No matter what happens, it saddens me deeply that rape, felonies, trying to overthrow our democracy, misogyny, racism and transphobia are somehow not deal breaks for 10’s of millions of Americans.

The basic orientation of our hearts needs to be altruistic. The peace of mind that results from this brings us physical comfort too. We have better health and sounder sleep, and we can make the best use of our inner resources.

The gaslighting continues… perhaps if the Gov spent any time in VA doing his actual job, he would realize that states decide vaccine mandates, not the CDC. All the CDC did yesterday was decide that poor kids can get vax’d - and if you’re against that, you’re just a bad person.

If you don't have all the facts yet, you shouldn't have a strong opinion yet.

Motivated reasoning is believing what you want to be true. Critical thinking depends on wanting to believe whatever ends up being true.

A key to learning is refusing to let your hopes bias your views.

Jamie Raskin on CBS: "Two of the hallmarks of a fascist political party are, one, they don't accept the results of elections that don't go their way, and two, they embrace political violence. And I think that's why President Biden was right to sound the alarm this week."

I know I’m a broken record on this, but @PeteButtigieg is consistently impressive.

@TJ_Cooney @RocketLab Hope they still have it. That group "awww" makes me a little nervous.

@Cathrinmachin Those colors are stunning. Amazing work!

If in 5 years #COVID is discovered to cause cancer like HPV, Multiple Sclerosis like EBV, liver failure like HepC, or acts like VZV chicken pox in form of adult shingles…I don’t want to hear one cry of terror from anyone who gleefully shouted while removing mask on the plane.
