    "Tinycards" from Duolingo

    Is it a bit like Welsh, where only a small population of the locals speak it?

    By hilarious, do you mean hammy acting?

    "Tinycards" from Duolingo

    I think this forum is making my brain go pop. I can't keep up with all the discussions! I've used the Pomodoro technique. I even got a tomato timer I put on my desk. Due to my ADHD (self-diagnosed grasshopper mind), I used to cut it down to 10 minute stints. But then when I am doing something I...

    The Hexaco Personality Inventory test - take it now!

    It is sometimes hard to see your own reflection. The Hexaco test benchmarks you against others. When I took the test, I was nodding to myself while looking at the results, thinking this is the first test that seems to accurately reflect who I am. Then I got the outliers which helped me...

    I will check out the Excel at Life link, thanks. I didn't know about the washing hands one, but using common things as action triggers seems a good idea. I installed Headspace before as an app on my phone, but settled on Insight Timer instead. We have a thread on the forum about meditation. Not...

    I have a pocketful of Likes (veeeery deep pockets), but they will only used for special occasions!

    You could prep your meals and cook in bulk. Put in containers and nuke in the microwave. Time efficient.

    121 posts today!

    This is the first time we have had over 100 posts in one day. There seems to have been a bit of a feeding frenzy on here lately and the post count is racking up fast. I predict we will get to about 2,000 posts in another couple of weeks. That is good going!

    I've never slept that well. I wake up multiple times during the night. Sleep is like a skill. I envy those who do it well.

    Bee is playing politics in an open space. She is close behind because: a) I don't want a handbagging and so dole out Likes like candy, and Bee) (see what I did there?) She is deliberately withholding ticks to gain an advantage. I say ask not what you can get a tick for, but rather what ticks...

    I'll do a deal, I will give you a Like on that post if you do the same on mine.

    The balance of the cast in the original Star Trek series with Shatner was just fantastic. As a kid I loved it when it came on. The intro music, the graphics, the concept. All first class. Aye aye Captain!

    Picard was smooth. Kirk...yes, very hammy acting. But he was just the man! He performed the role superbly! I found the new Kirk a bit too cocky and arrogant. Maybe they brought him in for the ladies.

    Bee, I didn't like Janeway at all and that doesn't make me a misogynist.

    Doc, I remember that too. There was this underlying affection but superficial frustration with one another. I was only being provocative. ;)

    Who were your favourite Captains? Mine with Shatner and Picard.

    Was Bones racist? He didn't seem to like Spock much.

    Country philosopher

    Ahhh come to think of it, I did see something on the telly about that a long while back. But those links you gave are amazing! Never knew they could create an enormous tornado. From memory they were piddly little things. I also saw a demonstration of someone standing on the equator line. They...

    Uncle Gizmo, I will probably listen to a bit of Eckhart Tolle when I go to bed tonight. He is very soothing and helps you forget your worries. It sounds like your God is a very portable God. Do you meditate by any chance?
