I've been feeling very isolated recently. I've drifted away in lots of ways from my IRL friends. When I meet new people they are generally held captive by one groupthink or the other. I want to like people but sometimes they make it hard.
I'm normally very "unix philosophy" but I've been playing around with Thunderbird (or more accurately a fork of it) and it feels kinda nice to have my email, calendar, RSS, contacts, Matrix and Telegram all in one application. Feels very early-web-2.0 - very 2011. Idk why.
Is geddit down?
Why is it that the smallest online spaces feel the least lonely?
I long to get out of the cubicle and make my living doing something on my own schedule. I need to grt started on some projects I'm trying to get written bur this is hard when you already work full-time and have kids. Does anyone have any advice for someone trying to get out of the corporate world and into freelance work?
Today I've been thinking about how to get a heathen kindred off the ground without Facebook (which unfortunately seems to be where ALL local organization happens nowadays). Do I put an ad on Craigslist? I don't think anyone would respond, lol
I've been sick since Friday and spending several days sick at home always fills me with the strangest cabin fever. It's difficult to explain and even more difficult to remedy.
I'm looking for PeerTube recommendations - does anyone have any?
Self-improvement is a long-term war of attrition against your worst self. You need to be tired of your own bullshit. You're gonna fuck up, but the important part is to never give up and never give the worst self free reign again. War against the worst self, always.
Do you ever look back at your past self and cringe?
