Taking a beat to sigh.

Someone here put words to how this day always makes me feel: haunted by what came next.

Humanity has always been brutal, but there's an extra brutality that comes from realizing your so-called "civilization" is as susceptible to war derangement as any other, & from noticing how many people around you *will* dehumanize others in a Jingoist flash.

Once you realize what's under the skin of people who think themselves decent, life is never the same.

Be well today, all. 🕊️

@MLClark I have found that some of the most annoying of cliches are the ones so true they've been repeated to the point of becoming memes.

I am reminded of the story of the Two wolves. Which one wins? The one you feed.

At the end of the day no one is wholly good or evil. They are their choices at that moment. Enough choices over a historical period establish a trend, but we are the sum of our deeds, and that needle is ever in motion.
