Had a great time at Fluidity Forum 2025 meeting new people and seeing again those I met in 2023. Already registered for 2026 and curious who I'll meet (again).
Missed some people from 2023 this year. Hope to see you next year.
@jtcbrule Once, when I was practicing a tricky new figure with my dance teacher, she had me imagine I was 5 years more experienced and confident in leading it, then had me do it again. Apparently this helped.
@Auduuse good to know! I never set up subs because email delivery seems expensive :P think I tried to hide it once but it is indeed visible... rip. thank you for the interest!
At a zoom meditation session recently, I had this exchange of goodbyes with the other person. We must each have said goodbye two or three times at least. I regularly end calls with friends this way too.
What's really fun is when the call seems to be heading for a close, and you half finish the goodbye, then someone adds something and so you start over again.
Who's got a high score of goodbyes in one interaction?
@jtcbrule Love the analogy and exchange
My cousin had an instructor in emergency medicine (who's also a coroner) that would not ride in a helicopter after Vietnam. "I've seen too many people die that way."
@assumptionfeast What a well-designed landing page. I feel like I'd be impressed if I were remotely in the market to pay for a factory full of robotic knife sharpeners.
@sensefulronin I like those dominos. Curious if this sounds right?
