  I’m assuming you’re not rich, so the first thing is: get a job. Start to work and saving what you can. It’s important to keep moving to keep the inertia going and not stall in a place where you’re completely broke.

  What job? Whatever. Do Uber. Do McDonalds. Look for something. Get experience. Forget about dreams. They are useless and overrated. In the process of doing jobs, be curious. Spend the energy you would spend on dreaming into observing. You will find quickly what you like and what you hate. If the job is not for you get out and find another one. Go towards things you like, feel comfortable and feel capable doing.

  While doing it ask yourself “What’s next?”, followed by “How?”. I’m working in car shop cleaning and organizing, what’s next? Fixing cars looks interesting, maybe I should try that? How? I’ll try to learn from these guys and do courses. What’s next? I may get a job fixing cars. Great, I know how to fix cars, they hired me and I like it. What’s next? Maybe having my own shop? How? You get the idea.

  Keep a diary. It’s hard because it feels ridiculous. Like a teenager rambling about feelings. I still hate doing it to this day, and I’m 50. But it gives me insights about things I’m doing, because it helps you to see patterns in your behaviour. Like quitting when things were too hard to do because the noise in my head was unbearable and I had this depression that would not quit and I felt I as an alien around people and maybe I should do therapy and HOLY FUCK I’m autistic and that’s why EVERYTHING was so hard. The knowledge you may gain doing a diary is unvaluable. Do it the way you feel comfortable (or less painful) to do - physical notebook, computer, tablet, whatever.

  That’s all what I have for now, good luck!

  I see your point, but I’m not thinking just about the end but the middle: the things that happens in between for the product to arrive at the hands of the user. A cartel has massive power doing drug deals, and uses violence to assert its control over the market. The same happened in the prohibition era with alcohol. Wouldn’t the same happen with gun prohibition?

  The only way for it to never bother you is to pay someone to do your laundry. Other than that it’s a chore that will always be there no matter what. You can also have a deal with your partner, make her/him do the laundry and you take care or something else.

  Not my case at all, I can see the value of an ad made by a content creator I like. My complain is about things that falls into the enshittification spectrum, like ads on the media center of their brand new cars. I know I would be pissed off by it, but maybe I’m on my own bubble of ad hate.

  Firefox and Tab stash. If I have a lot of tabs I just click the extension button, it archives all as bookmarks and closes everything. It also open its own tab listing everything you save. Once in a while I revisit the names and decide what to do: save in Joplin if it is an article interesting enough to be saved, save the video if I like it enough, or just delete it.

  I’m so not stoked for this… Apart from being a reboot, bringing Tron to the real world smells like budget cuts to make the movie. I seriously think it will suck, but the soundtrack will rock.

  Fuck that’s cold, they fired the person that was essentially responsible for saving Pixar at the time. Way to show gratitude.
