The gift of truth excels all gifts.
Shakyamuni Buddha
You’re welcome.
There is nothing the karma-challenged hate more than empathy and wokeness. The Pali/Sanskrit word “Buddha” does not mean “enlightened”, as most suppose, but “awakened”. “Empathy”, from Greek, and “compassion” from Latin, both mean “suffering with”. All of these are facets of unselfishness, or no-self in Buddhism.
YMMV. Shalom, salaam, namaste, etc.
Tibetan koan
And vote.
So hop to it. That includes strenuous goodness, and deep rest.
Every day is a good day./日日是好日。
Chinese koan
x Get this: in Pennsylvania, 69.2% of young voters are returning their ballots for Democrats. Exactly two years ago, that number was 51.9%. This is what happens when you have a party that delivers for young people and a party that seeks to destroy our lives. cc: @tbonier — Victor Shi (@Victorshi2020) November 1, 2022
You’re welcome.

https://t.me/ministry_of_de x ⚡️ Tsikhanouskaya: Sending Belarusian troops to Ukraine would mean 'political suicide' for Lukashenko.
If dictator Alexander Lukashenko gives the Belarusian forces an order to attack Ukraine, they won't fight, said leader of the Belarus opposition Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya. — The Kyiv Independent (@KyivIndependent) November 3, 2022
The Environment
The people of the UK beat another head of lettuce:
x There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change.
There is no energy security without investing in renewables.
That is why I will attend @COP27P next week: to deliver on Glasgow's legacy of building a secure and sustainable future. — Rishi Sunak (@RishiSunak) November 2, 2022
We need government, business, and NGO commitments of $60 trillion over the next decade to get us to 80% renewables and EVs. That $60 terabucks of PROFITABLE investments, with a payback in real money, real lives, and the real planet in six years.
Even run-government-like-a-business Wrong-Wingers would easily understand that if they weren’t just dog-whistling, lying hypocrites. We shamed some of their leaders, the Never-Trumpers, and we can shame those in their base who want to be actual Christians and actual conservatives.
x We need a loss and damage finance facility. We need climate justice. We need action.
Time is running out, which is why decision makers need to step up at #COP27 #GenerateAction ⏰ @CYPavilion pic.twitter.com/51lITtBnFA — Greta Thunberg (@GretaThunberg) October 31, 2022
