Did you know rationality is solar?
That’s why you wake up at 3 a.m. and worry about the rent, who your kid is dating, and that weird spot on your nose. All the rationality on the planet is in China, and the Chinese are using it.
Just remind yourself of this and go back to sleep. Come morning, you’ll be rational again and the Chinese will be lying awake worrying about the rent, their kids, and their noses.

Hey, I’m pro-rational. And proved, this very day, that I can be irrational in full daylight. B
Well, of course! Everyone knows irrationality is lunar, which is why it can occur during the day, when the cycle is right. The sun, being the sol of rationality, can only be out in the day time.
muchissimas gracias, Betsy, for this splendid insight and much-needed lol
If only we could find a way to bottle it for later use, including topical application during emergencies…
…and use it to get our novels written, eh, Ken? Nice to see you here! –Betsy
