  • For me, writing a journal, notes or to-do list on a app or text file is completely useless. I just forget about it. I forget what words I used, did I write in the dialect or the official written language way (my native language has a bunch of different ways to write shit and I mix them up constantly because I’m a useless dummy). Once I hit “save” thats the equivalent of erasing it from my brain memory.

    If I write things down on paper, I remember the action of writing, I remember what words I wrote, I even remember in which spot in the notebook it was, for example, half a page down from the spot where I circled a important task the previous week or one page after the spot where I crossed over a bunch of text.


  • I just meant that the other languages I once learned, I don’t know anymore. :D Its been such a long time since I used them at all, I can understand some individual words if I read them, I can say “my name is ____” and “hello” in those languages but thats about it.

    But yeah, I know how to speak my native language and English, thats two, so its technically correct that I know “multiple” languages :D


  • Its not about the performance or whatever. Its about how amazing it is that the things work at all. Pieces of metal flying up and down, going round and round, opening valves, closing valves, spraying atomized go-juice mixed with air at with amazingly precise timing and amounts…

    Its a miracle they don’t just blow up 2 seconds after you start them. But instead they keep on going for hundreds of thousands of kilometers without much issue.




  • I look at it from a bit of a different perspective. If my friends cant be bothered to answer me when I call or reply to a Signal/SMS message, then I don’t think they value me as a friend and thus I shouldn’t really waste my efforts on them. I did lose some friends because I don’t use social media, but to be honest, I’d rather have the few who appreciate me enough to reply to me with “traditional” methods, than try to get a hold of people who are obsessed with facebook.

    If someone thinks I’m a anti-social arsehole because I don’t have IG/facebook, thats their loss and my win. I couldn’t care less about such weirdos.
