Ask Bella

I don't know of any setting to keep you from going blind.
I sit in the shade with my laptop - usually on the covered porch.
And I wear sunglasses when I go outside in the summer.

Try that and see if it helps.

[Eldora, Oracle of Alchemy]

It's a weird day, cloudy, but bright.  I am sitting in the shade, but I am facing the sun.  I have my sunglasses on, which helped a bit.  Part of the problem is my son had a playdate yesterday with a little boy and they have a hot tub.  We sat in it for a ocuple of hours, it is just the right size pool for 4 year old boys, I guess.  Anyway, I got a little sunburn, so I put some of that blue aloe gel on and put on a white Tshirt.  The relection of the white is part of the problem.  Next time I will wear black, I only have about 20 or 30 black shirts, so I am sure I can find one, hehehe

Bella, why has there been an upsurge in scrid-ophobic violence?

Dear Pope Mang,

It's been my experience that scrid-ophobic violence is based on fear - as is any other violence-provoking phobia. Some people are scared of spiders - so they mash them. Some people, like moi, fear the dark - so they kill it with candlelight.

In the case of our sweet little scrid, I'd say they're scared that the scrid is 1,000,000 X cooler than they are. This is, of course, a very rational fear. Not to mention,  they're right - he is cooler than they are. So they attack him to make themselves feel better.

It breaks my heart.  

It breaks mine, too.

Dear Bella,

-Mal

Dear Malaul,

That's because you're a sensitive soul with a heart about 23,000 X bigger than the average heart. And because you are by nature a peacemaker. But always being nice can be a burden and it's okay to put that burden down sometimes, Mal.

Okay, Buster! Hand over that stick right now!
