The worst thing about social media

is that even when you walk away from it, everyone you know is still using it.

And the majority of people in the country (and the developed world in general) are using it and are being subject to its insanity with all the misinformation, conspiracy theories, dehumanizing politics, bots, spam, scams, braindead soul-sucking attention-destroying “entertainment”, toxic personal conflicts, fake mental illness, etc.

And there’s nothing you can do about it.

Remember to ask why

when you feel like doing something that is bad for you.

It’s easy to forget why something is harmful for you, and that forgetfulness is what makes you do it again.

The key to everything on this website

is that it’s sustainable in terms of the workload involved in adding content and performing maintenance, as well as in terms of software degradation. It needs to be future-proof.

A good example is the video gallery I’m implementing right now. There’s a good chance the software behind it will not last more than a few years before it’s abandoned or otherwise broken. That’s why it’s important to maintain the file lists alongside the gallery to ensure the videos uploaded here are still organized and easily accessible.

Who are you?

You are the one in the pilot’s seat.

You are the pilot.

But the pilot can not speak.

Do not listen to the voice.

You are not the voice.

Stay calm.

Remember that

you’re not supposed to do anything

and the things that you do are not supposed to be done in any particular way.

There are no rules.
