Cartoon by Guy Richards Smit. New York City. A long queue outside a polling place. Sign on the sidewalk saying "vote here" with an arrow pointing towards the building. In the queue, one man says to another, "He got my vote when my in-laws threatened to leave the city if he wins."

Live your life in a way that when the escalator stops you don’t assume it’s because people hate you.

☀️ Ha ha - fairly easy to remember as we celebrated Tracy Day a week ago. My mental filing cabinet of “sun fun” still works - a welcome antidote to dark times.
Tweet by Philip Grobler to Parbati Sherbet dated 25 February 2021 stating: This week we celebrated “Tracy Day”, named after a colleague who every year anticipates the day she can finish her work day (5:30pm) before sunset. This brought to mind your tweet last year about “sun skirt mountain day” which I mentally filed away in a box labelled “sun fun” ☀️
