Excellent advice for interacting in the blogosphere.
People fifty years ago probably couldn't have imagined that this level of ugliness was even humanly possible.
This is so important. It's basic to one's integrity.
Always remember the regime is not the country.

With a few people now heading for trillionaire status, I would note that a trillion seconds ago the Americas were not yet inhabited, woolly mammoths roamed northern Eurasia, and there were still a few neanderthals alive.
For most people, rural life is terrible, especially at a low technological level. There are good reasons why rural people all over the world are flocking to cities.

A lot of hard truths and inspirations this morning that were worthy of a pause.
I can identify with many of them; in recent years, I just have had to let go of all the bullshit. In a way, I feel... sad... that relationships have ended, but relieved that no longer have to accept the nonsense, the stress that came with them.
Thanks for all of these....especially the last one.
I snagged a couple of these to use myself. Thank you for these.
Rade: If relationships are causing you more stress than they're worth, then it's generally best to leave them.
Marc: I think everybody can benefit from that one.
Mary: I'm always glad when they're found snag-worthy.
That Klarna thing is funny - I got to take a deeper dive there.
Lots of good memes! Thanks for the shout-out.
Lady M: I've posted a link or two about Klarna in recent link round-ups. The story is every bit as humiliating for them as it sounds here.
Ricko: Always plenty more where these came from.....
