Today is a good day to read Black anarchist Lorenzo Komboa Ervin's reflections on how those who maintain and benefit from white supremacy have done their best to co-opt the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

I know we live in a world that needs love but lives in hate, fear, sadness & pain. I know there's people who need more empathy, sympathy, peace & respect. But freedom isn't the root cause of the problem. We need BOTH freedom & peace for all, not bullies that violate our right !

The problem in general with social media community guidelines is that most are disorganized, complicated, patronizing & vague. It doesn't have an educated, understanding of problematic / toxic anti-social behavior. It violates human rights by having no balence. #savetheinternet #netneutrality

The family mausoleum of Robert William Kennard at Kensal Green Cemetery. One of my favourites, as the door reminds me of the Tardis. Taken October 2018. #TombTuesday
i luvs a good buddy of bodhi, which I keep locked in my closest closet. obviously not everyone is smart enough to not be a Buddhist (including me) RIP Sunday, halo moon-day 
Manjushri is the bodhisattva of wisdom and insight, penetrating into the fundamental emptiness, universal sameness, and true nature of all things. Manjushri … sees into the essence of each phenomenal event. This essential nature is that not a thing has any fixed existence separate in itself, independent from the whole world around it. The work of wisdom is to see through the illusory self-other dichotomy, our imagined estrangement from our world. Studying the self in this light, Manjushri’s flashing awareness realizes the deeper, vast quality of self, liberated from all our commonly unquestioned, fabricated characteristics.
… Manjushri cuts through our conventional conceptions of and attachments to abiding, increase and decrease, ordinary and holy, nirvana and samsara, arising and ceasing, aspiring, and grasping. Experiencing personally and clearly the perfection of wisdom that Manjushri expounds is about seeing through, and being liberated from, all limited views about these common snares of consciousness. (Bodhisattva Archetypes, p. 93 & 116)

Some people are so creative and original. That is what I love about social media the most. Original content creation that isn't deliberately pandering for likes. In that vain here ya go. 🙃😂😋
