And it feels so much better to support others achievements and celebrate milestones..
The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

2. Should I infer the person who gave this to me loves me or wishes to torment me

Trying to work out if it's weird to be ridiculously excited that @wilwheaton.net and @sirpatstew.bsky.social, along with several other beloved TNG characters will soon be appearing as Lego figures.

Before you post something grumpy / snarky
(Yes, the temptation to vent anger is so strong now)
Pause and ask yourself—
How does this comment help?
Who does this comment help?
Who might this comment harm, even unintentionally, even as collateral damage?
Don’t make the world worse. Please.

Vanishing in a puff of temporal anomoly logic is how I want to go...
The doorbell rang. I checked the peephole, and saw someone who looked almost like me. I let him in.
"I'm your future self. Listen-"
"Wait! How did you even get here?" I asked.
"British Rail, Anytime Return ticket."
"They killed British Rail in 1997!“
"It'll be back. But list-"
He disappeared.

So true
The minute someone posts that I shouldn’t be distracted by something I become attracted to it. I commit to it. I pretend the distraction is a vast palace with room after room featuring elaborate moulding that I must note. Time stands still. All glitters.

Well said Mr Scalzi...
I believe that everyone should be allowed the space and time and opportunity to become who they truly are. I am sad that some people, given the space and time and opportunity, choose to be assholes.

URGENT: if anyone has seen or found a huge (A2) sized folder in the parking lot of MCM London, Excel Arena please let me know. We unfortunately left all our A3 prints behind as we were going back home and this is financially devastating.
Please also RT so this can reach further.

For some reason I am reminded of the baffling conversation I once had with a KGB officer in Siberia who was convinced that Thought for the Day had to be coded instructions for Western intelligence agents.
“Otherwise it would just be nonsense and the BBC would not broadcast nonsense!”

If you won't make the world accessible to those currently disabled today, at least do it for your future self. Be as selfish as you like, say: "When I'm 80, I want to be able to get a coffee and pastry down the street, all by myself."
"Ability is, more or less, a temporary state. Each of us comes into the world helpless, and we leave it helpless.... It could happen to you tomorrow. If we make it so, life can be a broad path. There is room for all of us."
