The damaged tree likely could still have been a home for animals. This, not so much.

I don't understand the need so many feel to make sure that human fingerprints are visible on everything. Like carving initials in trees, spray painting on boulders, stacking stones at the beach.

Can't we look out at the natural world and see that it's the absence of us, or absence of any signs we were there that makes it beautiful?

'so weird, my permissions were fine before and now they're gone? Can you give me access again? Ah fuck, all my work didn't save either... Gonna need another week.'

And it may have actually worked if they ran it horizontally instead of vertically like the wood panelling of yore

His profile demonstrates he's chronically insufferable. I wouldn't pay much attention to him.

Were they doing the work they were meant to do during work hours?

Working remotely shouldn't be treated as a privilege.

Genuine question, did it really matter whether he was in his normal house or holiday home? Unless it was a timezone issue or something?

I try to adhere to T.H.I.N.K

Is it True? is it Helpful? Is it Important? Is it Necessary? Is it Kind?

Depending on the situation and the company, I try to check off all 5 and if it doesn't, I won't say it.

It's a good guiding standard that I don't always meet, unfortunately, but I'm only human. If I realise I've missed the K factor later I will apologise.

My friends know me well enough as a know it all, so they're comfortable with making fun of me when I get all unnecessarily gabby on a subject. I'm cool with it.

From my exp, it's asking for validation that what's happening is expected. Also, sometimes the next step is not to click OK as another process may need to happen first.

I'm all good with people asking questions like that. They don't have any intuition about what you're showing them, so they're hesitant to make assumptions and that's ok.
