Doopiidoo y'all!

Some say this AI thing's a threat but... ain't it a blessing really?

I think I'm getting a bit addicted to these.

Went shopping today... well hey!

Not mine! Bryn Johnson's.

This is the guy I hope to post more about, and pick up some advice and inspiration from this year.

I'm not implementing all of this into my own protocol for a better life - longevity irrelevant. Thus far I've been doing only the regular computer breaks. Light exercise throughout the day.

I've been trying to move around more for roughly a week now, and though the time between breaks so far does vary greatly - I don't want to set a timer as that quickly just becomes a source of annoyance, and detracts from the fun and benefit of the routine - I do feel better.

A few dumbbell lifts, a few squats, a run down and back up the stairs, the plank for half a minute or so... those are the types of break activities I'm currently varying. And looking out the windows a bit before I sit down again, as to exercise my eyes while I'm at it; hopefully reduce myopic progression. The 20-20-20 regime I ought be following (twenty second breaks every twenty minutes for... I'm not sure what that last twenty stood for anymore) seems just impossible to uphold, but coupled with regular exercise breaks? It's not! It's so much easier.

Unlike eye exercises you actually feel a direct benefit from actual physical exercise, and that's motivating, so they're easy to combine. And more regular physical exercise = more discipline! So far so good.

I mean I've actually been writing my diary on a daily basis so far. Brushing my teeth. Doing eye exercises in the mirror while I do. Taking long walks with regularity; sometimes multiple in a day. All the little things.

Discipline overall feels strong.

I'm still not sleeping enough at all, but movement seems to keep the sense of hopelessness in resolving said sleep issues at bay too.

If I only get 5-6 hours in a night I can get by on a few powernaps during the day instead. Optimism's the big resource. Keep it up; keep going; minor inconveniences shall sort themselves out.

I do need to start working a bit with my diet too, and morning care's important... more protocol implementations TBC!

Water molecules ain't the way they once were anymore...

This might not make much sense without a translation but... WTH! Google if you wish to pursue more info dude. It's a blurb about how water molecules have changed since the age of the dinosaurs.

The screenshot above's taken from a random Swedish company website that deals with water, and the circulation or filtration of ditto.

Pretty cool way to showcase their expertise.

I thought of trying something similar to this myself... but getting paid for it. I mean I thought of selling custom raps, and writing of various sorts.

I never did. At this point it feels like that service would serve little service, when there are rappers both as talented and generous as the Mack out there, doing the same thing both for free, and live, and in record time no less! Forming real connections with people in the world, and making full songs in the same measure of time it takes to actually perform the song that he makes, at the same time as he makes it!

How can anyone compete with that? It's crazy. It's amazing.

There'll always be a market for pre-written lyrics, I believe, but we really need to up our game if we want to match this caliber of perfection.

I feel... subpar. Like I'm not honing my craft enough. Like it's impossible to rise to the same level of complexity and skill without at least putting in the same amount of hours as he does, and that doing so would be an unreasonable feat, as he leads the way with an almost flawless level of grind and resilience.

And at the same time I feel friggin' inspired!

I gotta snap TOO with some custom raps dude! I gotta brew good things, outside the backroom. I spend too much of my life on shit, like it's a bathroom. But I'm upping my level too. I'm going back to class soon, just watching Harry Mack fume.

Word. Gotta put in the the work, not just observe the quirky workings of the world, circle-jerking like a nerd, lurking murkily when stirred... we follow our God though, cause we're a herd. Yeah? You heard it worded here first.

I spurge a verse! This here's my church. Genuflect, then go quest and search. For some new motive and meaning...

That's the Harry Mack effect. He grounds you; you dreaming.

Flobots dawg. It's the second song of theirs I hear, and already a favorite...
