This past month, I invested in a standing desk for my home office. And I’ve gotta tell you, it’s pretty sweet. Want to play videogames standing up? Now you can. Want to package orders standing up? Now you can. Want to shitpost on Twitter standing up? Now you can. With the UPLIFT Standing desk, anything is possible. They have loads of different wood types/finishes for you to choose from along with many other customizations. I went with the walnut option and it looks amazing.

🖥if, like me, you are cursed with being imprisoned in front of a computer, in your own home, for many hours each day, just so you can pay rent, this is a suggestion for you
before getting a standing desk i basically never used my desk at all, working exclusively from the couch and doing untold damage to my wrists
now with both the desk and the balance board, not only can i manage to do my job with less existential dread, sometimes it’s even fun to pretend i am surfing whilst writing code or business documents

🧍Since quarantine started in early March, I’ve had more time on my hands than usual. To fill this time usually spent with friends and outdoors, I’ve been watching Twitch streamer Hasan Piker. Piker, a political commentator, streams every day to thousands of viewers and has been a great resource to help me learn more about leftist politics. For years, I found myself encapsulated in the “Instagram-activism” bubble while not really understanding the context and gravity of the things I was advocating for. I had good intentions, but if someone really dug into my positions I wouldn’t have been able to back them up confidently. Thanks to Piker, I believe I can articulate leftist talking points in a better manner while understanding the historical context and nuance that comes with them. It’s really important to understand how we’ve gotten here as a country in order to advocate for the future, and I encourage people to reflect on their own beliefs and their ability to defend them. There’s always more to learn.

🌧If you use the default iPhone weather app you’re dead to me. One emoji for the whole day? Really? Grow up. What if it’s going to rain and then be sunny? Don’t you want to know? I recently picked up The Weather Channel Premium and, my god, my life has changed forever. When I go to check the ‘DAR (my cool word for radar), I can now see when rain and snow will stop and start in my EXACT location. It’s incredible. It also comes with a new enhanced lightning map with a 30-mile radius. And to top it off, you can go full-screen. Only $30/yr.

🎵Touche Amore, a LA post-hardcore band, released an amazing new record this past month. This record is already high up on my list for AOTY 2020. I thought it would be nearly impossible to top 2016’s Stage Four, but Touche may have done it. This album has pop-punk bangers, emotional heartache, and makes me feel alive.
