Hi, Mastodon people!
When you post links, please consider using a https://archive.org/ (Internet Archive) link instead of the original source - at least for sites such as CBS, Fox, and anything else which harvests your data or requires your email and/or a subscription.
There's no reason to give these sites our data. The more information we can keep out of their hands the better!
The site is easy to use. Just copy a clean link from the original site and go to https://archive.org/. Paste the link into the "WAYBACK MACHINE - Enter URL or keywords" box and hit Enter. If the site has been archived, one or more links will pop up with clean versions of the site or article. If there's no copy, at least you tried!
Thanks!
Note: I replaced the original archive link with the official internet archive link instead, since I was told that some of the other links are dubious.
I guess I should also mention that the Internet Archive has a huge number of books, movies, TV shows, records, radio broadcasts, etc. - most of which are available for download as well as viewing online.
set goals for your year—whenever it starts…
There are many ways to set goals, especially for the New Year—but it doesn't have to start in January. Here's a proven approach I use.https://thedignityofman.net/2026/02/02/set-goals-for-your-year-whenever-it-starts/
prioritize your thoughts, simplify your life…
You've followed the influencers on simplifying your life. You've adopted a minimalist lifestyle, but all of it falls flat. Have you been looking at it the wrong way?https://thedignityofman.net/2025/10/06/priotize-your-thoughts-simplify-your-life/
My son and I saw "Iron Lung" at the theater tonight. Generally I prefer to wait a day or two to digest a movie before reviewing it. But I WILL say that the movie was *unbelievably* confusing.
But the instant the movie ended - before the credits even started - some idiot a few rows ahead of us turned on a flashlight and started shining it all over the place. Including into our eyes, several times.
After the third time my son yelled out "Turn off the damned flashlight!"
The flashlight guy angrily answered "The movie's OVER. I'm looking for my phone."
Son: "You've shined that thing in my eyes THREE TIMES already!"
"Mine too!" I added. "Aim it DOWN!"
Several other people in the audience chimed in at that point. He'd been pretty damned careless with the light. Maybe if there hadn't been so many of us the situation would have turned into a fight, but he chose the better part of valor.
Who brings a flashlight to a theater anyway?
The rest of the audience was nice. We all chatted a little on the way out.
There were no after-credits scenes, by the way.
The quick flash
