    Can't wait to check out our new library with an outdoor amphitheater, lecture hall, balcony seats, 3D printing, audio studio, kids room etc

    That sounds like a great library as well as a great community center. If people bring coffee they could spend the entire day!

    Agreed! They have outdoor picnic areas and seating too.

    I wonder how this would look in a bald man. Would they forget to polish their head in the morning?

    Hope you had positive not negative reasons for distraction! :)

    Ha neither. Just life. And a healthy dose of ADHD I think

    Gilbert was a...unique individual. I thought I was the only one here to mention him.

    You're a New Yorker arent you? Wild guess. Just throwing it out there. :D

    Sometimes you have to stay busy so you don't have time to feel...

    You are describing a way to avoid negative feelings. Generally, a person doesn't try to avoid positive feelings.
    LadyS
    LadyS
    Yes for negative feelings. But keeping busy can generate positive feelings as well, as long as it's productive...

    Forgot to wish everyone a Happy Holi yday. Seems like it's becoming widespread celebration with a lot of forgotten significance...

    It originates from a Gita story of arrogant King Hiranyakashipu who thought he should be worshipped over Vishnu and his son who disagreed. His evil aunt Holika tried to trick the son into being burned alive in a pyre, but instead was protected by Vishnu and Holika was burned instead. So it's about victory of good over evil ultimately. But also later about celebration of spring and joy, etc.

    Isn't it also traditionally the Wedding anniversary of Ram and Sita?

    I spent a lot of my youth in the ISKCON Krishna temple, and got really involved. It was over ten years ago, the last time I went, so I don't remember as much anymore, but I kind of remember some of the stories, and I can still sing a few bhajans by heart.

    Do you say Haribol, or is that just a Hare Krishna thing?
    LadyS
    LadyS
    No, their wedding is celebrated on Vivaha Panchami, different holiday. Holi is actually associated with Krishna and his lover Radha...

    We don't say haribol but I know it's not only relegated to Hare Krishnas

    Totally. My favorite was the kid that suggested I buy myself a cookie and ice cream... Some wholesome advice right there :)

    Today, saw a program on UA Flight 232 crash, learned about Juliane Koepcke, and watched more Manifest. Now I'm afraid to fly again eek.

    No ending is worse than a bad ending.

    Manifest was cancelled just when it was getting good.

    Heard Netflix picked up on the 4th and final season.. wonder if that's still accurate

    Interesting. But not enough for me to get Netflix.

    I really love that art you use for your avatar! ♥

    And it kind of reminds me - have you seen the movie "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children?" Because I think if a person enjoys that picture, they'll probably also enjoy that movie...

    Not sure why not staying informed is suddenly the new "woke". But it's actually what the "fascist" wants. Staying ignorant of what's going on around you. Reason why people in my state keep voting for idiots as well. But agree if you can't keep your emotions separate from what you read/view, best to find other ways to stay informed.
    LadyS
    Not enough peace of mind. That's what's wrong these days. Go, do, speak now now...reflect and think later. If you have time.
    LadyS
    ....or maybe it just exacerbated their already held traits.

    A lot of my “friends” showed their true colors after a while and that’s why I mostly keep to myself now. I’m not really an unhappy person but I’m pretty jaded about irl friendships.
    LadyS
    LadyS
    I still stay on cuz I like to dissect people's motivations so i can navigate social situations. Unfortunately I'm not in a position where i can avoid them. Agree on the true colors tho, also another reason why.. it's more intel.
    LadyS
    Social media has changed so many I know into vain, superficial, validation and attention-seeking, two-faced, mindless zombies...

    I was literally tempted to post a meme about this earlier but decided it could have been taken the wrong way. But I completely agree. That’s why I’m not on it any longer… I let my friend search Twitter for memes instead.

    A friend had an interesting idea, that everyone get assigned a therapist upon birth to help us cope through life
