Some Thoughts

[linkstandalone] I have been having many thoughts about various things. For one thing I've been getting into something
called intuative eating which seems to work for me at least on an emotional lever

I've begun to realize that I'm a decently good human being and that is enough, like
that's all I need to be. Just kind and taking care of myself and just exist
Me going to university is many steps above what i need to do

This does take some of the pressure of. I don't need to feel like I'm constantly wasting time
"Oh but what about your legacy?" my brain asks me in dark moments
This website is my legacy, my tumblr blog, my twitter, everything will be preserved online way after I'm gone

I don't need to build a legacy. Of course it would be nice to have a book published
and that can still be in the works but it's not needed

I'm enough of a person to justify my own existance

The Cycle of Self-Improvement

[linkstandalone]
There's a certain cycle that seems to repeat with me. I attempt self-improvement
then I work on it for a while, improve a little but end up falling into old habits

Perhaps watching self-improvement youtubers has given me a warped view of how things should be but its
very discouring not seeing results and feeling like you're running into the same wall over and over

But on the other hand if I look at myself at age 16-18 and compare to now there's some immediate improvements in hygiene, socializing, goal-orientation, drive and self-sufficiency.
I'm not perfect, no person will be and perhaps its more important to look back at how far you've come.

Just a thought as I sit here trying to plan for tomorrow. Sun, 06 Sep 2020 16:50:43 +0000

Boredom and Switch NSP Dumps

[linkstandalone]
I woke up today determined to not use the internet. I didn't last that long but I didn't use the internet for several hours until the evening
Took a shower, thought about stuff, cleaned a bit and watched some anime i had on my harddrive.

I later went online to check my RSS feeds and such
During my time today I mostly spent it dumping my collection of physical switch games to NSP format
I've been putting it off since I have a lot of games, some of which are rather big
I've also yet to find a good way to dump my Vita games and still haven't moved my PS3 games from my PS3.

So yeah, that's the update for today

Covid-19, 2020 and Projects

[linkstandalone]
I've been thinking a lot about the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
It's affected almost every nation on earth and is such a force in our lives.

The idea that things can just go back to normal is absurd it can't.
Life didn't go back to normal after the Great Depression or the Housing bubble burst in 2008.
Having been a teenager in the financial ruin of the world in 2008 did shape me in one way or another


Covid-19 is a marker in future history books and a collective trauma on the human population
That's just something we gotta deal with.

Obviously this isn't a new thought but it's the truth and we just gotta deal with it in our own ways
For me it's projects be it this very website or fixing a house, writing or just simply focusing on self-improvement
I believe the youtuber CGP Grey made a great video about staying focused and mentally and physically sane in a pandemic



It's easy to spiral with what's going on and will continue to go on. Covid-19 may one day be cured,
but the ecenomic clash, the damage it's done to industries that may never recover from this or simply the germophobia that we likely carry with us through our lives is a reason to keep busy and keep trying to be a better person and enrich your lives.
I mean that's the best thing we can do right?

New Blog!

[linkstandalone]
Now, this is like the billionth time I write this since I'm trying to figure this blog thing out

Suffice to say I won't be posting on ramblingtime.com anymore
I've come to dislike Worpress its tacky and basically bloat.
I'm now using lb a shell script written by youtuber Luke Smith you can check his video on the subject down below

So that's what's happening. I'm really happy with my website as of late i think it looks neat.
I'm learning a lot.

Take care friends!
