B) another dollop of oath-meal:

first, do no harm.

also, if you are doing some harm, stop doing that harm.
never too late to do less harm in the future.
finally, do no harm.
i love you.²

C) OathMG!:

PS finally, please enjoy this photo of my friend Dalia Malek’s dog Cisco. Dalia was my most recent Broccoli and Ice Cream podcast guest, and there were a few audio dog cameos, so i asked to get some visuals to match those audibles, and here is one of them! a delight!

1. when i shared this on twitter, a nice fan wrote back “and robots!”
and i second that.

2. when i shared THIS on twitter, a nice fan wrote back “it's impossible to do no harm. It is always possible to do less harm.”
and i second THAT.

3. “to nom” is to eat.
e.g. cookie monster says things like “nom nom nom” when he’s eating.
positive self-talk.
he is a nice monster.
another creature that’s like a nice monster is ET (the extra-terrestrial).
and now, with all those ingredients, i offer this palindrome that a person might say in response to someone seeing extra-terrestrials eat and calling them a monster:
”monster? ETs nom!”
