Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
9/9: useful turn of phrase
I learned a Polish saying today: "Not my circus, not my monkeys." It is perfect for (too) many occasions. When those occasions arise, just saying it to myself will make me smile.
Love it! I'm going to use that - with my 'inside' voice... hopefully. ;)

Hi, April! I think I'm going to have to learn how to say it in Polish for those times when I just can't keep it on the inside.
