Re:CO2 shortage: Lessons learned from a storm in a pint glass? by mercer on Monday July 09, 2018 @05:20PM (#17493512)
Pff, don't get me started :).

My approach has been, for about the past decade or two, to spend a lot of time, energy, and possibly happiness, on figuring out how to blend in and be inoffensive. I'm not entirely sure it was worth it, but at least I feel it's allowed me to be my 'authentic' self without being dismissed in many situations, so that's something. And there are even times when I feel validated, which I think is quite valuable. We're social creatures ultimately, most of us anyways.

Considering my uncertainty about this approach, though, I shouldn't be lecturing others!

Best thing I did was read the book of Proverbs (KJV), FWIW.

I've read the NIV version multiple times (as well as the equivalent in my language). thanks for the reminder to check it out again :).

I've enjoyed that as well, I used to read it when I eas younger. Now I've just read the ESV2 version of the last few chapters in parallell with my native language during the last few days. :-)
