For me, it has mango.

The first time I had mango, I ate it with the peel on.

It tasted like pine trees. 🤢

Years later, I tried it again without the peel.

And now it's one of my favourites! 😜

I was missing out! 🫠

What's a flavor you thought was disgusting, then tried it again and suddenly learned that you liked it? 🤔

#ClearingMyMind with some random #freeform text:

I went into #Mastodon and I learnt more about myself.

Or so I said to myself, repeating the mantra again and again

I know more about myself now than I knew before.

My #SelfKnowledge has reached its peak. My #WordSalad has also reached it peak.

I'm on top of mount #SelfInterest it feels good to be up here with all the #StrongWinds blowing in my face

This highlights how we all need to be super informed about our health and bodies and to become 'expert patients'. As we lumber towards a probable insurance based private healthcare system in the UK, it is even more important to know your onions - or your breasts, ovaries, testes etc. as profit driven models will only look for what you've paid them to look for.

I think conservatives, centrists, and liberals equivocating and being unable to articulate a vision without tripping over their own language is part of the reason we can’t have nice things.

Generalized lack of self-confidence, self-awareness, and self-knowledge (“I have conviction on these things for these reasons and here is why”) is endemic.
