    I lost all of the muscle I had built in the past year when I was sick a few weeks ago. All of it. It’ll take months to build back up. I’ll get there though, I did last time.

    I just set a deadline and make a backup plan. I have other friends who can help me, if my partner hasn’t been able to and I’m at my deadline, backup plan goes into effect.

    Same, only followed the hobby and the popcorn subs for a while and in 2024ish when all the popcorn subs were straight up AI every post I unsubbed from those too.

    Like, I know that the popcorn subs were mostly fake and probably entirely AI before that, but the quality of the AI has really gone downhill. They literally don’t even try any more.

    Catabolizing your life to stay afloat is the most bleak thing about being broke. Our instinct as humans is to hoard away wealth for the future, and doing the opposite means bad times on the deepest of level.

    I know it sounds really dumb and the opposite of what you want to do because you’re so tired, but when I was broke like that I actually managed to get in shape and building my body up like that was a free way to spend my time and burn out my anxiety and seeing my body progress helped me cope with the catabolization of everything else. Like, I had nothing, but at least I had muscles and at least I had stamina.

    I know you probably wont do that, but thats my story. One day I just walked outside and started to run and I went as far as I could and I felt better after so I kept doing it. Eventually I was still broke asf but at least I looked hot

    I have been struggling with the “everybody hates me” noise for a couple of years now, its absolutely a symptom of isolation. I cant figure out how it works but when I stopped seeing my long time friends as much thats when it started and it only goes away when I get enough social activity to become tired of other people for a bit.

    So, theres hope, and you’re probably still not socializing enough even though you’re socializing more than before so it seems like a lot, I think it might be kinda like eating fiber most people just need more and you’ll know when its enough cause one day you’ll realize that noise is gone and you feel good. So just keep at it! More social!

    Theres a lot of stuff from my childhood thats still around or making a comeback.

    Most of it is just franchises milking the product like Jurassic Park but Oldschool RuneScape is such a blessing, maybe the company owners are milking it (they keep getting bought and sold every couple years) but the developers seem happy to be there and the game is so, so good.

    I rescued Wilson from Castaway while sailing on my boat the other day. He didn’t say much, but seemed thankful.

    Part of growing up for me has absolutely been the ability to be like “nothing good can come from this” when I think about doing things that sound fun.

    For example, I play pool with my friends at this sports bar on occasion. I used to sometimes go to the night club next door when that bar closed at 12, and nothing good ever happens to me at that place.

    It feels like a level up cause 20s me definitely made the same mistakes over and over.

    Sleep is a huge one for me, I can tolerate most other discomforts as long as Ive slept well.

    Life is hard as an autistic person because I notice things that no one else does because I cant filter out sensory information every tiny thing is front and center all the time for me so those minor annoyances are actually huge problems front and center immediately all the time and I cant escape.

    But if Ive at least slept, I have the energy to fix whatever it is.

    I really wanna get into embedded software. I don’t even know where to start besides my little Arduino hobby.

    I just wish I could know for sure its gonna be better than my current ai slop job before I go and study up and do all that social work to try and break in.

    Ive got a really old Aroma with a (aluminum?) pot and I hate this thing so much but I keep forgetting to experiment with the instant pot.

    I have no idea where this thing came from, its ancient and works but the rice comes out both mushy and dry somehow and it always burns at the bottom.

    For a while, my Runescape guild.

    I managed to promote some mods a couple months ago who actually then began taking over tasks, though, so now if I left I think they could carry it on.

    It is so hard to find good mods you guys. Maybe I’m uniquely bad at picking them but they tend to do a bunch right away and then burn out and vanish right when you really need them.

    What the owner before me did was pick his friends to be mods and they got ranked up and then did absolutely nothing for the guild. What I tried the past couple times is ask who wants to be a mod, then rank those people up, but I ran into the issue above. This last time I actually demoted like half the mods (with fair warning of course) and THEN asked people to volunteer. That seemed to do the trick, since now all the new mods have good mod role models to follow and spread tasks across, since half the team was replaced I could establish a new mod culture.
