    Keep in mind we are the people our parents warned us about.

    Sometimes the deepest form of meditation...

    Is taking good shit in your own toilet

    Alone, quiet, nothing else
    No smartphone, no magazine or otherwise

    Just “let go”

    And after, you may feel the toxins leave your body
    Maybe even your mind

    I’m having a hard time watching Alien Covenant

    Not because of the gore or horror
    Because of the stupidity

    Uhh, universal precautions??
    Quarantine protocol

    Sure, let’s just land on a random planet
    And trounce around with not even a mask or gloves

    Yes, I know sci-fi does this all the time
    But I’ve just gotten real over the years

    Hell, at least in Star Wars they’ve already explored and populated the locales
    And Star Trek the can teleport in and out
    And clean them up during the teleport or put them directly into sick bay

    But basically stumbling into things...as professionals
    No excuse

    But I see stupid in cybersecurity all the time.
    And being aware saves me woe, even if I’m in target areas.

    People...come on, think

    Choose to place your money where it can make the most difference.

    Rather than spending stupid money making pointlessly cutesy valentines or purchasing nutritionally deficient foods for the school valentine's party, I spent a buck on My Little Pony valentines for my daughter (since writing her name on Valentines to hand out was her homework), and bought the teacher a $20 credit for the book fair so she could get some of the new books she wanted for the classroom. The parent volunteers at the book fair suggested that I hand the note about the credit to the teacher in person. I did. She was shocked to see me, and gushed over that tiny slip of paper with $20 written on it.

    Typing up meeting notes and sending them out to meeting participants is a refreshing exercise. I recommend doing it, even if no one asks.

    There's a reason why guinea pigs are only ranked at #4 in the list of top ten emotional support animals:
