"Do you love Me?" Alice asked.

"No, I don't love you!" replied the White Rabbit.

Alice frowned and clasped her hands together as she did whenever she felt hurt.

"See?" replied the White Rabbit. "Now you're going to start asking yourself what makes you so imperfect and what did you do wrong so that I can't love you at least a little.

You know, that's why I can't love you. You will not always be loved Alice, there will be days when others will be tired and bored with life, will have their heads in the clouds, and will hurt you.

Because people are like that, they somehow always end up hurting each other's feelings, whether through carelessness, misunderstanding, or conflicts with themselves.

If you don't love yourself, at least a little, if you don't create an armor of self-love and happiness around your heart, the feeble annoyances caused by others will become lethal and will destroy you.

The first time I saw you I made a pact with myself: 'I will avoid loving you until you learn to love yourself.' "

@IAmErik Lists are groups of people you want to follow seperately (usually in its own column)... circles are about privacy, they give you the ability to specify a specific group of people who can see a post (set by clicking the audience button on a post).

@mxtthxw

I'm getting the shits just thinking about it.

@trinsec @PawelK

@trinsec

I guarantee you this dude is all fat and tendons, not a slice of good meat on him.

@mxtthxw @PawelK

@trinsec

I feel like he would be all tendons and gristle...

@ZingerLearns I find doing GUI/graphical apps quite tedious and boring.. the text based nature of a MUD on the otherhand is quite enjoyable.

@Pat

LOL actually it couldnt handle that.. It actually isnt meant to handle custom pronouns (though one could add them).. Its intended to handle all the standard pronouns and all variations. For example in its current form it does assume the standard sexes of male, female, neuter.

@zleap

@mxtthxw

I'd prefer the kebab!

@PawelK

@AndyLowry Her great grandmommy/daddy invented the flute :)

@zleap its also not just used for people but NPCs and enemeies in the game.. it needs sto address crowds and neuter things too.. stuff like "everyone" and "them".

@zleap Thats not the purpose of it.. There isnt a single pronoun.. for example its not just "he" .. its "He, him, his, Mr. Man" and which you use depends on the context it is used in. This system addresses that.

@Pat

It all comes downt o definition... the first musical instrument would be ones voice, after that perhaps a woodpecker or the beating of the tail of a beaver or similar.. I'm sure some human hit two sticks together like a drum at one point too...

I think if you really want to define a musical instrument for this context in a meaningful way it would have to be some object that had to be formed to make sounds it couldnt naturally do.

@trinsec

@trinsec

yes its qoto-no-ticker and is the new default.. if your on the default (never changed themes) it should have autofixed. Otherwise you might want to manually change the theme to qoto-no-ticker or a similar theme without a ticker.

@Pat

@trinsec lol typical

@trinsec That doesnt mean we are neanderthals... it only implies we have common ancestry.

Interesting fact of the day: The first archaeological evidence of instruments, a flute, was **not** made by humans, in fact, it was made by a neanderthal and is 60,000 years old.
