I work from home so it's really tempting for me to just leave my work computer in "work" mode overnight - docker containers running, IDE hanging, slack notifs popping off, a bajillion tabs open. Close that shit down at 5pm. Aside from acting as a ritual to transition from work-life to life-life, it also gives you something concrete to start the next morning with while the coffee kicks in.

idk maybe it's because I'm in college and perhaps this is the only time it's possible but I fully believe in work-life balance and setting concrete boundaries between your work-time & your self-time. Fuck any Outlook/Gmail/corporate mobile app, keep that shit ON YOUR LAPTOP and the moment you're clocked out, that laptop is SHUT and nothing is getting read til you clock in the next day (or til you need to open ur computer again ig)

It's a 2 minute short film about Agnès Varda's cat, Zgougou. Adorable, heartwarming and imbued with Agnès Varda's joyful spirit.
