It's just after 10am on a Sunday. My current goal is getting out of bed. My alarm went off an hour ago. Time to get up, I suppose π

RULES (updated 01/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Donβt ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

It's 3am on Saturday night/Sunday and finally exhausted enough to fall asleep hopefully
No but they were RNG based with low odds so its ok.
Yup, I did yoga this morning, making it my 7th consecutive day of practise.
Did Persian Yoga for the first time today. My butt hurts.
Oh wow, it sounds challenging? Good on you for making it through though!
All the ones I wanted to do, yeah. I made noodles, did dishes, drank cider, took a nap, and played board games. I was supposed to go for a walk and play my drums too, but oh well. There's always tomorrow!
No.
Yeah. But the bar was set low, being Sunday. Took a hike, poisoned some awful yellowjackets for the second day running -hoping to destroy the colony wherever that might be.
I didn't finish everything I had set out to at work today, but the stuff I did finish was well received. I'm on track to go to bed on time, was able to exercise, and we cooked a pretty bomb masaman curry dish for dinner. There's always tomorrow for work stuff - consider my goals for the day completed.
No. Im starting a big home project however idk how to start it. Where? Where do I effing start?
Not all of them, but I got a few :)
It's still morning but some things have been accomplished. Now i just have to convince myself to go study outside in the afternoon and not seclude myself in the house.
Yesss. Accepted my health limits and stayed in bed. Ate enough food. Avoided most doomscrolling. Good day.
My goal for today was to search for a new computer that is as good, if not better than this one. This computer has been so great but it is more than obvious that it is on its way out due to old age. It's the most expensive computer they have in stock, like this one once was, and I'm more than satisfied with its specifications!
Yes.
Urgh, no, I've got maybe six things left undone. I guess I can muster up some end-of-day willpower to do the dishes at least but damn.
I did! I got into work 2hrs earlier than normal, then went to school immediately after,then did the paperwork and made a phone call after that that I needed to do. The day flew by!
Now I'm heavily procrastinating bed because wake up time is dreadfully close and I don't want tomorrow to exist yet.
I've been trying to do my laundry since the last 3 weeks, every weekend. I really hope that I can manage to get up and fricking do it today
What's particularly vexxing about it? Is everything in a central basket
Yeah. It's mostly just my executive function disorder thingy. Plus, I live on a campus where the laundry room is a bit of a walk.
I think it's just me mostly trying to find reasons to delay it. Like I thought before laundry I should clean my room, but that never happened due to a variety of reasons and so on.
But actually I did manage to get some chores done today, so I think I'll do it tonight, hopefully!
Get a rolling laundry basket to, the Sterilite's are dope. Nobody wants to carry that shit lol
Might help if you have a podcast you enjoy that you only listen to during productive activity time. It makes it way fucking easier to coax myself into it if I know i "get" to have good company and content to keep me engaged
I did manage to do it!
Yeah, I sometimes do try to cheat myself using some odcasts/music as a reward, doesn't always work, though :/
I mean to do laundry today but instead I've crawled back under the covers.
