These February 23rd readings from The Daily Stoic and 365 Tao both seem particularly apt right now:

A quotation from Cicero, Marcus Tullius:

Β«
Unchanging consistency of standpoint has never been considered a virtue in great statesmen.

[Numquam enim in praestantibus in re publica gubernanda viris laudata est in una sententia perpetua permansio.]

It is impractical for large numbers of people.

I live in the prairies. There are two "large" cities in my province, each about 250,000 people. Neither of these cities is large enough to have a lot of #specialty retailers - for example, there's no electronics supply house in my city.

It's a 7-hour drive to the nearest city that does have such a supplier.

*Lots* of people have very different #circumstances than you. Try not to order us to live like you can.

"Nobody has things just as he would like them. The thing to do is to make a success with what material I have. It is a sheer waste of time and soul-power to imagine what I would do if things were different.

Dear Friends, :lobster:
Due to #circumstances, #circumcisions and #circles of influence #beyond my #consciousness:

  1. I am 1 AM or even latter/later
  2. I am #poly-dualist
  3. Holy #Trinity

No matter … I have a #solution:

  1. #Think inside a box (as #taught by #cats
  2. It is a #dog eat #world for dog eaters-luvvers
  3. β€œ#Free Your #FREEDOM!” or at least your mind.

Sorry for the #assumptions. We assume you have a mind of your own? We #assume #nobody needs to tell you how to be useful? Any other assumptions we do not need β€˜splained?

Goodbye and thanks for all the fish-mice :ablobgoodnight:

Dear Friends of Home Delivery, 🚚

Yes we would all like to have a home delivered BUT I am talking about #Morrisons UK.

Now then … My #delivery, well in advance AND a saver slot was meant to arrive between 6-10 AM

However … due to #circumstances such as just in-time (#agile) delivery. They won’t be here until 9-10 PM. I blame #Amazon who are probably trying for a hostile take over. Again!

Will I cancel? :abloblurk: They already gave me a pending time for this morning … and then laterfied it …

My two siblings are expecting a meal of #crumble and custard [check] and a #meal. :ablobhungry: #Luckily I am #prepared for the end of the world/zombie apocalypse/American invasion etc.

And so meal available [check] :blobcouncil:

This thread is guaranteed vegan, 100% and kind to Animals, US, Zombies and the awoken … :ablobcouple:

Dear Friends of the Ice maidens, πŸ₯Ά
As we know ... or maybe can, there is much in the news of no #importance to our well ... being. How then to be a well of #well-being? :hearthands:
- eat your #greens (not the political party ing) βœ”οΈ
- #exercise the #neurons in your body (#brain included) πŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈ
- don't believe the #hype (especially your own) 🦞
#Today due to #circumstances, I will be #celebrating Wim Hoff and #Tummo because of #icy conditions ... πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ

Dear Poor Friends, :netkitty:
Due to #circumstances/#karma/#brainwashing by bad #anarchists :black_block_blob: I haz:

  • No money or credit
  • No home of my own
  • Not even the #sense I was born with …
    Despite that I have my own room, #access to a tiny #garden AND I managed to put in an order for #food yesterday.

How so? :byebrows: Difficult to say …

Have a great day, #follow the #kinder path, the #unknown … AND don’t be naughty … :ablobdancer:

Dear #Simple Friends, :ablobcatwave:
#Strangely #few of us are, simple that is. #Straightforward? #Obvious? #True? :thinkSpin: It all depends on:

- #Time, place, company. :omya_mastodon:
- Age, #hormones, #moon #phase, #sun activity. :paganverify:
- #Circumstances, #intention, #needs. :mindblown:

And to #complicate it all we need to #lump or #split, #tribal #align or #reject, #think, #emote, #unload or #soak up … :metalgif: :album: :ablobwave:
