People may not be persuadable by reason, and we donβt need to assume that they are. But we do have to live as if people are persuadable by love, mercy, and the life you are willing to live with them. This is, after all, the most meaningful form the truth ever takes.

Adventure Time is such a good show
Itβs time for another dancing in the kitchen video, ready or not!!!
Iβm not technically in the kitchen but trust me, this was safer (giant pot oβ chili on the stove). & I learned how to speed videos up, so basically Iβm a movie wizard now.
Dancing is human like art is human like love is human.
Note to self: Cancel more things. Just nope right out. Free up your time, save your energy, do less, say No more often, it’s okay, you don’t have to do all the things.
This poem comes to mind so often.
The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers;β
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon!
This Sea that bares her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping flowers;
For this, for everything, we are out of tune;
It moves us not…

I don’t even play chess (maybe I should start) but I enjoyed this book. Might watch the Netflix series again now.

This is the cheese-o-meter I’ve been waiting for. Thanks @davidmarsden for your service.
The good news is when the battery died I was literally a block from home. And my mechanic’s quick and less than a mile away. The bad news is it’s probably the battery and the alternator so there goes that extra Christmas money I’d been saving. Sometimes, Monday just tries too hard.
Criticism can be the most fierce when itβs coming from within, and there are always more ways to punish yourself. So Iβll repeat advice that I hope someday Iβll be able to take: Be kind to yourself and offer yourself grace.
DNF: The Bridge on the River Kwai by Pierre Boulle π
not merely dotted with racism, but steeped in it. No thanks.
In a society that increasingly values visibility over privacy, choosing to keep parts of our lives to ourselves can feel almost countercultural. Journaling is, in fact, punk as fuck.

Finished reading: Half Broke Horses by Jeannette Walls π
A biography-as-novel about Jeannette’s grandmother, who was the definition of indomitable. Easy to read, interesting details, and an unforgettable character. #bookstodon
Finished reading: A System for Writing by Bob Doto π
Helpful, detailed, clear, and actionable. If you’re at all interested in note-taking (generally) or in being more efficient with your inputs, a helpful read. #bookstodon
