If you have achieved something, please remember to observe a mandatory period of basking in the warm glow of your achievement like a lizard on a stone, lest you teach your brain that effort is futile, actually, because it didn't get to enjoy its happy chemicals, so, naturally, nothing good ever comes of trying. (And no, avoiding punishment is not a reward!)
I recommend, like, 5% of basking time in relation to whatever time you invested into achieving the thing minimum. And if you can't make your own bask, friend-brought is fine (= tell your friends!).
Wednesday: Enid texted me “your adorable” so I texted her back and said “no, YOU’RE adorable.”
Eugene: And?
Wednesday: And now we’re dating. We’ve been on six dates. All I did was point out a typo, but I like her, so I’m not gonna say anything.
Lunar eclipse/full moon tonight 😎 therefore it’s enid’s day

If companies are allowed to sue you for losses during a strike, there is now no longer an incentive to not simply burn down your place of work.

Whenever a person walks out of the accessible bathroom stall and sees me, a wheelchair user, sitting outside waiting for the stall, they often apologize.
In the beginning, I said, "No worries!" Because I was too scared to be confrontational.
Then I started saying nothing.
But after a while, I realized that some disabled people may be a portion of the people that apologize. And I never want to make an invisibly disabled person feel bad for using accommodations that they need. There are many different reasons a disabled person would need the stall!
(It is tiring waiting for ages while someone uses the stall to change, or do their makeup. It is not annoying for anyone who needs the stall to use it.)
So, I've decided to start saying, "That's okay! I believe every disabled person should be able to use the accessible stall!"
Because then, if they are invisibly disabled, hopefully that will put them at ease.
And if the person isn't disabled, it will remind them that the accessible stall is not just "the big stall."
