Why then do you sign off, Be Happy?
Is "happy" not a feeling?

As a result of letting go of the clinging, misery ends. May all beings misery come to an end.

Obladi

Amen.

I think when I live with integrity, I'm content, sometimes happy. It's during those times that I experience these magical moments. The precondition to living with integrity for me, is mental health.

And that's a whole nuther discussion.

For me, the contentment and sense of oneness with the universe that one "feels" during deep meditation is happiness in another name.

How's your sober living thing going, Obladi? I take it that means you're living with a lot of other people you barely know, like right beside them all the time. That would seem like being in prison to me.

[QUOTE=Obladi;7429636]entropy, I need you to stop picking on my friend Flipsie! She is never lame and I don't want you referring to her in those terms.

Haha. Ok I'll stop.

What's with the big question mark under my name now? It's a bit unnerving.

Obladi

We at the peer-to-peer support desk will be happy to answer your technical questions. Your call is important to us. Please hold for a few hours until we're able to get to you.

Haha. It's a little odd. Like Entropy? Or, do I exist? Or should I exist? Hello? They need to change that one. Make it less distressing. Lol.

What is distressing is the constant banging upstairs. They are tearing apart the upstairs bathroom....fricken finally. But ugh.

Honestly, remodel. Over it. Covid. Over it (you know, in the thinking about it kinda way, not the being socially responsible kinda way). Alcoholism. Over it.

I need a shower and some food.

Holy Moley, Gremlins!!<div><br></div><div>How is html making its way into my messages?</div><div><br></div><div>And why is submit quick reply saying I didn't enter a message?</div>

Grymt

The odd things went away after deleting cookies, shutting down and restarting. Tho I don't know if deleting cookies is necessary

Obladi

So apparently the only way one can make a legible post is to use text only No emoticons spacing punctuation or emoticons permitted Oh and also post anything you wish in the quick reply box because it doesnt matter what you do You will be taken to advanced posting regardless

Test re smilies

add​​​Edit
Ok smilies not working

Obladi

&nbsp;Testing 1, 2, 3&nbsp;

Obladi

Well darn I was planning to leave the esoteric realm this morning to write for awhile about how things are going in my physical space But I think the html combined with my writing style would interfere with the message quite literally A lesson in and of itself Perhaps

Grymt

Test: yes, I think you are right re text only. Though it seems ordinary punctuation works ok.?

Obladi

For you!&nbsp;<div><br></div><div>I'll try clearing cookies on my phone to see if that works...</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>

Obladi

Giving it a shot.

let's see.
Nice! Formatting is still off, but better.



also, I see auto-save is VERY frequent. I like that.

p.s. I'm on my phone with cookies cleared and phone subsequently restarted.

Grymt

Ok, goodnight for now .
