A quotation from Richard Steele
Whenever you commend, add your reasons for doing so; it is this which distinguishes the approbation of a man of sense from the flattery of sycophants and admiration of fools.
Richard Steele (1672-1729) Anglo-Irish writer, journalist, playwright, politician
Essay (1713-04-08), The Guardian No. 24More about this quote: wist.info/steele-richard/27436…

The Wound as Diploma
A transcript arrived this week: five signs of "traumatic intelligence," clipped from a video and passed along as science. The research record tells a different story, and the difference matters. A reader sent me that transcript. It came without a link, without a channel name, without an author, the way most things travel now, and it ended in the middle of a sentence: "Sign five. Consider this for a moment. Everything you've heard so far, the perceptiveness, the empathy, the analytical mind, these are not weaknesses dressed up as strengths." Then nothing. The clipboard closed before the payoff arrived. That dead cut turns out to be the most honest moment in the whole document, and I want to show you why. The reader's question was whether the thing could run here as an article. It can, on the table, under the lights. […] -

→ How to give a compliment
https://psyche.co/guides/how-to-give-a-compliment“I realised I was spending too much time on my phone in public, so I started making a point to compliment strangers, to help me stay grounded and bring a little joy to the world”
“Focus on what someone has chosen to show. It’s safer to compliment what one purposely does, displays or achieves than the visible characteristics they didn’t choose.”

Compliment to Mastodon - it tells you when there is a duplicate option in the voting options in a poll -
Clever and useful. I found this out just now while copying and pasting answers and had two the same - so it saved me sending a incorrect poll out and wasting people's time with 2 votes the same.

As a meteorologist, there's always a chance someone saying "nice weather" to me is a compliment, since OBVIOUSLY I'm responsible for weather that people like, but I'm NOT responsible weather they don't like. It's science.

CW: USPol - Trump, tariffs
As a consequence of these various #personality, #temperament, and #intellectual #deficits, Trump is, for a world leader, amazingly easy to #manipulate.
If you #butter him up, and suggest doing something will make him look good - well, there's a good chance he'll listen intently. He likes to listen to people telling him he's wonderful, and giving him easy ways to appear more wonderful. Much better than listening to people asking him to choose between tough or ugly choices on complicated subjects.
He's also got that tendency where he believes whatever the last person he spoke to told him. This is why people - remember those oligarchs who were literally in front-row seats at his inauguration? - want to be close to him, figuratively and literally. If you keep his #ear, you can keep him behind your needs, your ideas, your wants.
So, given all this, why the hell did he declare #economic #war on #Canada (and Mexico, and China, but I'm #Canadian) when it was:
(a) obviously a bad idea for the US and the world #economy; there will be pain, and it will hurt him - price of eggs and all that
(b) not something that was going to personally #profit him in any big way
(c) not in the interests of his #billionaire oligarchs
(d) not a primary plank in his campaign - at least not in this scorched-earth approach he's takenWhy?
