Gathering thoughts…
A world of little thoughts.
Have you ever come across a woman who stole your heart from the moment you first laid eyes on her? I met her two weeks ago. A blazing soul that seared away any remnants of my past lovers. She laughs at my jokes. She blushes when I flirt. When I offer chocolates she declines once and then accepts. I told her she was…
Another one from The Underground Press: === anon8858 The official date and location for the upcoming public appearance of General Federico Rodriguez were announced this morning. As usual, we expect the government to use a lot of acarreados to simulate a massive turnout. After two years of hiding from the public, we…
i wish we had better trains, better role-models, better air, better coping mechs, and higher risk-appetite what if i continue using this as twitter and not create anything of value what th hell
A lot of times we made decisions and kinda regret them But that doesn’t mean that we’re making the wrong decisions A lot of the time I was anxious, feeling not like myself because of money I was an avoidant I didn’t want to embrace my feelings But take all that emotions in And learn how to deal with pain That’ll bring…
Indians have fell in love with historical fiction. Not the one where fiction incorporates historical elements but the one where fiction is served up as history. And we gobble it all up as reality and consider ourselves smarter for having done so. It's a selective exercise in being a highbrow audience & a demonstration…
codeberg.org merupakan website remote yang cukup customable dengan keamanan privasi yang ditingkatkan (klaim dari codeberg.com). Aku mulai menggunakan codeberg belum lama ini yang dikhususkan untuk hal-hal pribadi, sedangkan github aku khususkan untuk dokumentasi tugas kuliah atau proyek yang mengharuskan menggunakan…
as current AI tools develop and more people use them. i have noticed subtle consistencies that pop up in stable diffusion. finding the consistencies and adapting them will be the difference from the average user to a unique user. one of the more obvious consistency are poses for portrait images. there are only a few…
Start slow. Then whenever you progress you’ll learn along the way to make it the best - that’s also a way of starting: when you start to do, you start to learn as well! Never be afraid of starting. Being procrastinating isn’t going to anywhere. It’s not a good system. It kills you slowly, laying on the bed rather than…
Ever heard that saying? Course you have. Ever seen something genuinely new despite spending every day of your life on the internet seeing things that are little reworkings of things that have been done before? Sometimes yeah. This car thing is new to me. Look at it go!…
I always thought that I was flexible, could adapt well, and thrive in the newest of environments. But with the speed at which the entire digital landscape around us is changing, I'm not so confident anymore. Having always tied my worth to my productivity, what if I'm not relevant anymore? Another thing that worries me…
Hoje começo este novo projeto, que me convida a escrever um texto por dia durante um ano. Não tenho um objetivo master ao criá-lo, além do de cuspir palavras ao vento, contar pra mim mesmo e para você (oi, tudo bem? que saudades que eu tava de conversar com você) sobre a minha vida, pra ver se entendo melhor o que…
Uma das minhas metas de ano novo é voltar a escrever. Simples assim. Sem nenhuma frequência específica, com tema livre. Apenas com o objetivo de exercitar a mente, organizar os pensamentos e ter pequenos registros dos meus dias. Ainda estou lembrando aos poucos como que eu fazia isso, quais processos mentais eu tinha…
After an intense day, I just sat down to write today's post on Nicheless. While reflecting on my day, I have noticed, that all I did today was rushing from one task to the other - getting a lot of stuff done but never standing still, breathing in the moment. So instead of taking the time and coming up with something…
I keep looking here, but there's nothing here. I can't look away. I come here without thinking. When I realize I've been lassoed again, I feel shame for it. And then I stay, as though I am not the one who is feeling that shame. My mind is divided against itself. Some day, I will look back and realize that this place…
O título do texto anterior ficou estranho. É porque eu coloco o título antes mesmo do texto. E quando eu comecei, eu queria falar sobre pessoas que vivem com câncer... E que é uma doença cada vez mais comum por conta do estilo de vida humano. Não estou culpando pessoalmente ninguém. Estou falando que os…
I am in the fortunate position that opportunities have consistently come my way over the years without deliberate planning on my part. Rather than meticulously strategizing every move, I've gone with the flow, relying on my instincts to guide my decisions when opportunities arise. Key to this approach has been my open…
I tried my hand at cold emailing for the first time in November last year. I was greatly inspired by Shatakashi, GGI and her noble cause to provide quality Business and Policy education to young adults. I reached out to her mentioning how her content on LinkedIn helped me gain a lot of perspective and expressed my…
is that bad? i want him to read marie calloway bc i think he could really relate and really love it and it'll convince him to live the life that i want for him [i see him as the robert to my patti smith, the edie sedgwick to my andy warhol, and the andy warhol to my edie sedgwick] whenever i'm around him or recall our…
Eu vi Erycah Badu. Cara, que intensa. Ela é o tipo de pessoa que se fizesse uma seita, eu seria a primeira a entrar. Bruxona, catártica, muito além da mente. Ganhei o show de graça numa promoção do Instagram e não tava botando fé, mas rolou de verdade. Cheguei e falaram que meu nome não estava na lista, mostrei…
why is it so hard to communicate and be understood? i feel like this is the hardest thing we have to do as humans.
