Sorry. @robertsburton.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I was once at a silent disco in a train museum, one of the ones where there are two *ahem* tracks to select between, with 2 DJs. One was playing dance-pop, the other mostly soul bangers, and the crowd's choice somewhat divided on age lines. The younger ones thought we'd gone mad when this dropped. 163

Reposted by Greg MarkwardtNyil @nyil.bsky.social · 12/07/2026I’d like to add that frustration tolerance is good to learn just so you can learn new skills generally. Learning new skills can be extremely frustrating. For example, art was so hard for me at first, I’m just really stubborn so I stuck with it and eventually learned something after a few years. 05517
