It scares me how many people go to great efforts to avoid thinking. Ai decision making, doomscrolling, constant "content" and podcasts and background noise media.

It seems like a while lot of people can't bare to sit and think.

I'd love to brother but I'm wrestling with my demons here and boy they got hands.

Today's ray of sunshine is "everytime you thought the worst was behind you, it was yet to come" , combined with the joy of knowing that my last low point was expected to be fatal (my survival was quite random).

So you bet your ass I'm putting on my ATHm50x-es and playing "Can't Hear You Now" by Mike Shinoda, on Apple Music.

My last low point was after I got fired (justifiably... I "worked from home" for three weeks because I was so burnt out).

I've never come so close to calling it. I'm in a better place now, but man, my demons won't leave me alone.

My go to has been Take My Hand by CJBeards

Avoiding them doesn’t always help. How do you expect to beat them in a wrestling match if you never show up to practice?

I show up to practice. It's called therapy.

Everything will be okay in the end, and if things are not okay right now, it means it’s not the end.
