Dostoevsky's Notes From Underground is a brutal attack on overthinking. The protagonist is a "modern" man getting high on his own reason. He's a coward but thinks it's ok because he can play with abstractions well. (Plot twist: it's not, in fact, ok)

@jackmoses0 I have found the Motivation Code even better than Meyers Briggs. The Motivation Code is so precise in locating your enduring motivators. And Kathy Kolbe’s Conation testhelped me to name even more ways I am different from others. Yes, it’s so liberating to finally meet yourself.

Instead of taking accountability, Doug Ford and the Conservatives are throwing their subordinate down the stairs for the #GreenbeltScandal.

Imagine any organization in the world where an underling could wrap-up an $8.3 BILLION deal without the CEO and VP knowing!

JAN ZWICKY from Thirty-seven Small Songs (Gasperau Press) —a sudden unconscious jesture and its afterthought. An aspect of the “real world” suddenly clarifies in us, clarifies us. Lyric paradigm, paradigm of self-questioning answered by the event. Epiphany⁦@RevAnneCapeAnn⁩

With Telus acquiring two more ISPs and the Rogers-Shaw merger imminent, @FP_Champagne and @CRTCeng must act to save what little telecom competition is left.

Nature's magnificence and healing touch solaces hearts & raises spirits. When the world's loudness leaves you silent, nature's quietness opens your heart to happiness. From nature around my cabin in the wilderness of the Yukon, I'm sending joy, healing, warmth, hope & positivity.

[Gurdeep Pandher of the Yukon @GurdeepPandher]

It snows about 7-8 months a year in the north. I have to do this about 6-7 times in 24 hours when it snows. Now you can calculate how many times I remove snow from my deck every year. Good exercise, eh? Besides the winter workout, I'm sending you warmth, joy, hope and positivity.
