A quotation from Bierce, Ambrose
EDIBLE, adj. Good to eat, and wholesome to digest, as a worm to a toad, a toad to a snake, a snake to a pig, a pig to a man, and a man to a worm.
Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
âEdible,â The Cynicâs Word Book (1906)

Unwell, took leave, finished reading it. But from tomorrow, tryst with capitalists will make me age faster.
If you have brains, ull realise, dealing with bunch of idiots for money, and repenting to be an idiot in weekends is capitalism.
A quotation from Pratchett, Terry
If there was anything that depressed him more than his own cynicism, it was that quite often it still wasnât as cynical as real life.
Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) English author
Guards! Guards! (1989)

May be 95% of all humans I know are under acute stress. Once I started ignoring them, my life became peaceful.

" #Hertan is the #proto-Scandinavian #word for #Heart and that is what we explore in this song and film.
The duality of the heart with the rhythm, flow and pulse we can see, hear and feel in #nature and in all forms #of #life â and the more abstract idea of the heart, The rudder on the ship of emotions, our decisions, and our true desires."

A Democratic state senator needs an #abortion. She told her colleagues about #Arizonaâs âcruelâ #laws.
The only reason I had to hear those things was a cruel and uninformed attempt by outside forces to shame and coerce and frighten me into making a different decision other than the one I knew was right for me. Thereâs no one-size-fits-all script for people seeking abortion care, and the #legislature doesnât have any right to assign one.
