Our sages were wise. “For transgressions between a person and God, Yom Kippur atones. But for transgressions between a person and another, Yom Kippur does not atone until one has appeased the other person.” www.instagram.com/reel/Ddhf0y5...

I'm noticing a trend in my own life, don't know if others see anything similar. It's about how we relate to tech. Im of an age where I had an Apple II, eventually the first Mac, always learned to troubleshoot PCs, etc. I was always the non-professional "tech person".

I know there are lot of people who think voting does nothing to stop fascism, but I do notice that one group who seems to think voting does something to stop fascism are the fascists, who are trying to prevent it as much as possible.

“Correcting a false belief is not like correcting a math error. It requires something closer to what clinicians call grief work. The person must let go of a version of reality that has been sustaining them…” That’s one doozy of an asymmetry! “Make stuff up” vs basically “extended complex therapy”?
