bsky email 2fa doesn’t work anymore

Staring out the window, asking myself “when will my confirmation code return from the war?”

I’m on PTO staycation, was looking forward to riding my new bike a lot, but now my knee hurts, probably from a slightly too high seat, after yesterday’s ride. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ah, the millennial experience of “every time you get some measure of financial and career stability, the world decides to do something extraordinarily stupid again”

Incredibly jazzed that the horrible chain sounds from my bike were my mistake in routing the chain through the rear derailleur and not something worse

My router's power supply died and I got it working again by using the power adapter of my bike smart trainer.

Real devil's bargain here, trading a way to keep sane (exercise) for a firehose of woe and shit (the internet).

My next therapy session will just 80% be explaining this

The courage to say fuck it we ball,

And the wisdom to know when we are so back

I forgot that personal productivity tech has a pretty large precondition: being absolutely insane

Over the past year, I had made a lot of progress with reducing stress and knowing the difference between things I can control and things I can't.

Now I'm spiraling with how keep my son and family safe from unfettered information warfare.

shower thought: the answer to 'how to make young men less shit' is not 'the right podcast,' it's stuff in the scouting/wandervogel/civic voluntarism vein but geared toward 20-somethings rather than/as well as teenagers. getting people offline in spare time and giving them positive reinforcement.
