treating people as people

it seems to me that it does disservice to us all
to label people mentally ill, or with diagnoses
of mental illnesses. This distances people who
most need connection.
What are we really talking about? What are
these targeting symptoms we see and point out?
How might people be better understood and
improved in these areas we call abnormal if we
just found appropriate reactions to their oddnesses,
and treated people as people, each with
our own issues to work through or live with?

;

maybe we, the people, need to form our own
paramilitary to surround, taunt, record, and
generally make their jobs impossible for these thugs

;

POTUS can’t be prosecuted federally for acts
that can be construed as part of his duties
I don’t think that means he can’t be civilly sued,
by everyone he harms in any way, for billions
of dollars
thoughts?

;

I have been saying for as long as I can
remember that using/counting on guns
for defense is not the sense you may think –
it is more likely to cause you harm than protection

;

The world, not the Earth, the human
world, is insane. As far as I am aware,
it has always been so. People say
they care, then disappear.
Especially cruel when they’re still here.
People stand as if enthralled while the
cruelest acts unfold like absurdist
theater, before their souls.
How manage this sordid parade of
petty tragedies that they be made
a cause?
How escape those unwritten laws,
those everyday chains, those
directives to blame, those less than
we need to be, belittled destinies?
It’s not about me
It’s aall and always and only me
Or, are you here, too?

;

Because an ideal is espoused by
less than ideal people does not
negate the message

;

The bullies took over the school,
with the help of some high IQ fools
Now they pull their stupid pranks
for cruel entertainment, ruining all
of our lives for a long time to come

;

The point is to kill the other children,
to avoid future generations with enough
strength to overcome them

;

So you are happy to daily deal with
the enmity fame creates, suffer attacks
public and private and against those
you care about; keep up strength
against opponents with money and
power; represent the interests of a
a greatly diverse constituency with
so many needs, goals, dreams;
somehow hold on to humanity,
keep the faith, the message, the
inchoate manifestation to be the
difference, the change you need to see?

;

Fire ICE! Let them melt

;

Trans people have given us the gift of
proving gender is not determined by
biology. We can be gender free.

;

He, the idealist healer from afar
She, the romantic hero
Find themselves in common plan,
within their wish upon a star
Where firelight winds blow
We, so need some wishes to believe in
We have to cling to, times we can’t
control.
A raging fire, desirous of total
consummation, these days we ache to
burn, to be consumed

;

It’s always the art, isn’t it
that makes the occasion

;

The Trump administration is knowingly
killing babies. Not just foreign babies,
American babies, denying them life
saving medical care. Better to be aborted,
kids, rather than suffer American mass
murdering policies

;

People who cling to their belief that
the myth of money makes them better
than everybody else
that Midas we the better for avoiding
the compromises relationships demand,
so elegant a man, enrobed in gold
Can these be people who inhabit such
reality, or caricatures made of lazy
characterization, made manifest in some
of upper station?
Is it all a puppet show, a clever demonstration
for merry applause? Whatever the cause,
the laws, the cures, there are yet layers more
