The Well
I'm like, "If I write on Uptrust, what will I write about for my other stuff?" Ugh. That thought is poorly shaped. I believe the shapes of our thoughts create us back. That thought is telling my mind to format like a finite well.... - Missy...
Frozen Wednesday Feb 4
Frozen Wednesday. The ground is still locked in ice. The trees are quiet. Even the deer step softer when the world feels this tense. Nancy Guthrie is still missing — a family somewhere living every parent-child nightmare in real time.... - renee...

You know, in the days since the debate, watching the late night talk show hosts circle the wagons around Kamala by saying, essentially, "These VP debates don’t even matter really. Who cares.... - david...
Pre VP Debate warm up
Pre VP Debate warm up. I was thinking that Trump resembles "Anger" from Inside Out, and in the first movie, when Anger gets fed up, he goes rogue, steals mom’s credit card and buys a bus ticket to Minnesota (Make Riley Great Again).... - nat...
I personally think there’s something beautiful about how well our country can run even when Trump or an aging Biden are in power. Wow, this is such an interesting perspective and feels so true.... - Julia H...
Seems to me that the inclusion of another political party (a "third way") would alter the rhetoric SO much. Instead of I'm right/priviledged/conservative - you're left/woke/liberal, the values of being insightful, balanced and self-effaced might create new respect for thoughtful... - Mo Jeffreys...
As far as Alex Pretti is concerned, he was not some innocent that ICE agents decided to shoot because they had a few minutes…he was a deeply disturbed man and it was clear to anyone who watched the BBC video from a week or so before he was shot.... - _abree_...
Unfortunately, I find it literally impossible to hold my tongue when confronted with lies, propaganda, mis- or disinformation or any of the myriad ways currently being used to rip this country apart..... - Manuka...
Secrets are being revealed while they are still meaningful
"Hot take: The big events of today, such as Elon auditing government spending, classified documents (perhaps) being released, wars being ended in (for some) dissatisfying ways, are happening now so that long-held secrets can be revealed and our responses can have us truly know... - Ambiguously...
You voted for Trump, being so formal is comical, because he appeals to the racism you were raised with. It's a knee jerk reaction. The only people that think it's this or that, black or white, red or blue, up or down, are the sycophants and the people who refuse to acknowledge... - Ambiguously...
Since you've just regurgitated Trump's "boasts" that have been proven to be fabrications, it's you demonstrating a high degree of ignorance. As far as any award, we consistently see Trump buy or bully his way into awards.... - SupaUglyTV...

Of course you do. It’s hard to see how, in the midst of chaos, that peace and normalcy will ever be possible again. I’m betting you’re an empath, as am I. We feel everything, and right now there is so much despair and evil blanketing the US that it inspires hopelessness.... to a hammer everything looks like a nail... but I honestly think social media exacerbated this conundrum where people who are genius in their fields automatically translate into other fields.... Here’s another version of this perspective that I just stumbled across in the wild from @Valerie Daniel "When this much of the country votes for them, there must be a reason beyond misogyny and racism" with the implication of "a reason" being the good of the...
