11:55 PM I learned about the dichotomy of control back in 2018 after reading a book on stoicism. It's about how there are things we have control over and thing we don't have control over, and that for our joy and sanity, to only focus on the things we can control. This idea and mindset was liberati...
2:41 AM (of Friday, August 23rd 2024) Today is Thursday, August 22nd, 2024, and I suppose today is as good a day as I could have made it. In a few ways, today was far better than even yesterday's (Wednesday's) extremely productive day. I woke up at around 8 or 9 AM today, and basically worked firs...

Rolled for the first time this year! (The last time was December 30.) It was just supposed to be a wrap-up day to get my affairs in order, but now I’m remembering all the reasons I would want to keep rolling, as well as all the reasons I stopped. Reasons to roll:The Center of the Universe squad is h...
11:43 PM Today has been an alright day. In terms of productivity, it's been one of my more productive days in a while. I always say that whenever I do a decent amount in a day. I'm actually surprised so much took place today. I woke up at around 11 AM, and then I read through my emails while using...
Did the laundry, folded and put everything away, and only at the end did I realize…I have no memory of adding detergent. In retrospect, I’m pretty sure I forgot to add any. Well…surely the water still helped, right? The lint screen was full of crud. It’s fine. (Probably. Hopefully.) I’ll use deterg...
2:09 AM (of Wednesday, August 21st 2024) Today is Tuesday, August 20th, 2024, and not much happened today. I basically just worked, browsed the Internet, and that was basically it, the entire day. Really. I also did my brain training and tweeted some vegan activism related things again today, but p...
Most of Solution Nine is impeccably cool, but the Nexus Arcade is literally just a big Verizon store. Yeah, I said it. It’s savage time! We started a week late, because half of us were away for the first weekend. Kan cleared the tier before our first session. On the plus side, we’re ahead of ggg (t...
1:10 AM (of Tuesday, August 20th 2024) Today is Monday, August 19th 2024 and I had a busy day today and yesterday (Sunday). Whew. Yesterday (Sunday) was quite busy and stressful in the morning. The day before, we bought 24 hour public transportation tickets for $5 each. My parents woke up at 3:30 ...
11:59 PM Today was a decent day. Very similar to yesterday, but my parents and I didn't do as much walking because we ended up taking the trains and buses a few times today. We woke up at around 6 AM and my mom took a shower, and then we had breakfast. I ate the same things as yesterday, I basicall...
11:18 PM The democratic national convention is taking place in Chicago on Monday, August 19th and goes on until Thursday. The Trump International Hotel and Tower is also here in Chicago. My dad made a funny joke, "where is the DNC taking place this year? Trump Tower." We flew to Chicago yesterday ...
It’s wild that dream shards may be the limiting factor for my growth in Pokemon Sleep, after a full year of them being abundant to the point of irrelevance. The issue is that shard cost rises dramatically with pokemon level. For instance, using 300 candy on my Slowpoke (level 13) would take 23k shar...
