As for going outside today....
so many dreadful aches and pains / didn't make up / get hopes up for tomorrow.

Kinda long, but...
I read all of these stories. Can imagine living in a place called "Surprise"!

Anyways...
It's great to know the world has Vaseline and some people in Alaska are drinking coffee after surviving a massive earthquake.
Some people
They are technically grown-ups but they have teeny enraged little children inside and they really really have to express that...
Teeny children! You deserve better!
Were you around older people who acted like they had the right to be abusive & then thought they could escape from any consequences for their choices by talking about how great their abusiveness is for much bigger and nobler reasons...
Like wouldn't this seem funny on one's deathbed.

Deeetails
My lower lip which has been constantly splitting and splitting open all week is dripping in coconut oil.
What if I have to stop eating.
Calm down. Maybe you just need some Vaseline.
I got a free designer chapstick but...

"This is what I am gonna do for you."
I have the headache of death but I will survive.

Must have been a carryover from another life.
Me in my friend's apartment, her daughter, her saying she needed to pick up the toys...
I used to live in upstate NY, and it was cold in the winter. Most of my life before age eight was in that area.

Having a healthy state of mind is an asset in a critical situation.
Better to seek professional help.
Because if you are going around being abusive & or being overly tolerant of bullying just because you got bullied when you were younger and creating unnecessarily toxic environments that is not cool.

"From boasting about the size of his penis on national television to releasing records of his high testosterone levels, President Trump’s rhetoric and behavior exude machismo. His behavior also seems to have struck a chord with some male voters."

Way way way unqualified for his job shows where his moral compass is oriented and how money will win even if in this case, there are 50+ girls/women and a police department convinced (most of the time, it ain't like that!)

many men in this country grew up with a dehumanizing vision of women. Unfortunately, some took it to the extreme because the culture permitted it.

Thoughts on Secretary of Labor
1) I feel sick (but that's not unusual these days?)
2) "It showed that someone with money can buy his way out of anything" - Bradley Edwards
3) "Acosta has never provided an explanation for why he and prosecutors kept the case secret from the victims and their parents."

I must check out Kate Manne...
"The feminist philosopher Kate Manne coined the term 'himpathy' to describe the 'tendency to dismiss the female perspective altogether, to empathize with the powerful man over his less powerful alleged female victim.' What Kavanaugh did today was activate the Republican Party’s powerful sense of himpathy: His suffering was the question, and Ford’s suffering, to say nothing of any further search for the truth, slipped soundlessly beneath the water."

"We show that the mortality rates comparing First Nations peoples to that of the Canadian average are consistently higher in all age groups. Starting in the early teenage years, however, there’s a spike in First Nations female mortality that persists until age 45. The rates approach 400 percent of the average Canadian mortality rate for females and 300 percent for males across these age groups."

"While white South Africans only made up 10 percent of the country’s population at the end of apartheid, they owned nearly 90 percent of the land. In the quarter-century since the act's repeal, land distribution remains a point of inequality in the country.

“'[Trump] has no interest in uniting the country, really, and actually has an interest in doing the opposite and dividing us, which he does on an almost daily basis,' Springsteen told Esquire magazine. ' So that’s simply a crime against humanity, as far as I’m concerned. It’s an awful, awful message to send out into the world if you’re in that job and in that position. It’s just an ugly, awful message.'
He added, 'It’s a scary moment for any conscientious American, I think.'"

A young woman I've helped recently has told me that she volunteers at a hospital asking patients / sick people if they need anything. She has such a great presence. I told her if I am ever in a hospital, I hope I could be on her ward! (I know that it can be a challenge to be hospitalized...The nurses, while good at their jobs, are often very busy with a lot of patients...)
And I still don't?
This reminds me there was a time I felt like I should read this book and I didn't know whyyy
You never know what is going to seem significant.

A dream from years ago
"It's a collective thing."
MLK said this in a dream I had a while back.
I sincerely hope many people who have been suffering can learn to take better care of themselves and help others transition into better places where they may assist humanity.

"It hurts my brain and my heart." ~ guy in the video.
Well, at least being aware of the heart is a step and might make him figure out how to treat himself and other people better but I don't know.
Our society must evolve on issues of healing and mental and emotional health.
I am an empathetic person and as a human I can feel joy and pain. I wish the good souls in this world who were abused children had better access to help when they were growing up. I really do.
It is a big world with many, many people. Adults who take responsibility for their lives can learn how to heal themselves and not pass on abusive patterns.
I am not directing any children I know into the tutelage of a person who creates unhealthy conditions, outright lies about things and gaslights women in the process.
People deserve better.
Even though I am sure she is a good person in many ways, I do not trust this woman's judgement enough to recommend any children or young people I know be mentored by her.
I do not trust this man's judgment either. It is tragic. It does not make me happy.
Posing with children for photographs and acting like a blankety-blank savior is not nearly the best the universe can provide.
The old-fashioned masculine domineering stuff is what some people still want or tolerate, and in both men and women they tolerate it, but I believe there are better ways out in the universe and here on earth to exist.
The world got more bizarre this year.

Well, at least being aware of the heart is a step and might make him figure out how to treat himself and other people better but I don't know.

Moments of gratitude exist on Earth
Thank you, John Guillebaud & Dr. Imogen Shaw.
"John Guillebaud, professor of reproductive health at University College London, revealed this week that research shows period pain can be as 'bad as having a heart attack'. He said: 'Men don’t get it and it hasn’t been given the centrality it should have. I do believe it’s something that should be taken care of, like anything else in medicine.'”

https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/period-pain-is-officially-as-bad-as-a-heart-attack-so-why-have-doctors-ignored-it-the-answer-is-a6883831.html
"Dr Imogen Shaw, a GP specialising in women’s healthcare, welcomed his comments, saying: 'I wouldn’t say [period pain] has been hugely investigated,' and when asked if the issue would be taken more seriously if men experienced it, said: 'I suspect there would be, being very cynical.'”

