Friendly reminder that we all make spelling and grammatical errors on occasion. These errors don’t undermine the power of our words. Pointing out others’ mistakes, no matter how kindly, is unhelpful and unnecessary.

My son reminded me: "Just because you don't know your impact, doesn't mean your not having one." It took 20 years for Pauli Murray to learn that it was their legal strategy that led to the end of segregation. Let that sink in. Your effort matters more than you'll ever know.

but they were all of them deceived, for another die was made. In the fires of Mount Doom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master die, to control all others. And into this die he poured all his cruelty, his malice and his will to dominate all life. One die to rule them all.

Obsessed with this. Incredible show based on an incredible book.

Just realised I can change foreign shows on Netflix from dubbed to the original language with subtitles. My sick day has improved considerably!

Cake won’t solve all my problems, but it will solve the problem of not having cake.
