My Personal Motto "Remain calm, be kind, and carry on regardless!" The first two are from Seneca & the Stoics via Colin Powell. The last is a British expression that I think is associated with WWII when the bombs were falling all around.

Amazing little historical fact...
As a kid I followed all of the #Apollo #Moon missions with great interest, especially the drama and heroism of #Apollo13. But I missed this bit of "life-saving, on-the-fly, found object #engineering to save your life".
"Aldrin said the pen used to fix a broken circuit-breaker helped him and Neil Armstrong to return to the Earth."

History Major. Cripple. Vaguely Left-Wing. In pain and constantly irritable. Sorry to anyone I didn’t DM goodbye. I sorted people very ‘ad hoc’, and my own spotty focus and memory didn’t help. I recognized a lot of users in my time on here, and most of you I enjoyed very much. I think, in particular, I forgot some Slrpnk users. Good luck, going forward. o7
