‘So often, children are punished for being human. Children are not allowed to have grumpy moods, bad days, disrespectful tones, or bad attitudes, yet we adults have them all the time! We think if we don't nip it in the bud, it will escalate and we will lose control... We all have days like that. None of us are perfect, and we must stop holding our children to a higher standard of perfection than we can attain ourselves’

Can I ask you for a Boost?

I'm told that boosting is better than favoriting posts on here, and I'm working on that habit myself.
I'd really love to see how far and wide a picture of Buddy can go. If you see this, give me a boost and maybe I'll see how big this network can get!

Game idea: Solarpunk Sim City - Start with Earth in 2023 and try to fix it.

3 things I wish everyone understood about #COVID19 now:

- The main risk isn't acute illness or death but chronic harm to hearts, lungs & immune systems: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12VbMkvqUF9eSggJsdsFEjKs5x0ABxQJi5tvfzJIDd3U/edit?usp=sharing

- You can get Long COVID following a mild illness: https://fortune.com/2023/01/05/origins-of-long-covid-90-percent-initally-mild-symptoms/

- COVID is evolving to be more dangerous by defeating our immunity protection: https://fortune.com/well/2023/01/06/kraken-xbb15-omicron-covid-variant-most-transmissible-yet-could-spawn-more-immune-evasive-variants-study-china-vaccine-monoclonal-antibodies-breakthrough-infection/

This means we should try to avoid spreading COVID and helping it evolve. And we should be more concerned for ourselves and others. #WearAMask

Is anyone in the Philadelphia area looking to adopt 1-3 adorable boy kittens? We foster through Philly PAWS and we're starting to look for a forever home for the Pumpkin Spice Gang, shown here.
(Picture is somewhat deceptive; they rarely hold still long enough for a picture. But they are very snuggly.)

Today in 1936, Barbara Hanley becomes Mayor of Webbwood.
She becomes the 1st female mayor (not reeve) in Canadian history.
Media coverage questions how she will do her housework, while serving as mayor.
She serves as mayor until 1944, having won 8 consecutive elections.

On behalf of the vast majority of Canadians, I'd like to apologize for the creation of Jordan Peterson on our soil. He must have been raised by the geese. Sorry. Sincerely.

Peterson is about to lose his license. The Ontario College of Psychologists doesn't care at all about politics. They care that he's a grifter who routinely violates their code of conduct.

Enjoy this video of Peterson arguing with Peterson.

@Gargron

Demand doesn't necessarily mean something is a good idea though?

There's a lot of demand for centralisation, but that would be a really bad idea.

@geewiz @atmorojo I don’t know why I didn’t think of just looking for opinions online… The main Mastodon dev puts it perfectly. Can’t disagree with it now.

I needed to read this today. My New Years revolution is to live life vibrantly, like a benevolent alien.

I think it might help. 🧡
