STATUS: Using every single bit of software ever released, seems like.
TODO: Therapy, grocery shopping, some housework.
READING: "The Let Them Theory" by Mel Robbins. It's a little too self-helpy for me, but we'll see.
LISTENING: Getting Killed, by Geese
Now Playing: "Getting Killed" by Geese
Geese was mentioned by Nick Cave in the latest Red Hand Files, so I thought I'd give them a listen. I'm not sure it's my favorite, but it sure is interesting!
STATUS: Wondering if I'm going to spend the entire day in front of the computer. Again.
TODO: More leaves
READING: "The Persuaders" by Anand Giridharadas
LISTENING: "Wild God" by Nick Cave
Instead of deciding where to post things, I'll just wing it on a per-post basis, how 'bout.
Also, I typed that last sentence from the Linux box, then typed this one from macOS. I like things about both of them, so I guess I'll just never pick anything and stick with it.
Yeah, Yeah, I know. I'm not blogging here any more, right? I'm especially not writing daily posts here. I already have threeotherplaces I can do that. Well so what? Today I feel like writing it here, so ::raspberry sound here::
Today I'm blogging with WordPress, taking notes using jrnl, and keeping my task list in "Super Productivity"…on Linux. Things sure are weird. :)
About to make Checkers fries in toaster oven / Nikon F100, HP5.
It's weird how I spend a few days relaxing in WordPress, then I wake up one day and think, "Maybe I'll generate my whole website with Org-mode and Emacs!" I probably won't do that, but I sometimes consider it.
I don't want photography be just another kind of file to play with on the computer.
STATUS: An entire day to myself with no other obligations. ::rubs hands together and laughs maniacally::
TODO: I'll probably fart around more in Darktable. Maybe even hit the darkroom to make a few prints.
My therapist asked me why I thought it was a problem to have so many blogs/cameras/notebooks/etc. and I couldn't give her a good answer. It often feels like a problem, but is it? Maybe not. Maybe I'm just having fun and that's fine.
I'm using WordPress lately because it's easy and I don't have to think about anything but the typing. Images are easy to add and it can do fancy things when it needs to. Sure, it's a bit bloated and janky, but if what I do most of the time is hit "New post" and write, who cares?
I swear to god if I see one more person accuse someone else of being "complicit" with one evil group or another because they happen to use a product that is somehow remotely tangental to that group I'm going to become complicit. Fuck off.
STATUS: Sleep: Up at 4:00 am, as usual. I'm trying to settle in to using WordPress for the daily posts. I don't know if it will stick.
TODO: Visit daughter and grandson. Babysit for a couple hours.
READING: Continued "The Tools"
LISTENING: to my wife's workout channel coming from the next room.
I have so many great cameras, and I have the free time to use them. Yet I've barely been taking any photographs. Why is that? I'd love to figure it out.
I wake up every morning wondering who I'm going to be that day.
STATUS: Weight: down. Sleep: Dunno, the Pebble said 1.5 hours which is a bit off
TODO: Therapy, groceries, maybe clean the closet
WATCHING: Bingeing the 3rd season of "The Diplomat"
I've started a new document for today in at least 4 places this morning: Here in WordPress, on Baty.net, in my Org-journal, and in my Denote daily note. I'll probably add one to the wiki at some point, too. Funny thing is that the only ones I feel are redundant are this and baty.net's version. This morning I'm feeling like writing here, so, good morning!
I'm trying to spend as little time as possible on any social media. I'm finding it difficult. My brain wants new things to chew on, and I'm too lazy to work on anything for more than a few minutes at a time.
Whenever I used to see someone with an Android phone or some "knock-off" Apple Watch, I would think, "That poor sap probably doesn't know any better". These days, I think, "Good for you!"
DOING: Reviewing my subscriptions and canceling as many as I can. Mostly macOS software so far.
(re)WATCHING: Fleabag
LISTENING: Helix, "Walkin' the Razor's Edge" on cassette