hoping for a universal salvation. hoping that up and above, his mercy is so immense, that though every human soul, when even when they repent, is forgiven and chooses salvation. yet when every human soul is forgiven, teachings are useless and what they preach is disregarded as every sin is still forgiven, no matter…
Well, it finally started. Winter is upon us. After a long day of 30-degree weather, we finally received our first dusting of snow and I couldn't be happier. I was born in Hawai'i. And up until we moved to Simsbury, I fancied myself a beach boy, a beach bum, a beach something. Whatever the case, my paradise was the sun…
Hmm. This morning, I was thinking to myself that we use too many apps anyways, and now, I'm thinking of building another one. But then, I find myself excited to see what lies ahead. Also, it depends on the time of day. In the mornings, I am more open to screen-time, but by the evening, it gets too much.
I did not expect this one: === anon8858 It’s finally happening. General Rodriguez will make a public appearance for the first time in 2 years. This is the longest time a public official has been outside of the public eye. Last year, the rumors of his death were the top conspiracy theory in the country. These rumors…
It's a boy who discovers he's a wizard. A young woman who takes her sister's place in a faraway, dystopian death contest. For our people-obsessed brains, the twists and turns are built around people, not situations or events. None of it works without a compelling character to draw you into the story's world. There are…
I've always had a predilicition for writing. While others had debating & mooting in law school, i had writing. Be it formal boorish academic writing or bouncy ridiculous writing. Nicheless perhaps seems ideal owing to its limited word limit which places less onus on me to produce a grand blog piece with characters, an…
My birthday is February 14. I have a week to decide what gift I should ask for that is going to define my life. Snowboard pants? A raspberry pi to run a Bitcoin full node? My wife asked me what she should nudge the kids to get me: post-apocalyptic graphic novels or a young adult lit book in Spanish. These are the…
and who teach me how to love things i met a girl who loves to cook and garden and by hanging out with her, or maybe by cooking with her, i grew to LOVE cooking and just hearing her talk about gardening made me love gardening more i had a friend in hs who was an Arts & Culture Self-Guided Exploration Master and she…
I recently saw a photo on LinkedIn of someone I met a few years ago. I felt an unexpected resistance to respond, that moment sparked a deeper thought. At any stage of life, you hold a certain view of yourself and often assume that others see you the same way. I call this a self-image snapshot: a frozen perception of…
A movie is like a person. Not everyone likes any one person. Not everyone understands that person. But there are always people who love that person despite all his inherent flaws and understands why he is the way he is and accept it all. That is enough for that one person.
