That thing you walk by every day and think, ”Ugh, I need to take care of that.”
And then you don’t take care of it, and then you walk by it again and think, “Ugh, why didn’t I deal with that! I suck.”
And then you’re depressed.
(Or is it just me?)
Well, next time say, “I’m going to do this right now.”
And then, don’t just move it somewhere closer to where it needs to go. If it needs to be in a box in the closet, take the box down and it the thing inside. Don’t put it on the shelf next to the box. Do it right.
I, for one, feel so much better about myself when things are taken care of.

That thing you’ve been putting off? Do it. Do it now. You will feel such a profound relief when it’s done.
Got caught up on my math homework and now I feel like a person for the first time in months

If there is something you are dreading/scared to do, just throw yourself into it and do it, don’t worry about doing it right necessarily. Make it fear you with how directly you’re attacking it, flip the script. Thanks Nike. Prioritize action to inaction.
Semi related too, if there’s something you want to put off that takes less then 5 minutes, always do it then.

for weeks i've had a basket of clean laundry sitting in my room waiting to be folded and put away. in my head i always figure i'll need at least 1-2 hours to fold and put clean clothes away. i finally did it today.
it took me twenty minutes.....
here's your reminder to do the thing you've been putting off. you'll feel kind of dumb about not doing it earlier lol.

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists.
The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.

I’m 50, I say because that makes me unusual in this context. I paid [redacted] for a ticket to the Eras Tour after listening to tswift for 3 weeks, and it was worth it. In second grade my teacher gave kids birthday spankings over her knee, and in sixth grade my teacher told my mom I hadn’t blossomed yet. I’m a good friend, mostly to people on the internet. I’m good at conversing with strangers. I’m usually the oldest person at the show but don’t feel like it. I’m good at being helpful. I’m sarcastic and funny and make myself laugh. I’m a good graphic designer and a conscientious driver. I’m a good photographer and I can successfully follow recipes. I don’t use my Peloton enough. I did a lot of caregiving for my mom for several years, and we enjoyed spending time together even if it was mostly in waiting rooms and my car. The fastest I ever ran a mile was eight minutes and six seconds. I drove the same car for 20 years and then replaced it with another one. I enjoy tipping, giving money to people on the street and Disneyland. I am a fan of baseball, Formula 1 racing and the Criterion Channel. I solve about 80% of New York Times crosswords. I take Prozac and Wellbutrin, and take Trazodone to sleep through the night. I wish I had a glassed in solarium so I could sleep in it on rainy nights. I would like to have a pet cat and a garage. I could happily live eating only cereal and fruit. I overshare on the internet and undershare elsewhere. ✌️💛
