Yesterday, Berdine reminded me of Bud at her finest craziest.

Today, i see Jin in Nadette's smile.

Are the GGG's mentoring our cute bear girls?

[Opus the Poet]

I sympathise with Atsali's concern on this one.

Jin is Atsali's mentor. Maybe she's rubbing off on Atsali's friends too.

Nadette obviously doesn't care what other people think . . . Atsali . . . well both of them, actually, need to learn how to either deceive snoopers about things that aren't any of their business or convince them that any kind of interference or harassment about things that are none of the snoopers' business is unduly hazardous.

There's always the option of giving the snoopers and bullies and whatevers no reward for their efforts... As in, don't react at all.

It never really worked for me, it just made everything worse... The bullies and gossipmongrels (not a typo) and everyone else just tried harder and harder and harder.

I honestly don't see why the adults always swore by that strategy. Making the worst bully realize I was more dangerous than he was got everyone to leave me the hell alone right quick.

Atsali is slowly learning that to quote L. Long, freedom starts when you tell Mrs Grundy to go fly a kite.

I have had the non-reaction work . . . it requires absolute non-reaction, and even then works best against the casual fishing-for-a-reaction bullying.

For the targeted bullying, intimidation works better.

It took some people a while to realize that bad things frequently happened to people who were giving me grief . . . and having a fight with one of the toughest guys in school end in a draw with him reluctant to take me on again helped too.

That would come under unduly hazardous.

Went over the first Nether episode again the other day . . . I really hadn't realized the significance of Tara escaping with minimum trauma because of her compassion, while Jordan went through the ringer . . .

As Cricket informed Atsali: be compassionate. Apparently the Nether sort of reflects things back at you, in an embodiment of Matthew and Luke's "Golden Rule".

Except for when Atsali visits the place, whereupon she seems to just break the system.

So, it's a case of the Rule Golden?



Ha! let's see someone top that obscure sci-fi reference.

Oh, man... This reminds me of an episode of Deadliest Catch where one of the deckhands shouts "Is that all you got?" at the Bering Sea.
A massive wave promptly crashes into and over the ship, sending everyone sliding all over the deck.
