Looking through the lens
is another form of care.
It slows observation
and teaches patience in a new way.

Some days,
growth is not about change —
but about seeing more clearly.

Today is #January8, 2026.

Recently, I watched this video from @elvirabary.bsky.social on how, for decades, the Russian state has instilled an anti-Western worldview in its people to excuse its own domestic issues.

What are your thoughts on this?

Today is #January8, 2026.

Here is something to consider:

100 years ago, the United States could look at European politics, and credibly argue that situations in Europe were NOT its problem. After all, the United States was NOWHERE near the superpower status, and had its own issues at home.

When I read They Knew Ch 6, I was immediately shocked at the realization by banning Trump from Twitter, it was a gift to him. I thought it was good that he couldn't cause trouble until you quoted Orwell: "Who controls the past, controls the future"
On January8, 2021, Donald Trump's Twitter account was obliterated "After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter's official Safety account confirmed. The "context around the tweets" was the violent coup that Trump's backers had attempted with his encouragement two days before. But Twitter did not simply suspend the president, who in the past had used Twitter to instigate violence, amplify death threats and threaten nuclear war with no penalty. They did not merely prohibit him from writing new tweets. They deleted everything he had ever written or shared, and in doing so, erased evidence and altered collective memory. As of late 2021, Trump's removal from Twitter is the most lasting re percussion he faced for helping launch the worst attack on the United States Capitol since 1812. Both Congress and the FBI refuse to impose meaningful consequences or carry out a thorough investigation into ple who sought to killthem. Trump isstill holding rallies, which television networks air live and without criticism, and is still collecting donations: Twitter is where his absence is most notable; Twitter is where the balance of power shifted. But the erasure of his account was not a punishment. It was a gift. "Who controls the past, controls the future," George Orwell wrote in his dystopian novel 1984. "Who controls the present, controls he past. Past events, it is argued, have no objective existence, but survive only in written records and human memories. The past is whatever the records and the memories agree upon," Trump's 57,000 tweets are still out there. They are housed, in a scattershot style, on data storage sites and will allegedly be preserved by the National Archives, though as of late 2021, Trump is suing the National Archives in an attempt to suppress information. Trump's fans still bask in his social media legacy; former CNN president Jeffrey Zucker had framed Trump tweet hanging in his office. But Trump's tweets are no longer on Twitter, where prior to January 8, 2021, his critics would revive them daily. Instantly accessible on the network from which they derived, they were held up as examples of hypocrisy, paragons of irony, or proof of a plot. They were time-stamped reminders used to name and shame, and they were scrutinized- both by investigative journalists and by acolytes of his personality cult- in an attempt to make sense of a tumultuous present and an uncertain future. They showed who knew what and when, and gave some insight into why.
