@Daojoan Good luck everyone!

@Daojoan proprio vero

@Daojoan it doesn’t have to be that way tho…

@Daojoan @GreenSkyOverMe no, this week is quiet, at least first two days.

@Daojoan someone once said, at some point we have to decide if that's what we want from life. Always just trying to get through the day, the week, the years until we're dead. #Capitalism keeps pushing our heads down and struggling. There's got to be an easier way than this.

@Daojoan At which point, in fairness, it may be assumed to be true.

@Daojoan As a nihilistic atheist, I tend to view life through this couplet:

We're all just tryin' to get by
We're all just waitin' to die

@Daojoan adulthood in capitalism is like this.

@Daojoan Fuuuuuuuuuuuck...

@Daojoan

When I was a teenager, there was a common phrase amongst my friends, oft recounted when something bad happened.

" Life is shit and then you die "

Teenagers eh? 🫢

@Daojoan sad but true

@Daojoan This too shall pass but, like, everything.
This meeting will end, this day will end, this week will end.

“Build a life you don’t need to escape from,” Seth Gobin.
Here are some ideas and practices I use to help achieve this goal:

@Daojoan And your job is a continuous, "just get through these meetings and then you'll be able to do some actual work" until you either retire or die.

@Daojoan "let's have a break from work and scroll mastodon" he said
"I'm sure I'll come across something uplifting" he said

@Daojoan Then probably you should rethink your job/life/whatever and slow down.

@Daojoan the fact you made that realization is a good thing. Now you can work towards a better tomorrow 🫶

@Daojoan
Take your #running shoes and go for an hour or two for a run or walk in the woods. You will have incredible quite moments and you don't need that quite week anymore.

@Daojoan
And after that?

@Daojoan Thirty Years later: Why doesn't he call, I'd really like to hear a bit more about how he's doing?

@Daojoan

Substitute disability for adulthood, and yeah...

Wear a mask. Avoid long covid
