I
If you are not nice on the internet, you are not nice, period.
The comments you post, the way you treat people, the content you access and the content you amplify says something about YOU.
The REAL you. Not some virtual version of you.
You are you are you.
Whether you’re at you grandma’s kitchen table or Instagram.
If you leave a mean comment about someone on an anonymous message board, you are mean.
If you’re rude in the comments of someones Instagram post, you’re rude.
If you pop off on Facebook at every post that doesn’t reflect your exact world view, you’re belligerent.
Think how you want to be in this world and then be it.
Online, at the park, in the class room, at work.
You are you are you.
Be kind.
Be polite.
Comminicate with nuance.
Allow for nuance in others communication.
Lead with empathy.
This was shared on @inexactscience’s Instagram feed last week. It is so true that I thought I would share it with you. I hope you will share it too.
3 eggs
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp olive oil
1/2 cup diced zucchini
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and salt , until the eggs are a uniform color. In an oven safe frying pan, heat olive oil. Add zucchini, cook and stir until crisp tender, 2-3 minutes. Pour the beaten eggs into the frying pan and cook, without stirring, until the bottom is set around the edges, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the frying pan to oven. Bake 5 minutes or until the egg is set. Turn out onto a plate and cut into wedges. You can substitute any vegetable or combination of vegetables, add maet, or add spices to make it your own.
