        You don't have to entertain every crackpot that comes along. Mute, block, ignore... Don't let time vampires wear you down. #solidarity

        You need a social media manager. Time to give the child extra responsibility? She can forward links to irrelevant material to time wasters.

        We must help Helen. Evetytime she can't help herself, you say something bad about tea. Everytime she resists, you offer tea and chocolate.

        Letting others dictate your mood is a mindset problem. Change your mindset and the outlook will improve. (Currently studying, has helped me)

        As children we learn five defences, to protect ourselves from pain. As adults we can observe, unlearn and free ourselves from this pain.

        Hang in there! We can't let activists destroy science. They can only criticize, neither predict nor explain.
