I need to remember that even though the world is burning around me, I'm sitting in an intact apartment in a city/country that still has functioning infrastructure and services. Nothing catastrophic has happened yet. I need to stop borrowing suffering from the future. Until shit happens, I'm OK. So get up.

@gurupangujiDevotion, not discipline is the secret to sustained action
The Devotion-Friction Matrix of devoted action has four states:
Flow (high devotion, low friction) where action feels natural and repeatable;
Strain (high devotion, high friction) where caring is high but the cost of doing it is high too;
Coasting (low devotion, low friction) where you keep going mostly because it’s easy;
Avoidance (low devotion, high friction) where the task feels both unrewarding and hard to start, so it gets postponed or completely dropped.
This is a perfect visual to the state of play.

The sky was so #pink this morning. Unedited colors.
Charlie is going back home today. Will finally be able to sleep in again.
TechShoutSearching for Discord alternatives? These are the best options for privacy, voice chat and full server control right now
Had a meeting with Tammy to go over the comms plan. Then ran the #ADHD community idea by her. With #Discord planning on requiring ID soon, I'm going to have to ditch it and my online community. I really miss when the internet was full of free online message boards and connected chatrooms. Everything is on Discord and reddit and slack etc now. I hate it.
Met Rd for brunch on Saturday and spent 4 hours together. Only felt drained after coming home and realizing how long the hangout was. Impressed with myself.
Visited parents yesterday and played cards. Alleviated the guilt of not spending enough time with them this past month.
Thom wants to meet on Saturday. Have to muster the mental energy for it. I'd really like to phase him out of my life.
Abe also wanted to meet on Saturday. Must stop staying friends with people out of #guilt.

Charlie woke me up at 5:30am for his walk today. Then he judged me when I went back to sleep. I miss my #dog free life.
R is back home after surgery. Went & visited him today. Played Mario Kart against him, D & Y. Pretty smug about kicking their asses despite not having played on console in years.
Hoping D decides to take Charlie back soon. Walking him has devolved into seeing which of us is faster at reaching edible street junk. My sleeping neighbors were treated to the echos of me swearing at him at 7am this morning as I tried to wrestle a chicken bone out of his mouth. #DogLife
I'm... #dead. How can watching a 7-year-old for three hours be this exhausting? After Y left, I barely managed having dinner and taking Charlie on his last walk of the day. In bed at 8pm, feels like 12am. I'm never solo #babysitting again.
I'm suddenly back to sleeping through the night and waking up at 6:30am before the alarm. Not sure what fixed my circadian rhythm. Whatever it is, it's excellent because Charlie needs to be walked four times a day starting at 7am to ensure no in-house disasters.
Y is coming over after school to visit, then I'm helping her with homework. Cleaning the apartment until then. Will attempt baking sugar cookies.
