Friday

I use DU and Hacker News to curate news for me.

I choose what to read (that's the purpose of an aggregator!) and that's fine with me.

My feelings and sources are entirely under my control. It's liberating.

AND I GET TO REPLY with insightful (and sometimes fun) comments.

You can imagine the q)(#&$* replies that TV and radio "inspire"

I was in the service, and learned the joys of salty language.

No need here, nor on Hacker News.

And have a peaceful day!
