I, personally, like to take the opportunity to express aspirations: not just trying to stop doing things I feel are harmful, but also to try new things or practice positive things more. A couple from me:
- Avoid sarcasm when dealing with people, especially strangers, it does not go over well when they don’t get the joke
- Do something positive, helpful, and non-criminal to counter the right wing political trend. (granted, this one needs more detail)
How about you?
How does one go about touching more turtles? We have plenty of snapping turtles in the area but I think trying to touch them would be risky.
Zoos, pet stores, mascots. Always with express permission, always wash hands after. Never touch wild turtles, always touch captive turtles very gently on the shell.