A more hopeful quote:
"In the film, Daisy’s brother Charlie, feels deeply betrayed that it was his teammate who assaulted his sister. Parents, teachers and other trusted adults can start unpacking twisted gender messages from a very young age whenever the opportunity arises. Charlie did that with his little league team when he started coaching baseball:
'I don’t think I ever thought about teaching them greater life lessons until I heard a couple boys making comments about a girl. And I said, all right, we’re having a powwow now, and I circled everybody up. And I was like, here’s the thing guys, I’m here to teach you baseball. But this isn’t the kind of stuff I accept. This isn’t what I’m about. If it’s what you’re about, that’s fine, but that’s not what we are going to be about. And you’re more than welcome to take yourself out of here. After that one incident something clicked...'

"This 16-day period had particular significance for Heyzer’s Canadian audience, for one of Canada’s most horrific tragedies occurred on December 6, 1989, when Marc Lepine went on a shooting spree at Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal. Lepine had entered the college with a shotgun and murdered 14 female engineering students before turning the gun on himself in what later became known as the 'Montreal Massacre.' In his suicide note, Lepine declared his murdering spree to be an attack against feminism."
https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/international-day-to-eliminate-violence-against-women
And while of course it is not the same as a shooting spree, it might be a reminder that bad working conditions for women are pretty horrible, too...
This is pathetic and disgusting (predator zone).
Also a reminder that it sad when a person with questionable judgement has too many enablers because of money and automatic status assigned to him because of his background. Different rules / easy to abuse privilege.
And in the process attract a gross abusive cult following.
Mental illness and wealth are an interesting combination.

"OTTAWA, Nov. 25, 2018 /CNW/ - The Minister of Indigenous Services, Jane Philpott, and the Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations, Carolyn Bennett, issued the following statement today on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women:
'Ending violence against Indigenous women and girls is one of the most urgent issues Canada faces today. We can and must do better.'
On this day we honour all missing and murdered Indigenous women, and stand in solidarity with their families who continue to grieve their loss and fight for justice.
Indigenous women and girls are three times more likely to report being a victim of a violent crime, and are disproportionately affected by gender-based violence due to poverty, intergenerational trauma, and the unacceptable socio-economic gaps that create barriers to access quality health care, education, and other vital services.
Today, we re-affirm our unwavering commitment to preventing gender-based violence and providing support for survivors. The Government of Canada has invested nearly $200 million to implement the first-ever federal Strategy to Prevent and Address Gender-Based Violence. This important strategy lays the foundation for increased efforts around prevention, support for survivors and their families, and the promotion of responsive legal and justice systems. Developed in the spirit of reconciliation, this strategy identifies a range of actions that must be taken to address violence against Indigenous women and girls.
International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women is an important global reminder that this is the most widespread and devastating human rights violation in our world today. Gender-based violence should never be tolerated. We must continue to take action to end the impunity, silence and stigma surrounding it.'"

Why leave? Because...
Some people have gross selfish coping mechanisms. They seem to treat life like a giant disgusting fraternity party. It's not just men who do this, either.
An attempt with words
A person in a female body is worth more than what society says. Society props up certain people for really dicey reasons...Both women and men do this, and it is painful on all levels. It is a real drag and a downer and it is part of what makes the levels of inequality in the physical realm so sickening, and abuses of power so rampant. It feels really wrong.
In this life, I have experienced pain which is particularly feminine. At times I have been unpleasantly acquainted with ways people who never got healing can be destructive to others. For instance, I used to have a song that I felt was part of my healing. In many ways, it got ruined because people who were irresponsible in their actions...unfortunately I now know more about petty cruelty than I used to, and wish I did not. That is not what I want in my life.

That's right you can do it, even though a bunch of grown women told you from early childhood that you needed to put boys and men first 'cause 'its in the Bible.'"
"To counteract this cycle of low information, self-doubt, and isolation, Payne says that, based on her conversations with moderate white women voters in red communities, it is hugely impactful for them to find solidarity in one another. She knows of a secret women’s society in Texas in this vein, and points to a group of women who connected in traditionally conservative suburban Georgia...'I needed to learn to advocate for myself,' the woman told Payne, 'before I could stand with others.' In the LMRC’s long-red district, the Georgia 6th, Democrat Lucy McBath just flipped the House seat."

"I asked Payne why white women in prickly, patriarchal districts don’t just secretly cast blue ballots. Anecdotally, she says she’d been told that some do, while others plan to vote Democrat (and even tell pollsters as much) but at the final hour they fold. 'These women aren’t talking to one another about what feels wrong,' Payne says. 'Their perception is that they’re alone and it reinforces thinking ‘I’m wrong.’”

Breathe...this is what happens...
You may be immersed in circumstances others do not really perceive but you are going to survive, learn, grow, change, be happy...

The body has wailing sadness
In its back muscles
While the face continues as if all is normal
Maybe there are points in the face that can be massaged as well

Are the aliens and their superior technologies gonna help with the Martian medical clinic as WWIII rages on Earth?
And and and
1) How are the people that wanna go to Mars going to do this: run a decent medical clinic, including counseling services and good prenatal and post partum care?
2) Even if zero women go there (gotta stay at home on Earth to take care of babies! Even though WWIII is gonna happen on Earth! ) there will probably be a need for some kind of mental wellness check for whoever ends up going up there.
3) Also, this really is not a good way to relax a person.
