“You can’t say there shouldn’t be poisonous serpents—that’s the way life is. But in the field of action, if you see a poisonous serpent about to bite somebody, you kill it. That’s not saying no to the serpent. That’s saying no to that situation.” Joseph Campbell

Manning is GOAT (or maybe second behind Brady). I still love him. Belichick not so much.

“Delusion is a divine curse that makes someone envious, conceited, malicious, so that he doesn't know the evil he does will strike him back. If he could see his nothingness and his deadly, festering wound, pain would arise from looking within, and that pain would save him.” -Rumi

This is an Estonian pattern from The Haapsalu Shawl using laceweight alpaca yarn from Valley Yarn. It’s a prayer shawl (in progress). Am I being selfish, making a shawl that inspires me? Should I make warmer, sturdier shawl that the recipient will get more use out of?

The long list of failures has reached a point where he felt a strong need to divert the attention of the public away from them. A sociopath historically chooses to start a war when he senses he is losing the public's trust. Stupid people cheer for wars.

From the Revolutionary War through US history, men & women have died in service to our country. They didn't face the horrors of war to make rich people richer, or spread hunger and poverty. They did it for what democracy promises. Let's honor them this #MemorialDay by fighting for the same cause.

In Flanders Fields By John McCrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.
