@KatyElphinstone @grrrr_shark I struggle to read these articles since I always felt that many of the struggles my kids had growing up came from an overabundance of empathy.

They did not always read social situations correctly, but that is not at all the same thing.

Must pace now before so the rage can pass.,

@Holberg @ShaulaEvans @kims Dammit! I wonder if there's anywhere I could claim to be travelling to that requires a shingles vaccine .

Then I could pay for one at a vaccine clinic!

@mattblaze Wow.

@globalmuseum Just lovely!

@celesteh @otfrom Also true.

@celesteh @otfrom I don't feel like I live in a particularly multicultural society here, though. I'm in NL, in a small city away from the big hubs. I actively miss the ethnic and cultural diversity of my home country.

@royaards Gefeliciteerd!!! 🥳

@RadicalAnthro That looks really interesting.

@ColinWoodArt Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

So lovely.

@moonrabbit I'm very happy with him. He's perfect.

Last week I unwrapped my Jizo sculpture from @moonrabbit
is sitting on my desk now, giving me serene bird-friend vibes and making me really, really happy that I went for it and bought him.

Joy grants mental resilience. It buffers grief.
