Do not seize the day. This will startle the day and may cause it to becomes aggressive and give you a nasty bite.
Instead approach the day calmly without making eye contact, pet it gently, and slowly enfold it in a careful embrace
If the day shows any signs of resistance to being engaged with, it is likely to turn on you. Back off and return to bed.
Because Iβm clearly incapable of not oversharing on the internet, I figured Iβd post a photo of the rest of my apartment to prove that I legitimately live in a studio apartment and not a fancy mansion so please donβt come rob me because I donβt have anything worth stealing and besides I set up a bunch of booby traps Home Alone style.
They got used to it, they began to let the children walk for a while with detailed instructions on how to act when the siren sounds, what mines are, where to run if rockets fly.
We are used to sirens and rockets. This is bad, because we stop hiding in shelters...
Children are playing in the street... rockets are flying. ..the resettled woman who came to our village fell on the road screaming in panic..she is scared, her house was bombed. ..the children scared, ran home in tears. 1/3π
Tomorrow will be February 24. My memories... It was scary to sleep. I set the alarm every hour to read that Kyiv is standing. It was scary to lose freedom, the feeling that if it is taken away you will not be able to breathe anymore.
The first days of spring... Children did not run around the street, parents were afraid to let their children out of the house. 1/2π

Janewayβs logic was that the cheap knock-off of Harry Kim saved the cheap knock-off version of Naomi Wildmanβ¦ so, no promotion.
Why give Meta $12-$15 a month when you could pay only $1 instead to support my occasional jokes about how hilariously incompetent Meta is? Also, I post pictures of my cats. Just look at them. Mark Zuckerberg doesn't post pictures of cats. If anything, Zuckerberg eats cats. I have no proof of this but we all know it's true.

@sezduck i'm sure if original Harry Kim had of made it they would've promoted him by that point, shame he was blown out the ship in season 2

My first post on Mastodon, trying it out :) I'm tired of Instagram, Twitter and the likes so I wonder if this will suite me better.
Here's an uncomfortable American history fact. While folks often point out that after Jesse Owens won 4 gold medals at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Hitler refused to shake his hand.
But what happened next? Well, after returning home, Owens & 17 other Black Olympians were denied an invite to the White House. Instead, President Roosevelt only invited white Olympians. And it wasn't until 2016 that the White House finally apologized and invited their descendants to the WH.
2016.
