G'day from Australia :)

Social media trends to be a harsh place. Getting down voted and argued with can be quite jarring and distressing - especially when you're coming from a position of honest curiosity and are met with hostility. The written word can amplify this as text lacks some of the nuance that a real conversation has.

Not everyone is a bad person. You might need a break from social media now and then to reset.

You might also be an HSP like me - see https://youtu.be/TPR1P_D8zjY - gives us some unique challenges.

I'm not sure which is the 'nicest' country. I've asked myself this a few times. So far New Zealand seems to be the winner, but that's based on one visit only.

That would only matter if you had a democracy. You voted to end democracy, remember?

There's an episode of Graham Norton that she's on. She talks about how they approached those two eccentric dancers to be part of the clip.

As a rider who has a 300 watt ebay front drive wheel jammed into the slot on the front fork where the old quick release front wheel went, I do occasionally worry that at some point it's gonna go pniaow, and the bike will plow fork-first at 30kph (16mph) into the ground, suitably ejecting its 72kg (¾ mean US adult) and 24v 20Ah Lithium Polymer battery in a conical arc.

How strong are those aluminium slots?

Is that a Graham Kennedy reference?

.. Who in turn stole it from a monopoly board and turned green orange.

You might just need two versions. The full colour one where the underlying medium supports it well, and a mono version for more restrictive media.

It's just an option on many WordPress templates - asks for your social URLs but I don't know if any tracking happens natively as a result.
