-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Ymmv but for those of you who put your clocks ahead (but automatically adjust the tine in your head), try putting them behind. Knowing it's slow may cause a bit more urgency.
I found that putting them set exactly to the second to the atomic clock forces me to mentally create buffer time and get places on time.
Setting the clocks ahead gave me a mental assumption of “don’t worry you always have extra time !” And I imagine that setting them all behind would similarly lead me to disregard the reality of the clock.
But setting it precisely on time lets me know that this is real, there are no tricks going on, and I alone have to plan for enough time to do stuff or be places
