In news that will get very little coverage, Mariska Hargitay's "End the Backlog Campaign" achieves rape kit reform in ALL 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico. It's women who are going to save us. Thank you Mariska Hargitay.

The government shouldn’t have the ability to control your car in anyway shape or form

Ngl, $1,000 starting to feel like $100

Dogs who bite children get more severe punishments then grown men who rape children. We are living in a dystopia.

Can we start a movement to end the use of credit scores? I paid my credit cards off & my score dropped by over 200 points. Which means I have no debt but because my credit score is in the toilet I can’t qualify for anything. Credit scores are a joke. Oh & one of the credit cards I paid off kept increasing their interest rate. When I paid it off the interest rate was 44%. That should be ILLEGAL. Why is America so dang backwards??

the humiliation ritual of having to be nice to a creepy man because you don’t want him to kill you

Went to get gas and groceries and set some ugly records. Highest price I’ve ever paid for gas - $5.89/gallon Highest grocery bill I’ve ever had - $369.28 I just spent $475 to get gas and groceries. Can’t be sustainable for 90% of people.

Peopłe are becoming way too comfortable about being horrible human beings

I apologize if I do not reach out anymore. My life is falling apart. I’m sad almost every time, fighting for my life every day, second guessing my career path, tired from a job I don’t like, confused, and sleeping whenever I get free time just to escape reality.

You know what really bugs me these days? We can't own anything anymore. Everything is a subscription. Adobe, Notion, Spotify. You don't just buy things once, you keep paying every month. You literally have to pay for everything forever. Isn't anyone else bothered by this?

I've reached a place in my life where I've stopped trying to be interesting. Cool. Smart. Whatever. Stopped collecting experiences to talk about. Stopped reading things to sound smart. Stopped having opinions I don't actually have. Stopped pretending to care about things I don't care about. It took years to get here. Because the world says be interesting. Be fun. Be loud. Be someone people want around. So you perform. Until one day you're sitting somewhere surrounded by people and you feel completely, utterly hollow. Because none of it was you. And something inside finally whispers: enough. You stop performing. You slow down. You become more present. More honest. More still. You say less. But what you say is real. And you realize the most interesting people aren’t trying to be interesting. They don't give a shit. They’re just fully, unapologetically themselves.

Crazy that 70-80 year olds are generally seen as unemployable due to physical and mental decline. But we’re allowing them to run our entire country.

anyone else go through a life-altering event that made you realize you don’t give af about work anymore lol

For more than 70 years, British broadcaster and naturalist, Sir David Attenborough has brought nature to our screens. At 100, he reflects on one unforgettable moment - coming face to face with mountain gorillas in Rwanda. Here’s that encounter from 1979.

What is so wrong with resume gaps? Are people not allowed to not work???

I like how people on twitter express my thoughts and all I have to do is just repost. Thank you😭

达赖喇嘛曾调侃，在冥想中，一天二十四小时里，自己可能经历七次死亡与重生。在将身体与意识分离的过程中，人可以进入一种“最深之上”的明光境界。在他看来，藏传佛教不仅是一种信仰，更是一套关于心性的训练方法与技术——一种用来调伏和提升自心的路径，因此在促进人类福祉方面具有独特的潜力。 达赖喇嘛始终视自己为一名普通僧人。自幼受戒以来，他的日常生活中包含数小时的祈祷与冥想。尽管修行方式多样，他尤其推荐“分析性禅修”。在这种修行中，人们需要对不同来源的经验与信息展开观照，并借助理性加以分析与理解。通过这样的过程，个体得以培养出善意、慈悲与宽容。

He’s dead on.
