Today I told my partner of 20+ yrs, that I feel we will break up soon, not because of constant arguing, finances or the usual relationship troubles. 😤

None of 👆, no (wait for it).

She uses Safari 🧭 as her browser 🤦‍♂️this is likely to put an end to any relationship. 😂

I’ve done the below 📵 since the start of COVID and haven’t looked back, and keep reducing my reliance on my phone weekly. 🙌

Here’s an interesting read 🤓 from someone else who was brave enough to shut off.

The one change that worked: I set my phone to ‘do not disturb’ three years ago – and have never looked back
WhatsApp notifications in the middle of the night were the final straw. I switched those off – and every other alert – and it helped my wellbeing, sleep and parenting

Get outside 🌳 and speak to someone face-to-face, 🗣️trust me it’s worth it.

If you contrast it to nutrition in bodybuilding it would be:

Online Chat = Supplements 💊
Meeting in Person = Real Food 🍗

You can’t survive on just supplements, but you can survive on real food only.

I think I’m done with 🍎 & Microsoft for home use (no choice for work 😮‍💨).

Was hoping the 16e would replace my 12Mini but it’s huge, so ordered a

My Intel Macbook is ageing, so flipping the coin 🪙 on Debian Linux or BSD-OS.. screw 🍏 Intelligence.

Genius idiot! 😜 and great recipe for burnout, 👇is a better strategy (manipulate the clock to suit you) ⏰

I work a 10-day week, so essentially do 6hrs/day x 10 = 60hr week. I then roughly get 3-weeks per month 🗓️

It’s a marathon, not a sprint you 🍆

In leaked memo to Google's AI workers, Sergey Brin says 60 hours a week is the 'sweet spot' and doing the bare minimum can demoralize peers
"I think we have all the ingredients to win this race, but we are going to have to turbocharge our efforts."

I work in computers, I’m not a computer; so you can’t expect me to be on 24x7. 💻

Even a computer has Sleep, Standby & Hibernate in its Settings; why can’t I be granted the same? 🛌

💡My Thoughts - I don’t get why many have a hard on 🍆 for AI?

The only benefit I’ve seen is:

🃏1. It’s a great Shuffler: like a card shuffler, but for words, code, etc..

🔤 2. Paraphrasing: Similar to the above, rewrites for you.

📈3. Results without Ads (for now anyway).

@silentkw.bsky.social that’s amazing, I dream to be able to draw like this. ❤️

When dealing with new clients, I find that they fall under at least 1 of what I call the MATE framework. 🤝

(M)oney: They wanna save or make more

(A)nxiety: They wanna reduce stress or fear

(T)ime: They want more of it

(E)go: They wanna feel good, or look good to competitors

This works. 👌 I’ll usually structure my day like this:

09:00-12:00 - 📈 Shallow-Work
12:00-14:00 - 💪 Goto Gym
14:00-15:00 - 🥪 Lunch & Learn
15:00-18:00 - 💼 Deep-Work
18:00-19:00 - 🏃‍♀️ Cardio

Having a workout after each work block has really helped me. 🥳

Connect with others offline, and your life will change for the better. 🤜

Just use the internet as a tool to find and re/connect with your tribe, then take the relationship offline to go deeper ❤️

💭 hmm, if modern work is so awesome; why is everyone trying to get out of doing it or do less of it?

@bsky.app can you make it so my blocked words and tags apply to text images using some type of OCR engine? I block certain content, but if it’s a screenshot it still shows.

I cop a lot of 💩 for still using an iPhone 12 Mini in 2025.

Why do I still use it? My Number 1 reason: 😱

1. 🪫 Battery Life, amongst the worst and still failing I constantly run out of juice, this is a good thing for me as it forces me to stay off my phone and be present in my day.

💡Interesting Read

Having culled so many, you just can’t get away from em’ in today’s society. 🤷‍♂️

This applies to both your Physical & Digital Worlds 🌎

Both apply a certain amount of cognitive 🧠 stress when it’s chaos 🌀, and you only really achieve peace 🧘‍♂️ when there’s some sort of order.

💯 Remember: Order looks different to everyone, what may be order to me; may be an absolute mess to you. ❤️

🙏 the amount of important work you get done, ✅ when you ditch the phone; not to mention the clarity. 👀

I’ve recently replaced my iPad with a red A5 @moleskine 📕 for writing & drawing.. I’m down to (4) devices on my Digital-Declutter journey. 🛣️

I’m trying to apply this to my technology 📱 it’s hard, especially if you’re in tech. 🫤

I would love ❤️ to hear about others setups.

I’ve narrowed it down to 5 (my aim is 3):
1. iPhone 12 Mini 📲
2. MacBook (Intel 2020) 👨‍💻
3. iPad 11” Pro G1 📜
4. Boox Poke 3 Reader 📚
5. Dell Latitude (Work) 💻
