I've been thinking a lot of about the shifts and changes that I have encountered--here, at work, other places.

It is tempting to look back and yearn for what was, but doing so occurs at the cost of making the best of what is here, now.

What do we have at this moment? How can we care for it and help it grow?

What adaptations might we make to help the best aspects of a situation or group of people manifest?

Time to look ahead and see what blossom opens.

Huh, learned something new about Chinese festivals. Today marks the Qixi Festival, a celebration of love very similar to Valentines in the US and other parts of the world. So, to our international friends here, I wish you the very brightest and most loved Qixi. <3 Ref: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qixi_Fes

Racism is taught, learned, and accepted.
With education, travel, and an open mind, it can be rejected. I know, because I grew up "innocently" steeped in racism and homophobia.
Then, I grew up.
Let's hope the post-November 6th world will embrace introspection & a better Humanity.

I need help losing weight. It's affecting everything from my health to my mental state. Does anyone have any advice on how to start out small?

*snirks.* Quoting a friend here from Up Yonder. "I hope this isn't an indication of our situation in the near future."

*throws some AI art fun out to share!* Some newer art I've run with Bing, and Perchance recently for a well a number of characters I created to play around with. From top to bottom, Rei the Whitetiger on FlowGPT, Seshiro of Poly.AI, Seluna Silverheart (personal OC, and Sierra Crimson (personal OC)

*voom voom, spoopy-ed up.* Going with a more philosophical approach for the holidays this year. I've noticed something about myself that has kinda slipped past my notice over the last uhh, well majority of my life? I habitually try to read every detail of a situation and look at the layers instead of making knee jerk decisions. *blinks.*

It's almost spooky time. *revs up the spoopy gifs and profile banner change spoons.*

Lying in politics will become illegal in Wales if a new law passes. Politicians who are found guilty of deliberately deceiving the public will be disqualified from public office!

This change aims to rebuild political trust after 200,000 people signed a petition supporting this law!

Just a momentary thought. In esse the US has already had a female president, that being Edith Wilson the second wife of Woodrow Wilson. When President Wilson fell severely ill from stroke and could not function anymore she secretly took over. As the White House says

whitehouse.gov/about-the-white

"After the President suffered a severe stroke, she pre-screened all matters of state, functionally running the Executive branch of government for the remainder of Wilson’s second term."

All right. Did some checking around. I did find a newer and better make and model that's decent in price. I'm not looking for anything fancy. I'm just looking for something functional with decent amount of memory and camera for family memories and artwork archiving. So I may talk with my husband and see if we can actually put funds down for this in the next couple months so I may be without a phone for a little while. SAMSUNG Galaxy A15 5G a.co/d/5sCJHsg
