Sometimes you come across a pair that is clearly very close to each other. Observing them interact, it's unclear who is taking care of whom. The daughter still seeks to impress and seek validation, while showing her mother how things are done. The mother still instructs, but also follows instructions, probably…
attempts to break outside of a creative block i have revisited some content from mentors who i admire. it is their quotes that resonate with me. the one sticking out now is; "It’s easier to be a critic than to produce work. So the only way to get to the end means is to start the domino effect. Which is essentially put…
Today is my last day at work. Over the past 2 years, I realised for you to excel at anything, you need to give it hard work and time. All of us face the dilemma of making a decision for the future, but have very low threshold of patience. No one in this world became a star overnight. This is hard to digest but is the…
Lembre-se que todo minuto dentro da ficção custa tempo da sua vida real. Durma direito. Tome sol pela manhã. Hidrate-se. Faça uma atividade física. Caminhe. Alimente-se melhor. Escolha bem suas companhias. Semeie e cultive bons relacionamentos. Aprecie a lua. Passe mais tempo com quem te aprecia. Saiba lutar pelos…
you didn’t misread anything but how am i supposed to look you in the eye and say; the way that i am has everything and nothing to do with you? how do i tell you that i took a step back because otherwise i’d fall off the edge? so, i swallow, and type; “nothing of the sort - recently i’ve just… been in my own head”
We allow phones at our dinner table. I know that’s counterintuitive coming from someone who 14 years ago, declared, ”When we are empty-nesters, we'll still have dinner table conversation.” At the time, I wasn’t worried about phones. It was magazines. Now a phone comes out almost every evening at our dinner table, for…
One way to become a better writer is to take the same idea and try to get that idea across to different audiences. If you have a few places that you write, you might think that if you write one idea in one place, that’s good enough. A journal entry has just yourself as the audience. A technical blog has an audience…
me: i have a once in a lifetime opportunity for you seb: ok? me: do you want to hear it? seb: well they're usually scams me: so do do you still want to hear it? seb: sure me: ok, so how about when you're done making that box, you can go rinse off the deck while i dust off and vacuum down here? seb: weren't all of…
...she, anyway, doesn't know me anymore. we ended things. i couldn't stand being around her. it doesn't mean that i loved her any less. i loved her more than she loved herself. she loved me less than she loved the version of me she wanted. you see...there was our problem. i had brought this to her attention as well.…
Complexity will make you successful 不该认真的时候不要太认真 幽默才能过得更久 所以有时太认真 看清更多事实 会更难生存 (analogy - if you see every each dust in the particles you won’t feel good) Another thing is do it now. Or think it now. What is the thing that you don’t feel like doing but you think you SHOULD’VE been doing… don’t think. Just do it!
"The clear breakthrough for me Was realizing everyone I was admiring online, spent most of their time creating and engaging offline" - @hipcityreg There's a french expression that goes "goutte d'eau qui fait déborder le vase" which effectively translate to "the last drop to make the vase overflow" and that's what…
the most normal taste i have is in music. i'm really into the 1975 right now, but specifically 3 songs: - about you - robber - all i need to hear ("somebody else" is great too but it doesn't fit the vibe of those three songs i just listed that i feel is the best aspect of the band; i basically want to feel like i'm…
Acabei de assistir"secretária" Que filme incrível. E o jeito que acaba, deixa tudo melhor. Um convite para todas as mulheres que se sentem fora da norma. Sustentar o prazer é difícil! É uma dor, para você e para os outros. Como se fosse um band aid arrancado de vez. Hoje uma colega de trabalho veio almoçar em casa. O…
At this point I'm writing here only to and for myself. Which is fine. However, having an app (Android) to write it from would be a plus. Also, upon registering I received an automated welcome email from the Nicheless founder saying "feel free to get in touch and ask anything". So I replied saying how cool Nicheless…
Extractive systems exhaust resources by removing them faster than they replenish. These systems are parasitic, while regenerative systems are symbiotic. Regenerative systems protect and enrich what they depend on. Consider a few regenerative examples: - A regenerative economy would protect the natural energy systems…
So me and my love have recently started a trend of streaming movies together on Amazon Prime and one of the movies we watched recently was "Eternal Sunshine of Spotless mind". Believe me I had to google the name before typing here . Since I cannot remember the name I call it "Eternal Something Something" . My…
He came to see me, Even if I forgot. He was the inspiration, Behind every lovely shot. He always sat there, Fulfilled and lone. Beholding me gracefully, He jollied and shone. I remember spending nights, Thinking of him on my roof. I crave this gorgeous- He lives aloof. I ask the ones whom he met, Is he the same he…
Comecei uma nova série. New girl estava na minha lista ha anos. Eu conheço a atriz que interpreta Jess como cantora. Então, está sendo legal ver ela nesse papel de comédia também. Olhos grandes e azuis. Claro, a série tem uma vibe meio pick me girl. Meio "nossa como eu sou estranha e preciso da aprovação desses…

