Social Hygiene
Be very careful about the company you keep, because negative social people will spread their contagion upon you. Just like with COVID-19, we keep the 6 foot distance rule, with negative social people, keep the 600 foot social distance rule.

Blends Are Better
For example, the best coffee or coffee blends. For example, 80% arabica and 20% robust blend is best, in terms of taste, and caffeine content. Also with clothing, 100% merino wool doesn’t last very long. To have it blended with some polyester is good.

ASSUME LIKE IT WILL ALL BE RENDERED INTO BLACK AND WHITE
A thought — Assume like it will all eventually be rendered into black and white. For example, let us say the color of your car, clothes, etc. Dress and purchase/buy and design things as if they will all ultimately render in black and white. For example, disregard red. If you have a red car in…
