I wish more people did this, including myself. Thanks for the reminder.

maybe the single most important self-regulation skill anybody can ever learn is when to take a break bc we're too upset to participate in a healthy way

ruemcclammyhand.bsky.social•514 days ago

i had to do this yesterday for a bit bc i was getting way too deep into 'if it turns out i'm wrong about this then i'm gonna be MAD' territory and it's like why. it's ok to be wrong. have a snack.

reachrachelkahn.bsky.social•514 days ago

indeed. have a snack, have a nap, do something constructive in the real world (even if it's just taking a shower), etc

Facts!🙏🏼💕💕💕

No, I have to rock back and forth while fuming, it's on the schedule.

goodcitizen.bsky.social•514 days ago

It is always an option

joanthebigboat.bsky.social•514 days ago

that sounds nice, I will not

wistfulwitness.bsky.social•513 days ago

Very solid advice. I wish I had the strength of character to recognize when I’ve had a toxic dose of it and step away asap. 🫤

jaycanuck23.bsky.social•514 days ago

I wish I did this today

bjc860.bsky.social•514 days ago

Yesterday and Saturday for me.

ethanjacobs.bsky.social•514 days ago

What’s agitating me on social media this week isn’t silly shit though.

lexlanham.bsky.social•514 days ago

same, but I think the advice mostly still applies

baniboi13.bsky.social•514 days ago

This what I've been sayin

Sickos meme but it’s me looking in the window at myself on the internet.

lindaksienkiewicz.bsky.social•514 days ago

Best advice I’ve seen in a long time!

rickhavoc.bsky.social•514 days ago

How much is your time worth? Yeah, that.

moab-bombadil.bsky.social•514 days ago

I go nuts every time I remember the grandma on nextdoor that wants to buy a print newspaper for the day her grandchild was born. What the hell is your grandchild going to see in there that you're not ashamed of?!?

So yeah, good advice.

mlex.bsky.social•514 days ago

IRL stuff is cool, too. this weekend I went to a botanical garden with a tropical greenhouse!

rincewind.run•514 days ago

it's also okay to talk about silly things and not engage, if you think that's something you can manage

you don't have to express your opinion about everything

you don't have to fight

foxy99.bsky.social•514 days ago

How very dare you!

ruemcclammyhand.bsky.social•514 days ago

so true micah
