Just a little reminder--if you are feeling down and discouraged, one of the most effective things you can do to feel better is to help someone else
offer a kindness
make a donation
hold a door
pick up a piece of litter
a small prosocial act can achieve double-goodness
try it

Someone told me that if you preface any tweets or Truthies or whatever from #TFG with "Mommy said..." you will instantly enjoy it more. And you know, they aren't wrong.
A great deal of pain on this earth is caused by others assuming they control a decision that is ultimately not theirs because it offends their belief system.

Hey #CoSo. I haven't done this in a few months, but I've noticed that the funding has been getting a little more challenging each month.
Storage, compute, bandwidth: not free.
#CoSoPro will help everyone keep the lights on and keep this the place it is. You won't have an algorithm shoving content down your throat. It won't ever be a thing you have to pay for, but if you can, throw in a few bucks to keep the lights running and @th3j35t3r (somewhat) sane.
No guarantee on that last one.
Professional computer nerd. Pretty much an amateur at everything else.
