Happy Monday, folks.
I find setting my intentions for the day really helps. If I know what I intend for the day, I can pace myself a lot easier which really helps in maintaining my self care on a day to day basis.
There's always going to be something that needs to be done, but you don't have to do it all at once.
One nice thing about having access to a big printer is that I can think "I want more colorful posters" one day, and put these up on the office wall the next day.

Regarding Facebook tracking non-users Mark Zuckerberg said "This kind of data collection is fundamental to how the internet works."
I'm not a networking expert but I know enough to be able to confidently say that nothing at all about this data collection is fundamental to how the Internet works. I guess he was using Silicon Valley speak where "the internet" means "huge corporations who make most of their money by selling ads and illegally collecting as much data as possible".

Regardless of your personal belief - Happy Easter everyone! The message of universal and unconditional love is something that hopefully, we can all appreciate in our own way.
"Pharma Bro" has faced the wrath of Queen Karma. Who's next on the list? Drug co. CEOs for generic price fixing? Go Michael Cole - go go GO!

Never fails.
@MIDDLEoftheroad2018 Oh you're too kind! Thanks for that!😀
I'm not down on myself at all. I really do think I'm awesome and that success is almost completely luck.
That's not to say I'm the best. I'm not. But I'm just a good as some that have made it big. Maybe I'll hit it big one day, maybe I won't. All anyone can do is keep the dice and rolling.
@craigmaloney Ah awesome. Welcome to the thing! :)
@viTekiM OH Mike! I read your toot and felt so bad that you are this down on yourself. Sticking with something for a decade is AWESOME! Winners NEVER quit. I hope you find that success you seek soon. Please never give up the good fight!
@marijn
Please don't be too hard on yourself. We all forget details. You clearly care, which indicates you are a lovely person. That's far more than many might claim. Please be as kind to yourself as you are to others.
Carry on!
It's me, the nerd who forgets crucial personal details about people and then has trouble carrying a conversation with them because I don't want to ask again.
@craigmaloney No, upskill is not yet a real word. Hopefully, it never will be. It's sooooo not upscale tee hee!
@craigmaloney Craig, please don't give up or lose heart. The right job is out there for you. I have faith that you will find a work place that recognizes your talent.
Quite right! Just because you have a prick doesn't mean you have to be one!

@craigmaloney Aaaah, I see! Carry on then! And kudos to you for taking this on. My mom took a feral cat in, too. It took years, but "Baby" did come around!
@craigmaloney Craig, it's not normal for a cat to scratch so much. If this is a change in behavior then maybe a vet visit is in order.
If it's pretty usual, sometimes it works best to start off with a rub of kitty's neck; and to let kitty go the second you are alerted that it's enough. Once trust builds, kitty might be more interested in pats and cuddle a little longer, a little longer.
@PresGas Thanks! I had neglected to add that 2018!
