CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@broadwaybabyto I agree that the reasoning is sound. Have you looked into getting a portable air filter, for the purpose of further increasing safety? Not one of the voc ones, (to not affect your sniff test), but a particle catcher. There's some bag size ones that's got pretty good reviews here (Sweden), meant for hotel rooms etc so one has a space to safely be unmasked while travelling, and I am sure there must be US equivalents. That's the only thing I can think of that would increase safety.

@skinnylatte this has happened to me, before I realised about my joint/mobility problems and asthma and needing a slow pace. I probably wasn't in danger, but I was Scared, the "my group abandoned me and I'm gonna die alone now" instinctual anxiety kicked in, which made me less rational, panic was probably the biggest risk to me in the place I was. I am horrified at the situations and places some of these people have been left in.

@eclectech testing in production this way is so deeply unethical

@mariyadelano I am so glad I don't share that experience. I still love all kinds of pens.

@eclectech I love this so much. I think it's one of my favourites of yours.

Earlier he was leaning against me and twisting to get bellyrubs

On my lap. At least I am warm... (He's facing away from me)

@gannet I'm on the other end of whatever spectrum aphantasia is one end of, extremely vivid imagination, and I can't with most books. I am extremely grateful for the Celia Lake recommendation from you about four or five years ago, they rarely make me tense up. I'm also quick thinking and can imagine all the ways something can go wrong, so for instance breaking in to the villain's house/room always terrifies me. Don't doooo iiiiiit
