Hag-afying as we speak

Decided to learn to crochet

You're doing so well! Keep it up!

Why’d you start with a circle?

It was the first step

And she never touched it again

Time to pick it back up

“The people who pay me to do a job tell me how they want that job done - this is the same as governments mass genociding dissidents and mass surveilling their homes and telling them they can’t be out after 9 or they’ll be shot 🙃 I am not a fucking idiot”.

I see the tankies have given up trying to deny the oppression of a communist system.

They used Peter from Office Space who could have simply left at any time. Half the shit he did that movie would have put him in prison or executed under a communist regime.

I really hope lots and lots of guilty people burn slowly over this

Omg those markings! 🤍🖤

I think Americans are a bit too comfortable believing that Buddhism is inherently a pacifist religion and that it bars us from doing any harm whatsoever. It’s a religion of compassion, not pacifism. Those things are not the same and you can’t use them interchangeably.

It is, at times, compassionate to kill. The difficult part of it is to do so without hatred or vengeance in your heart as you do it. When you are killing someone who has caused or intends to cause great harm, you are taking the karmic burden that they would’ve had unto yourself through the act of killing them. You have to find it deep within yourself to love that person, no matter what they have done or what they will do, so that you can take their negative karma from them so that their next incarnation might give them another shot at being a good person.

And your natural immediate first instinct is to think, “but they’re a horrible person! Why would I ever want to give up my good karma for this piece of shit?” That’s!!!! The point!!!! It’s tempting to want them to be reborn as a rat or a cockroach or other creature that tends to live a painful and miserable life. But if that happens, then no good is done. The person that they used to be remains evil, and an animal doesn’t have much potential to do enough genuine good to be reborn as a human. Do you really want that person to never change?

I know you're just going to tell me to fuck off again, because it's tumblr and nobody actually cares to teach anyone, but I have to ask what the point I missed was? I genuinely do not understand.
