OSCAR: I hate a friendly divorce. A lawyer is never entirely comfortable with a friendly divorce, any more than a good mortician wants to finish his job and then have the patient sit up on the table.
Jean Kerr (1922–2003) American author and playwright [b. Bridget Jean Collins]

I salute the man who is going through life always helpful, knowing no fear, and to whom aggressiveness and resentment are alien. Such is the stuff of which the great moral leaders are made who proffer consolation to mankind in their self-created miseries.

Laws Every Scout Should Know
Being a Scout means more than camping, hiking, and earning merit badges. Scouts are also expected to be good citizens who understand the rules and laws that help keep our communities safe and fair. While Scouts are not expected to be lawyers, learning about important laws can help them become informed and responsible leaders. 1. The Scout Law and the Law of the Land The Scout Law teaches Scouts to be Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, […]https://troop161ma.wordpress.com/2026/06/26/laws-every-scout-should-know/

A quotation from Abraham Lincoln
When the conduct of men is designed to be influenced, persuasion, kind, unassuming persuasion, should ever be adopted. It is an old and a true maxim, that a “drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.” So with men. If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey that catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the great high road to his reason, and which, when once gained, you will find but little trouble in convincing his judgment of the justice of your cause, if indeed that cause really be a just one.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Speech (1843-02-22), Temperance Address, Washington Temperance Society, Second Presbyterian Church, Springfield, IllinoisMore info about this quote: wist.info/lincoln-abraham/4516…

Who here feels like they are subjectively too NICE? Or that it might be better for themselves to be less NICE? 🙂

Interessant ist das Gedankenexperiment, was genau bei einem weiter abgesenkten insgesamten Testosteron-Niveau der Menschheit passieren würde.
Auch, ob wir uns das "jetzt schon" leisten können.
Auch, ob wir uns das bisherige Niveau "jetzt noch" leisten können.

@junglegeorge
I may confirm that ZAR has been the nicest country I have ever been to when it comes to smiles, good mood and friendliness. Way forward!
And then you come back to Germany, everyone is in a grumpy mood, foreigners would be told to learn German first before being allowed to address *anything* (preferably by potatos who speak broken German themselves) and I'd be interested to learn where Germany ended in this ranking - last position?Exception proves the rule.

I had forgotten what the internet used to be like 20 or more years ago.
But it's just occurred to me that a couple of hours ago I asked a bunch of random strangers a fairly random question (about repairing a broken watch) and quickly got back multiple helpful and informative replies.
This is what the net used to be like, back in the days of usenet and email lists and the early web forums. And most people have probably never experienced it at all, their impression of social media being very different from those of us here on the Fediverse.
PS: It's probably very unfair to call you "random strangers". Even in just the 18 months I've been here I've found and chatted with people I'm happy to call friends, even though I've never met them face-to-face.

📌 Every week, we highlight an #openaccess #ebook from our collection. This week’s pick:
"An introduction to #friendliness (mettā): #Emotional #intelligence and freedom in the Pāli discourses of the #Buddha" 🌺🤝🕊️ by Andrea Sangiacomo.
🔗 https://books.ugp.rug.nl/index.php/ugp/catalog/book/86
📜 Friendliness, or mettā in the Middle Indo-Aryan liturgical language of Pāli, is understood as an attitude of #goodwill and non-aversion towards all sentient beings, including oneself.

CW: Alcohol
I don't get drunk easily and I would never allow myself to.
However, I've recently noticed that alcohol does have an effect on me, which is that I become less cynical towards people.
That's nice from time to time, but also another reason to be careful with alcohol. It's a balancing act... -
Wir werden niemals weitere evolutionäre Fortschritte machen, wenn wir nicht anfangen, systematisch auf ALLEN Ebenen von Gesellschaft zu verhindern, dass Größere Kleinere tyrannisieren.
DAS ist "nature's law": Fortschritt/Weiterentwicklung wird nur dann möglich, wenn wir unser Gewaltproblem stabil und dauerhaft lösen.

@talia_christin. Patience with those folks.
Once they figure out how to find their tweeps here, they keep feet in both places.
I'm still in both places & everyone I follow isn't here yet. I'm excited to meet new people but not by giving up on the old. So my plan is to stay in both places until I'm satisfied important tweeps are here. I only follow 5000 pple on #birdsite.
I'm just saying be helpful. The newness & #friendliness is what makes this place nice. Let's keep it that way.

It is a distinctly friendly city, noticed it when I first moved here from Perth. Not what you expect from a big city, but there’s something in the air. An echo from Melbourne’s early prosperous gold rush years perhaps?
