The Bible contains six admonishments to homosexuals and 362 admonishments to heterosexuals. That doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals. It's just that they need more supervision.

A quotation from Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
I once inhaled a pretty full dose of ether, with the determination to put on record, at the earliest moment of regaining consciousness, the thought I should find uppermost in my mind. The mighty music of the triumphal march into nothingness reverberated through my brain, and filled me with a sense of infinite possibilities, which made me an archangel for the moment. The veil of eternity was lifted. The one great truth which underlies all human experience, and is the key to all the mysteries that philosophy has sought in vain to solve, flashed upon me in a sudden revelation. Henceforth all was clear: a few words had lifted my intelligence to the level of the knowledge of the cherubim. As my natural condition returned, I remembered my resolution; and, staggering to my desk, I wrote, in ill-shaped straggling letters, the all-embracing truth still glimmering in my consciousness. The words were these (children may smile; the wise will ponder): “A strong smell of turpentine prevails throughout.”
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809-1894) American poet, essayist, scholar
Speech (1870-06-29), “Mechanism in Thought and Morals,” Phi Beta Kappa Society, Harvard University

"The practice of peace and reconciliation is one of the most vital and artistic of human actions." - Nhat Hanh.
If the number of atoms in the universe are as individual as humans attempt to be, there would be no cohesion, no matter would form, for even if the numbers attract one another, then it would be a simple blob of conformity, you see the chance of humans having true individuality, would prevent the growth of society, for each would have a voice unheard for another's ears could not comprehend what it hears, for all the variants that make up time and space, humans have simply failed the race, more alike than grains of sand, tear them down where they stand, to climb a hill with no top, humans gleefully jump right off, divisions come from freedom thoughts, but our souls have been bought;

“in #analytics, the #data in production is the data in people's heads, “#insight” is relative. It is dependent on what people already know. You can't tell people something surprising without knowing what is expected; you can't tell them something interesting unless you know what they think is boring. As my first-grade art teacher Ms. Hunt said, “#art is in the negative space.” Insight isn't the data; it is what's not in our heads.”

It was a sunny morning and the birds are chirping, but after another sleepless night of pain, the old man tore his stiff body out the unforgiving bed, as classical music played he stumbled to make his coffee, and as he stepped outside, he wondered why am I even awake today, no breath left within his chest, a body crippled by time, the beauty of the morning held no value in a life of desperation and pain, shuffling back inside to pour his coffee, he knew its just another day where hunger would loom in his belly, where pain and suffering would consume his day, shuffling to his chair he sits down without anyone to care, for alone in despair no one cares at all.

I agree with The Substack Post that a new #media order is emerging: "Many #publishers thriving on #Substack cut their teeth in #LegacyMedia, & they are carrying forward those values & #journalistic #standards. Others [are] from outside, bringing fresh #perspectives & #insight." https://tinyurl.com/bd3a4tyr

Can such technology be used on Mars from now on? #InSight would still be alive had it been equipped with such a dust shield.
"NASA’s Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) successfully demonstrated its ability to remove regolith, or lunar dust and dirt, from its various surfaces on the Moon during Firefly Aerospace’s Blue Ghost Mission 1, which concluded on March 16."

Solving our problems with material and technology is like covering up the weeds of the mind. It helps take the edge off and buys time.
Next is solving problems by calming and managing suffering and stress. It helps us get to a better mental space, quickly. This is like trimming the weeds.
Finally there is the practice of looking within, developing insight and improving our skill of seeing ourselves more clearly. This is uprooting the weeds once and for all.
