“Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of
'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change.” - Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury #books #quotes
Старый дом давно ушёл под снос,
Съехали те люди, что в нём жили...
Лишь не сходят с места кот и пёс,
Всё не веря, что их тут забыли...
The old house was long ago demolished,
The people who lived there have moved out...
Only the cat and dog remain standing,
Still unable to believe they've been forgotten here...

Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories."

I ache, therefore I am.
My present brain worm aka words that I keep repeating subconsciously - “There’s nothing to do, there’s nowhere to go” #quotes #words #meditation
Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?

The new #Pachli Current supports #quoteposts notifications. You'll see if someone quoted one of your posts, or if a post you quoted has been edited.
Work in progress:
- Detach #quotes of your posts from other people's posts.
- UI to manage your quote-related preferences.
- Writing posts that quote other posts.
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
