I had a post written to your "I don't see color" post, but deleted it.
I think of that line the same way I think of people telling me "I don't see you as gay". It's insulting, because the unspoken following line is "I see you as normal" It diminishes who I am, and minimizes my experiences. Telling someone you don't see the trait that's been a significant factor in how they live is dismissive and condescending.

@zhivi
Thank you for posting.
I think it's important to know what the world looks like through other eyes, but it almost feels like eavesdropping, sometimes, so I tend to keep my thoughts to myself.

@zhivi
I did, although this is the only one I responded to, because it specifically invited comment.

Flower of the very showy California guava, growing at public access garden at STEM in Mission Bay, San Francisco 04.22. If you go to an event at Chase Center, a half block south on Terry Francois brings you to the staircase & a bit further south to the ramp up to their wonderful vegetable and fruit garden. A pure joy in the city. #JanuaryJoy, #flowers, #Bayarea, #GardeningMastodon

Sometimes it doesn't work out. Tried to do an E-girl Velma, with piercings and tattoos, but I couldn't make it work. So posting this one, to let it go and move on.

Our culture constantly pushes the lie that your value as a human being comes from what you do or produce or offer to others.

That's garbage.

You matter no matter what.

You are sacred just for being.

Shabbat Shalom.

@ScottSoCal thanks. One of my fave meals ... and vegan too!

Eggplant, chickpea, onion, and tomato bake/stew? It's a lebanese dish...

There is one person I'd like to have been better to, in high school. No one was decent, and I wasn't worse than any of the rest, but I should have known better. I should have done better. I try to do better now.

I think we've all done things in our "youth" we wish we hadn't. I know in my early military career I did some spectacularly craptastic stuff I wouldn't mind taking back but don't carry guilt over them, I just vowed to do better.

One thing I still regret, despite being forgiven years later by the soldier involved, was my failure to stand up to the powers that be and be strong in the moment.

#BigQuestionOfTheDay: Do you feel guilt about something you did/didn't do or just live in the moment?

Next week I will be interviewing Universeodon Admin @supernovae on the God Pod and I couldn’t be more excited! If you have anything you want me to ask him, let Me know!

I don't do much in oils - never liked the smell 🎨
