       @rolle These are lovely animations! I definitely prefer ⭐ - not for aesthetic reasons, but because it has more room for people to use as they see fit. ❤️ has one fairly unambiguous meaning, whereas ⭐ is flexible enough to be used in different ways by different people. (It pained me when Twitter switched from star to heart: it no longer fitted my usage, at least some of the time. Sometimes I do mean "like" but sometimes it's "huh, interesting", or just marking something I might want to find again)

       @clive The first time I had a red bull I experienced perfect photographic memory for an hour or so (it was before an exam at uni, and I found I could visualise my notes so clearly I could "read" them in my mind). It happened that first time, and never again after that (subsequently it just seemed like an unremarkable, overly sweet caffeinated drink). Very strange.