This was it. A day off after several months of parenting, working under pressure, side-hustling, managing the house, and doing all the third shift admin if my life. Finally I get to have some reprieve. A momentary escape. It was planned. I looked forward to it, after arranging for childcare and making a ton of…
We often look to this quote with fondness and admiration. We often use this quote to inspire and motivate. For a new skill. For a promotion. For a healthier lifestyle. Yet we are often baffled and surprised when we see the other side of the same coin. The ugliness of how negative small changes can add up too. For…
The dark elf is a political type. He (and it's almost always a he) is a member of the privileged class, either by birth or by wits. All the opportunities for success were made available to him. The social graces, mannerisms, and noble lies of the elite were inculcated in him from a young age. All of the social…
Have you ever have conversations You think you wants to be ready before And you slight regretted you only get to think of what you think and should’ve said One minute after what you said. You can only be ready When you keep thinking about it When your mind is occupied about the thing You can’t let yourself caught off…
Below are some of the easiest ways to alleviate the moments where you feel doubtful or desperate. - Write exactly what you feel on a piece of paper. Trash it - Clean your cupboard. Iron your clothes while listening to music. - Call up a friend you haven't spoken to in a while - Take a piece of paper, and just…
I woke up today and found out that Azuki, a project that I've been bullish on since I discovered them has airdropped me 4 NFTs worth (currently on the market) 3ETH each. For believing in this project since the beginning, I got rewarded 40K... just like that. Feels like something that only happens in the NFT space. But…
I got a lot into productivity over the last few years. Trying desperately to be productive. Following all hacks and methods. But there's a theory, the more consciously you try to improve something, the worse you are at it. Imagine you are driving, if you consciously try to drive better, your brain turns off auto-pilot…
A rule I like to use when deciding how to behave is to imagine myself from another person’s point of view. Would I engage with myself if I saw myself doing that, or being that way? It’s a way to get feedback without needing anybody else, and although not ideal, it’s a good place to start. Recently, I’ve been wanting…
The comfort zone is a deceptive piece of shit that keeps trying to stop me from having formative experiences. Although I am aware of this, it hits me every time and each time it costs me a great deal of effort to overcome it. The good news is that the comfort zone expands with every new experience, when seeking…

Knowledge of self Mindset Positive Affirmations Processing Thoughts and Reflection But where do you start? The magic of journaling is it doesn’t matter. Journal what you feel. Ask yourself these questions: Do…
22nd I have realised my intense need for validation for the past hurt that I have gone through. That has been further magnified because Nelson does not agree with what I say and that makes me doubt my self confidence so much. So I have been actively seeking validation. I’ve been looking for evidence backing what I…
I started fruit farming a year ago in Lamjung, located in central Nepal. Aim is to reach 100,000 fruit trees. Currently I am at 3000. Biggest challenge facing so far is getting right saplings. Now making nursery to grow my own saplings. Its amazing here. Peace, quite and all forested area. Right on the road, but very…
To quote John Biggs: "Ok now what." Seriously though, I like this vast empty space with just a black text thing. Good stuff.
Do we chase happiness or Do we just chase comfort? Do we enjoy Novelty or Do we just accept self created change? Do we want praise or Do we just want to be accepted by all?
Time feels right to get my will paperwork in order. Did up my list of "who gets how much". Still have to mull end of life issues, and won't put it off forever, but nothing pressing right yet. Felt good last night being part of a family of choice. Wondering why I'm still hesitant about taking the big trip in September.…
Know how to say no Why people don’t give a shit about what you say Because you don’t have the balls to say what you want to say And also you keep focusing on smaller cheapskate solutions If you want to say no at a last minute cancellation The trouble seems harder Of course it would take longer and harder to say once…
For two hours, I have been sitting on the second landing of the staircase in my home, staring at a space between two steps that lead upstairs. Everything is in its right place. I feel sad. But my mind feels warm, supported, and unburdened. I am safe. This place is as true as any other. Everything is here. Everyone is…
Greetings, Today was a fun day, although I didn't get much work done. I had some enjoyable moments and really liked the way I spent my time. I feel that today is a day I will remember, as it marks the beginning of my journey to follow in the footsteps of Dante. I want to enter the "Hell". I was never disciplined or…
