Was the wrong country disarmed 30 years ago?

This December 5th marks the 30th anniversary of the Budapest Memorandum—an agreement meant to provide security assurances to Ukraine in exchange for its decision to give up the world’s third-largest nuclear arsenal.

A sincere decision to make is to refuse to give up until the society experiences the defeat of every form of injustice and ungodliness.

They want you to use a black umbrella; use yellow, use red, use green and always refuse the thing they want you to use! Refusal is often more honourable than conformity!

I ought to say no to it all. But what is it all?

Iris Murdoch, from A Fairly Honourable Defeat

[virtuouslibertines69]

"We are punished for our refusals. Every impulse that we strive to strangle broods in the mind and poisons us. The body sins once, and has done with its sin, for action is a mode of purification. Nothing remains then but the recollection of a pleasure, or the luxury of a regret. The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden itself." - Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

The weak project their incapacity as virtue, extolling characteristics such as humility and submission. While condemning qualities they cannot achieve - such as pride and self sufficiency.

Speaking is impossible, but so too would be silence or absence or a refusal to share one’s sadness.

Jacques Derrida, The Works of Mourning

The ultimate error is the refusal to look evil in the face.

— Rollo May

Do not live half a life

and do not die a half death.

If you choose silence, then be silent.

When you speak, do so until you are finished.

If you accept, then express it bluntly.

Do not mask it.

If you refuse then be clear about it

for an ambiguous refusal is but a weak acceptance.

Do not accept half a solution.

Do not believe half truths.

Do not dream half a dream.

Do not fantasize about half hopes.

Half the way will get you nowhere.

You are a whole that exists to live a life

not half a life.

Khalil Gibran.

A vent

A rant, even. I don't know what tw tags I should put here other than a general vent tw. Stay safe and be nice to yourself!

I want an autism evaluation by an actual specialist but every time I bring it up with my mom she just says that I'm not autistic. I can't bring it up with her without me crying afterwards and even when she says she will look into it she makes it seem like such a big burden on her. I've taken a whole bunch of screening tests and I've always scored higher than the autistic threshold. I think that if I wasn't gifted and talented I'd have been diagnosed by now. I was verbally diagnosed by a therapist when I was 13 but it wasn't legal or put on my record. There's basically zero teen autism diagnosis services in my area so I feel really stuck. My irl friends are super supportive of me and my self identification so I feel safe at school with them around. I thought about talking to the school phycologist about it but my mom might have been contacted about it and just the thought of that makes my stomach hurt. My mom said that a doctor could just look at me and tell that I'm not autistic but I don't know who to trust and how to feel. I feel really stuck.

When people refuse to pay the price of personal responsibility for the problems of the nation, these same people end up paying the high price of irresponsibility, which is often in tragedy and sorrow.
