Still in the Chicago suburbs, trying to break my internet addictions.
I'm done with Twitter/X. I've scrolled into seeing too many images of uncensored/unblurred dead bodies to keep using it. Everyone just posts anger at current political and world events. I know the world sucks right now, but I don't need to see every gruesome detail.

I'm glad that my anxious/depressive thoughts are slowly being disproven with some events in 2025. Sometimes it's hard to think with positivity when surrounded by uncertainty and doubt.
Here's to hoping 2026 will be great. Happy New Year everyone! Thanks to friends and family <3

One of my uncles talks about other people like he's a billionaire:
"He doesn't celebrate NYE"
"They're available on Christmas week"
The more I help him the more I want to say "find someone else." Typical business brain not understanding what it takes to make tech work while exploiting workers.

Imogen Heap is good. I feel like Utada Hikaru songs have a lot of similarities in style.

I just want everyone to know that Mamdani did way better on his SATs than I did and my job is basically “professional smart guy on the internet.”
Maybe my expectations are unreasonably high for humans, but I find it very difficult to imagine thinking this, let alone thinking to publish it. The “savor” speaks volumes.

I played Splatoon last night and I still feel like Dynamo is utter doodoo garbage compared to any other midrange weapon and entirely outclassed by every splatana variant.

I don't know what I'm doing anymore. Every feedback mechanism and future predictors are telling me to give up and have no hope.

Getting into politics must be hard when you don't like where you live. That must be why some politicians decide to run for office in completely different states.
