My partner let our coffee supply dwindle to zero, so while she (convinced it's my fault) is off to fetch us some, I'm enjoying some black tea that just this morning I learned she can't have (but she didn't say why, but snapped back at me as though I somehow should have known/remembered).
Oooh, fun: https://notably.cc

My phone is about 99% for playing spider solitaire.

All I'm seeing is the title twice, and a lightning-bolt-ish symbol. Perhaps some sort of being-logged-in is required?

Yeah, I left that obnoxious place years ago – right around the same time I left Facebook and Twitter. It's nice to be able to hear an ASCII pin drop again.

Very good first post.
And, oh, how I wish I could stay up all night without feeling as though run over by a train carrying online “news”.

This species might be a lot better off without the word 'is' and its various forms.

Perhaps there needing to be a word ('minimalism') for it is too much?

Inability to see word-twisting on the other “side” screams “far too biased to take seriously” to me.
In fact, what's taking place might be referred to as a word-twisting contest whose most hilarious aspect is that self-nominated members of each “side” are convinced only idiotic self-nominated members of the other “side” are playing.

Ego is the central character in all-mental-is-illness drama, distinguishing it”self” from all else as merely “other” happening around/to/for it.

It's a funkily self-referential topic (e.g. What I “has” ego? Is it ego that has ego? But isn't that saying nothing? And yet...).
