Worked fine for me. Wasn’t paywalled.

Yeah, the time change always messes me up more than I think it should. I wish we would just stop it altogether.
Not anymore. Used to have both and deleted them as data mining and mishandling became more prevalent as the user experience declined. Now I’m only on Lemmy and barely on LinkedIn.
I decided to watch Arrival tonight. It’s great so far! I’m glad they captured the sense of awe and uncertainty well. I’m about halfway through (intermission now - taking a snack break).
This is making me want to go back and read them again. They seem like the kind of stories I might get even more out of the second time around.
“Liking What You See: A Documentary” really stuck with me. I think about it a lot when I see what people have done to themselves due to Hollywood, marketing, beauty industry, instagram, TikTok, etc.
Yes, I read it as part of a collection of his short stories. I enjoyed the philosophical conundrums in all of them.
Yep, I have shorter ones for more casual outfits and full length for dressy events. They never seem “costumey” when they go with the overall look. I’m a woman in a metro area though.
The “We Were Here” series.
Hello from Denver where it was 70 degrees yesterday, and is supposed to be 68 today. This ain’t right.

Do your peacocks only exist in one dimension?
Is this the same one that weighs as much as an adult rhino? If so, I’m not sure I trust NASA on the peacock to rhino conversion factor.
Not having kids.
A free one from the library called Kanopy and F1TV.
Look up the cultural practice / philosophy of “hygge” it’s basically meant to answer this (but extends beyond just winter months too).
This has quotes from the OG Stoics that are then interpreted for modern life with a paragraph or two. I don’t fully subscribe to every interpretation, but at least it keeps me mindful in my own way.
A second thing I do when I get easily annoyed is to stop and ask myself if I’m tired, hungry, or burned / stressed out about something else. If so, I try to find one small thing in my control I can do to improve my situation. Usually by doing one thing I’m “in control” of it helps me not get so frustrated with the things beyond my control. Even if it’s just realizing that if I clean up a mess an hour later, it’s not the end of the world.
I guess the shortest answer to your question is by keeping a much bigger perspective on life.

Learning, studying, and embracing Stoicism has really helped me. I find The Daily Stoic by Ryan Holiday helps keep it top of mind for me. It’s a bit of a pop philosophy book, but it works for me.
It may encourage others to try it.