I want you to know I mean the things I say. But how can you When the things I say Are the things I am expected to say Whether I mean them or not?
There's few things I like more than a late night. There's few things I enjoy more than time with friends. There's few things I want more than to be someone. There's few things I need more than to stay healthy. There's few things I feel more than a need for money. There's few things I miss more than an adventure.…
Who am I? Well I'm just a kid, clueless about life and where I'm going to end up in this chaotic world. You can call me Sreeram, I sure go by many nicknames which let's not get into. What am I doing here? I don't know honestly. I guess I have a lot to say which may come in my later posts. You could say I'm more…
É. Não tem pra onde fugir. Não sou negacionista e mais: acredito muito na ciência, na medicina, apesar de estar cantando a música "lenda", da céu loucamente nos últimos dias. Minha dog vai ter que operar. Mas antes, dá-lhe prediderm, dá-lhe remédio pra não ter trombose, muitos exames de sangue e do coração. Ela odeia…
Gil Scott-Heron wrote a powerful poem in 1970, and recorded it into a song – ‘The Revolution Will Not Be Televised’, during the Black Power Movement. Link - shorturl.at/begHU Some references used will send us down wonderful rabbit holes. I went down a few myself, and got curious about how a modern-day version would…
Recently I have been hesitant to write my thoughts here too frequently. The reason is that I try to avoid repeating myself and strive to write something of value. There has been many things occupying my mind recently, so I will try to keep sharing them here for this outlet has a unique charm...
Do not have a backup plan Try things more radical Drop out or do something that is more extreme You’ll perform better Just trust your ability of your brain You’ll be surprised where that would take you And I think you found it by being an archi coordinator in K You did achieve amazing things by trusting yourself Don’t…
It seems like someone disagrees with the previous poster: === anon2080 Don't let the naysayers fool you. The Art Symposium was a success and will benefit all artists in the region. The government's role is not to dictate what kind of art should be produced or consumed but to provide the resources and support that…

Giving a hand to those who need it without expecting anything creates a domino effect of people that want to help you. A week ago I thought I was gonna be left alone is this country with no one to go to when Im struggling, I was anxious about it, specially because I had to move my bed up 4 floors. During this week, 3…
I know other journalers through my online writing cohort and social media connections. I don’t know other journalers among my family, friends, and acquaintances. When others find out I journal, they express admiration. In my visual journaling class, I was the only one who journaled. Even the instructor didn’t journal!…

As I wrote in my last part of Cortex X4 [1], We finally have some news on X5. Quote: which forms part of (ARM CEO) Rene Haas's strategy to "eliminate the performance gap between ARM-designed processors and custom ARM implementations." Moorhead's inside information has "Blackhawk" demonstrating the "largest…
You'd be surprised by how many people are in the same situation as you. Last year, before graduating, I decided to study for a second degree. A lot of worries went through my head: "I'm behind," "I'm going to be the oldest," and so on. Many of these thoughts were just excuses to stay in my comfort zone, but I pushed…
One of the best parts about my time in university was the people I met. Even though we were all very different people and quite literally, came from different places, I feel we were on a similar wavelength. We cared about similar things and as we discussed our varying points of view, we moved forward and deeper…
Giving a gift or receiving one is so complex, right? One never quite knows what someone would like. We're grappling with how useful, grand, meaningful, or liked a gift will be. The anxiety around a good gift never ends because, for the one giving, it is a matter of 'how well did I do?'. For the one receiving it, there…
The anti-hustle people will tell you that if you're procrastinating on something, it doesn't mean you're a lazy good-for-nothing loser. It means your subconscious is sending you an important message. At the time of writing, I've just spent 5 hours pointedly not doing the real-life paid work that has been stressing me…
I was born in the late 80s, which means I grew up playing Starcraft. For those of you not born in the 80s Starcraft is a computer game where you'd build little armies and conquer the map. There were the future humans called Terrans. There were fancy hi-tech aliens with their spaceships and laser beams called the…
I usually listen to music on YouTube (and think YouTube premium is rather underrated). I particularly like to watch musicians in their natural state and not 'performing'. Radio station interviews/ broadcasts are a standard fixture. A couple of days ago, I stumbled upon a Tiny Desk Concert by Alicia Keys on NPR. She…
I wanna understand people. I wanna feel their words. And I wanna send a little noise into their heart. I wanna have a home in their heart. Is that too much? I don't think so.
recentemente, recebi a notícia de que estava com uma infecção em decorrencia de um corpo estranho no meu corpito tão territorialista e fechado. toma-lhe dez dias de antibiótico. nesse meio tempo, viajei pro mato grosso, ponto central do brasil, para um evento sobre sementes. uma loucura de calor na rua + frio nos…
They say that if you die at home, your cats won't even wait until your cold until they start eating you. I'm completely fine with that. It means my cats will survive until someone finds me/them and looks after them. Is this a weird first post on here? Oh well.
it costs as much to buy Holzfällen from Amazon.it as it does to buy it from Orellfuessli but whereas Amazon will deliver it this weekend, S has to fly to Switzerland first to then bring me back the book but since we already have an Orellfuessli giftcard...but I also don't want his mom looking at the book thinking…

After a day full of tasks, meeting friends, and spending time with my family, today I finally had time to sit down and study. But the focus just wasn't there. My attention kept drifting away, and I couldn't to bring it back. I've realized that I have more motivation to study at night because there’s nothing else to…
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…
ieri notte mi sono svegliato alle 3, ho acceso il telefono e ho finito per installare il browser di Qwant per iOS, che è poi una versione semplificata di Firefox. Sono passate solo 17 ore, durante le quali ho anche dormito, guidato, camminato 17 km in montagna fino a 3.000 metri di quota, mangiato un paio di volte e…
Sometimes, I find myself self-critical over my apparent lack of focus, worrying that my broad range of interests doesn't get me anywhere. "Business Idea Factory" by Andrii Sedniev has helped me see the value in my widespread curiosity. The book highlights that exposure to diverse experiences is not just beneficial but…
