Kindness” covers all of my political beliefs. No need to spell them out. I believe that if, at the end, according to our abilities, we have done something to make others a little happier, and something to make ourselves a little happier, that is about the best we can do. To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn’t always know this and am happy I lived long enough to find it out.

fishingboatproceeds: Roger Ebert has died. He was a movie critic, an advocate for disability rights, a recovering alcoholic, and a regular contributor to the New Yorker’s cartoon caption contest. He watched and read and wrote extremely broadly—most famously about movies but also about novels and politics and religious life in America.  To some, he was known primarily for his comments that video games aren’t art. Ebert was wrong about that, as he was wrong about plenty of other things, too. But his was a broadly lived life of public intellectual engagement, something that we don’t see very often anymore, and something worth celebrating.

Everyone who grew up with Disney films can pinpoint their most relatable moment from any one of them and typically it’s stuff like Belle’s obsession with books or how Aladdin gets when he’s telling the Genie about Jasmine or Ariel’s struggle for independence with her dad

Nothing inherently wrong with choosing that stuff

But for me nothing really beats that one scene in Pinocchio where he takes the stage at the circus

And he’s like

I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.

I hate Arrested Development.

There is literally no way for them to be that clever. There is NO WAY. I’m so mad.

Might this explain a lot about why Buster as an adult is still needing constant supervision…. among other things… “may suffer problems with their vision as well.” “Feeling tired or depressed.” “…you lose use of the hand opposite of the hemisphere that was removed.” Q: “What Risks Are Associated With a Functional Hemispherectomy?
