Somehow it seems I’m post-social media: Most of the time I can’t think of anything to share or publish. And frankly, it nowadays sucks to lack a personal identity.

I kinda wish I could be *helpful* to others in a way that isn’t too overwhelming for myself.

My fear of the depletion of my funds and complete fossilization of myself is increasing daily. But I‘m staying put.

I dislike how this sounds like a whiny confession, but it truly sucks, and I have to get it off my chest!

If you're wondering how that's sustainable, the answer is: It is not.

Personally, I like Auto Layout quite a lot and find it pleasant every time it "clicks". But I‘ve seen others struggle a lot with it, and I seem to hear a lot of confusion about Swift Concurrency as well. I know it’s at least a decade too early to do so, but I wonder what‘ll be *its* successor.

May I suggest making the Create & Submit button a little wider, though?

Why do we still get distracted ourselves with status symbols like we used to do centuries ago? Why can’t we at least temporarily unite for greater goods?

It is so, so difficult to bear that reason is considered boring and justice is little more than an imaginary concept not deeply inherent in man.
