I just wanted to acknowledge what you wrote here and offer a bit of good energy for the beginning of your day.

Agreed…Lemmy slightly reminds me of the early days of Internet forums/chatrooms/etc.

Yes, I’m old.

With more gusto!

🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽🖕🏽

lol I would want to punch that person, too

In this case, her expectation was that she receive whole paragraphs (with positivity if possible) for comments on her slide deck, rather than a short comment with my suggestion to make stuff better.

She’s the dumbass who asked a technical editor to review her stuff 🤷‍♀️ 😀 😀

(and before anyone points out my grammatical/punctuation errors above: it’s early and idgaf)

Ok …. Your enthusiasm about the pdf ripping has won me over. I’m trying this shit asap

Weird … I was told the exact same thing by my boss.

So I stopped using emojis, and then she told me that my messages were “passive-aggressive” or “rude”

And I told her that’s why people use emojis, to add the nuance that is missing because we aren’t communicating face-to-face 🤷‍♀️

I beg to differ

I’m going to assign you a book:

Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realistic Radicals by Saul Alinsky

Do you remember when the right-wing dummies were all shrieking about this book, and how Hillary Clinton was mentored by Alinsky?

It’s because they were following the damn advice in that book - it’s like a checklist of what to do to take over locally, then statewide, etc

I wonder how close they anticipate that vote being.

My bet is those 3 votes would have made a difference.

Oh shit….I need to go get that!

(Speaking of books …. time to go see if that fancy hardback edition of Cibola**Burn is ever going to get released.

edit: it’s not coming out any time soon 😤

They absolutely were.

I’m grateful someone stopped my daughter’s suicide.

Right?!

Well, yes…and it’s been quite obvious for some time now.

I can’t have been the only person who noticed the weird sudden pattern of American Neo-Nazis with hot Russian wives a decade ago.

That’s exactly right; your continuous effort (and mine) happens to be different.

It’s just internal and invisible to others, but it’s still happening constantly.

I do my absolutely best work a couple of hours before the big project is due.

I might have had a few weeks to do it, but nooooo. I don’t even really get started until the night before.

I do think it’s the added “element of danger” that kicks my brain into overdrive.

The rest of the time, I’m in a quasi-befogged state. Perhaps during that boring time, I’m saving up energy to handle the “danger” before going back into my little trance.

I’ve been weirdly extremely successful once I figured out how to work with this tendency, instead of fighting it.

Damn…his people are spamming everyone, aren’t they? I got two of these this week (stop for both, obviously)

Her little face 🤣🤣🤣

Stubborn and creative!

I like it :)

This is exactly why I have a complex system of alarms set up on my phone 🤦‍♀️
