont have to give a shit about, that you can do anything to, that you have othered to the point of inhumanity, you sign your OWN death warrant.

This is wild. Everyone gets paid the same. What a foreign idea

This happened in Canada, but watch your step in any language.

I know lots of people who are trying to clean up their digital footprint right now. Not me, if you can't tell, but a friend asked if there was a to automate it. Not really, but I made this, which checks ~400 sites to see if an account exists with a specific handle. I found things I forgot. (1/3)

This is a game-changer. It could even be used as an alternative intervention to help with chronic fatigue borne in genetic conditions, down the road. Wow. #sicklecell

Um... We have a problem

Canadians, among others, shouldn’t go to America any more. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

There is "I am the messiah" bipolar grandiosity, but there are other options: angels, saints, buddhas, or bodhisattvas. Superheroes, stars, planets, galaxies and forces of nature... I will not speak of the options in a malevolent direction. I am not in that space but am discussing with headmates.

I almost missed that Passover has started. Thanks, Google. Happy Passover!

Words that convey actual meaning for when you want to be lazy and type "bipolar" about your weather... Erratic Fickle Mercurial Changeable Volatile Unpredictable Variable Moody Shifty Vacillating Untrustworthy Temperamental Uncertain Undivinable Binary Hot-and-cold Transitory Transitive Shifting

I will read this as subtle disobedience.

Having a significant "who cares the carer" moment. Thankful for our plural system, but damn.

Incredible how spineless and unprincipled the GOP is.

I didn’t know this policy had progressed as far as it did. Women, they’re removing married women’s right to vote 👇🏾

Trump will think bigger number = good.

I really hope normal-brained politicians will think about how they critique mainstream media outlets. The Globe and Mail is not above criticism, and politicians should not be afraid to push back when they feel there are false premises, but choose language that doesn't undermine trust in media.

Oh wow. I didn’t think this had gone through. #GhostsInTheMachine

Congratulations to my beloved sister!
