Today I helped to run a chess holiday program for kids in Launceston, Tasmania. It was so successful that the junior coordinator of chess sent me an SMS after.
"I just wanted to say a massive thanks to you about today and the whole term in general. I really really appreciate everything you are doing up North and in Devonport and I hope you are having fun doing so much!
Tassie chess has gone out of sight since you have come down and I am very thankful for that."
Great to be appreciated

Hello sweet people, tell me 3 things you're grateful about today 
here are mine :
1 - The lake behind me in the photo.
2 - Being able to go on vacation.
3 - Having an amazing partner and family-in-law.
Let's build #gratitude together
OMG!
Puss'n Boots appreciated!

One of my #favorite #genres of #photography (and also #art in general) is #SliceOfLife, #unique #perspectives on #ordinary or #mundane #scenery or #objects. I just #love the #appreciation of the #world we live in. We could all use more of that kind of #thinking ourselves, I believe.
My mom completes her 98th year on this earth on Monday. (Pretty sure she'll make it.)
Her aides are showing their appreciation and love. SR is the first with flowers (and a gift card for me, even, an hour-long massage 
)

Earth Angels & Red Cross Miracles: My Grandma's Story
When life throws unexpected challenges, it's the kindness of others that truly shines. 
My family and I overflow with gratitude for the Canadian Red Cross as they swiftly delivered a vital hospital bed to our home today, making my 94-year-old grandma's convalescence so much more comfortable!
As one of her caregivers, and knowing she is non-verbal, this brought such a huge relief.
If you're looking for a way to make a real difference, please consider volunteering or making a donation to the Canadian Red Cross.
They're a lifeline for so many families. Let's spread that kindness!

As a type 2 #diabetic, I learned to make this bread for me because it’s good for the gut flora 
Fermentation makes sourdough easy to digest while being nutritious and delicious 
Grateful to many online discussions about how to make sourdough properly as they helped me troubleshoot my first loaf which wasn’t sour enough 
#morningWalk Friday featured a new configuration of the #rideauRiverRock, a lovely #sunrise , the green ice chomping alligator( we just call it that) and two lovely #snowPeople in the nearby park.

We watch them.
We jerk off to their exploits.
We play them at our dance clubs, sex clubs, bathhouses, and they set off our sex lives by making us horny as fuck.
We consume their bodies and sex acts like we do food.
They eat ass, suck cock, fuck, and cum all for our entertainment and sexual gratification.
What we often forget is that they are people just like you and me. We forget that they have loves, desires, expectations, heartaches, pain, and yes, ends, just like the rest of us. In a way they achieve immortality. They are on film, tape, or digital files. Beautiful and youthful, horny and ready to play at the click of a button.
But they do die. Sometimes naturally, sometimes accidentally, and sometimes we never find out because as a society we look down on them regardless of how much we enjoy their work.
I want to raise a glass today to all the men and women who have met their ends and left behind their work.
To all the porn stars who we will remember not as themselves, but as the voracious sex gods that turned us on.
And here's to you, the people who have made databases online so we can look them up and get to know them more as people than as stiff cocks and deep holes.

Do you pay Geeglo/Mixroshoft/Shroom oodles of personal data and gobs of fiat & taxpayer money, but find that your meetings are a pain to start or are still limited to sixty minutes? Aside from the fact that it's probably a good idea to try to keep your meetings short and productive (15 or 25 min is my preference) - consider using #JitsiMeet or #BigBlueButton for a more ethical, flexible, sustainable conference for you and your attendees.
Thank you to both projects for hosting my day's virtual discussions without a hitch!

Rasmus Faber doesn’t get nearly enough credit for just the shear volume of prolific work he’s cranked out over the years.
Even though I like one or two specific styles he uses sometimes, just listening to his entire catalog in appreciation is just amazing.

Designers not raised on dinosaurs like bugzilla probably can't quite appreciate the joy of inline images in modern issue trackers like gitlab. Age coming back to me, but in the shower of negativity it's nice to reflect some of the nice things we got.
