No, they’ll get a job in the current administration. Probably some new rapey department. Maybe they’ll be the successors to Epstein.

I love the idea of dumping stuff into Monday and then dealing with it when you get there.

I overscheduled myself out too much in advance and I never stick to that schedule, which adds to the feeling of failure/defeat. Especially for both my work and work style, I think dumping it somewhere (like the coming Monday) and then sorting it out when I get there may work better.

Appreciate your post!

Perfect, thank you!

I currently use a plain old brown bound journal for occasional reflective writing and there’s something about the physical act of pen to paper that helps me calm down so this may be the way. I’ll check out the book.

Do you have any readings/resources you’d recommend on this?

Right now I’m using TickTick but I loaded it up with so many things, most of which will be abandoned and never cleaned up. Eventually my lists will get too messy and I’ll abandon the software. And the cycle continues lol

It’s only further deepening our world’s dependence on tech companies.

Once large swathes of infrastructure and services are being developed and maintained by AI driven development, now all those companies are dependent on AI. Now they function at the whim of the AI companies. It’s the same issue we’re running into with cloud service dependence.

I will never understand how people could be this rich and do stupid shit like this.

With all that money, you could go find the love of your life, travel the world with them, pay for all the mental and healthcare you need, be fit and live the rest of your life happily with your soulmate AND still even have the capacity to help others if you so desire.

But instead they do this shit. I hate reality.

This comparison isn’t exactly 100% accurate, but I think of it like

“I want peace on Earth”

“I don’t want to put in the work to get that” or “I don’t want all life to go extinct”

One is a means, the other is a goal.

But yeah I’m the same way, my therapists have always understood the distinction though lol

Fuck that school, their behavior is what allows this kind of thing to continue and turns these asshole kids into asshole adults… and then we end up with modern day US.

This is exactly why I started doing it lol. I was getting depressed on days where it felt like I was so busy and overwhelmed but I felt like I accomplished nothing.

Nah I wasn’t suggesting he’s innocent, I haven’t invested myself enough to form an opinion and the details seem murky and all over the place.

I was genuinely just curious if that could’ve been a South Park search lol.

And if it isn’t (and to your point, even if it is), why would someone technically savvy who knows they’re on probation and under surveillance perform that search?

Was he probing to look for alerts or flags that went off for risky searches? Was it someone else on his device messing with him? Was he just being cheeky? Was he being sketchy?

There’s too many possibilities and hence I’m not really suggesting he’s innocent or guilty.
