"4chan was right " is a funny lesson to take when the files show Epstein was behind /pol and Pizzagate.

Nothing changed my perspective on intrusive thoughts like learning they are directly related to mental exhaustion. If you notice them, you need mental rest.

Sleep is helpful but just not doing anything for a little while is helpful too. Sitting around staring into space or looking our a window, no TV, no phone, no book, no shampoo bottle instructions; rawdog reality. Not for super long, 2 or 5 minutes is enough, don’t need to push thoughts away or think of nothing or meditate if that’s not your thing. Just try doing nothing at all for a little bit, let your brain rest.

Could you explain about Cosmos? It just said it’s an AI tagging app. Does it have content to review or just a saving tool? I’ve got a bazillion notebook apps but only Pinterest lets me browse text-free for any length of time.

I joke Pinterest is the only app that doesn’t make me cry but it’s because I can work for hours before being interrupted by text boxes or intrusive text ads.

Right! It only took that one frame and the whole song dropped back into my head. Absolute banger.

Got something against English people? Dude was born in the UK and is an Oxford dropout.

Never forget the iPod sock, released November 2004.

I genuinely love Robwords and watched one yesterday about lost negative words, but no, I looked this one up manually because I was curious. I’ll go look for Rob’s video today because I’d love to know more and he’s a great presenter.

I just learned the other day that in English “you” is the old formal.

Here in Pennsylvania, we know that Quakers used thee and thou far longer than anyone else. Turns out, that was a protest movement. You and yours were used for nobility and royalty, the piece I was reading said the “royal we” is a leftover from this setup.

As a protest against classism and politics, Quakers refused to use you and yours at all and used thee and thou for everyone regardless of status. Instead, common usage English went the other way and adopted you and yours for everyone.

My mother met old Quaker ladies in the 1950s who still used thee and thou in common conversation.

So, nothing? You’ve done nothing.

What work have you turned down? Let’s hear your brave tales of resistance so the rest of us know what to do.

But not old enough to remember that charges were eventually dropped?
