You know, even if you don't believe in gods, I think it's good to have quiet time alone in a setting that lets you see how small you and all your problems are: doesn't have to be a church, it can be the mountains, a canyon, somewhere where you can quietly view the vastness of the cosmos, the ocean or whatever.
I think it's good to find something that does that for you: gives you that reflective, awe-inspiring religious feeling.
And after you find it, make some time for it occasionally.
Happy Valentines Day!
I’m going back to bed and die in the arms of my electric blanket! ❤️

It's actually here! You can read it! My first novel (writing as myself) is now available on Amazon!
Stay tuned for more over-exuberant posts as it becomes available wide as an #ebook, and also as a paperback! OMG! Exclamation points!
(I'm actually pretty excited.)
@sazemisery I love quilting, I was so excited to see your post. I keep saying I’m going to learn.
This is really informative to what is going on between Congress Committees and Big Social Media and law Sec 230
@th3j35t3r I was really impressed when you told me you don’t use an algorithm. You might like to watch it around 2 hrs 56 mins. It brings up the harm of algorithms and how they are used for profit.
Wow, this is horrible. It’s racism flat out. I am seeing things these days I didn’t realize still existed. From an elected official in congress.
He is just unstable. Pumping negativity and lies to people that believe him. It’s horrible.

Mayorkas again. First unless he is funded by a federal budget that can’t seem to get through the House, then he has been made incapable of carrying out his duties fully.
Second they should start investigations for all of those clowns under the Hatch Act.
Last paragraph on the pamphlet for federal employees. All except the President and Vice President
So I was reading the attached article and I have a technical question. Could a cell phone monitor the frequency/data transmitted level of the voice on the phone? A natural voice falls below the frequency levels of the phones range. Reading this it sounds like to synthesize a voice it is at a much higher level because of everything needed in the algorithm. So could the voice be measured? Natural vs fake?
I’m just me.
