  • Night owls exist, I know because I’m one.

    But this guy is full of shit. Friends rarely want to hang out at 10 am. Afternoon? Sure. Evening? Bet on it. But 10 am? Not so often. And if they do they know it’s early for you because they’re your friend.

    Classes at 10 am? Goodness me, you poor soul. Every 9 -5 wageslave will shed a tear for you. (Yeah, I know. I’d prefer classes in the afternoon too.)

    Meet your Gf for lunch instead, or go with her on the weekends a bit later.

    And yeah. Fishing is often early in the morning. Make an exception for your friend or don’t go.

    Society sucks demanding from people to be crisp and sharp at 8am. But I have a feeling we have some guy here, who likes to play vidiya games all night long and wants present himself as the victim.

    I worry! Every. Single. Day.

    I worry about my social media addiction, about the fact that I’ve read once books like a maniac, but hardly read any books at all now. I worry about Fake News and racists on the internet and about ignorance on the streets and fascists in the government. I worry about hot summers and warm winters. I worry about the future of my young nephews. I’m worried about war. I’m worried for the world and thus for the whole of humanity.

    I’m fine! My life is good. I don’t have panic attacks. But there is always this slight worry in my mind and if I think about it, it gets bigger.

    Others recommend a social media detox. That’s a start. Chill a bit. Relax. Enjoy the spring. Maybe learn a new thing, get a new hobby, like cycling or cooking. And then maybe, start doing something about the things you can change. I’ve learned a new phrase this week, it’s „productive restlessness“. You can’t do anything about world war 3, but maybe you can change other things.

    And please, don’t allow others to take advantage over you, using your fear. Don’t buy a nuclear bunker for your garden if you can’t afford it, please don’t start believing in crazy conspiracy myths and tell the tankies to go to hell, when they try to tell you that you should vote for trump if you want peace.

    A fellow worrier.




  • Yes. You can have your stupid little morning routine in almost every place thats not an active warzone.

    To get a live that’s more than basic, you actually have to go out there and experience it. To be interested in things and people. To be Interested in something!

    Than you notice that the broad smear of western comfort and culture ist just a thin layer, a nice bubble for the well-off, weary business traveler or digital nomad.

    Yes, I do it like many armchair psychologists here, I diagnose you with a light depression. Had this too, once. Shake it up. Do something new, something that makes you happy.
