Dr. Now is a treasure. I love how he tells the truth: measured, blunt, yet compassionate. I certainly admire him. He doesn’t get angry when his patients fail. He is a beautiful example of mastering compassionate-detachment and respecting a patients right to self-determination.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

@aoc.bsky.social I just came across this article on a technology subreddit. www.vcinfodocs.com/venture-capi... Can anyone who sees this please tell me- is this what we are up against?

It is a breath of fresh air to hear people debate important issues with logic and decorum.

Putting pressure on someone to make a decision, especially before having essential facts, is nothing more than a high pressure sales tactic. Don’t buy it.

This is about preserving your mental clarity. It does not mean we do nothing. It means, we are the ones in control of our minds and emotions.

Trump and Elon would like you to believe that pausing for a moment is weakness. However, when we respond, instead of react, we make better decisions. They would love to have us all frazzled and strung out. Take a deep breathe. Look around you. We’re going to need calm and logic. That is an asset.

Resistance looks like protecting your mind from psychological warfare. It is resting when you need to. It’s saying, “I’m not doing that.” Instead: invest your energy in shoring up your mental defenses. Set limits on screen time in your home. Let the opposition exhaust their drug fueled mania.
