Well, there are a couple of ways one could approach this daily prompt. Answering this prompt would be different if you were to propose that I lived my whole life without a computer, or if computers suddenly disappeared. It would be devastating to know about computers and have them disappear. Not only emotionally devastating but also society would collapse and that would make things difficult. lol My daily life without a computer would look a lot different than what it is now. Everything I do is on computers. I work on my laptop. I talk on my cell phone. I…

I wanted to get this out of the way early today because I’m hoping to get those titles in Overwatch 2. What details of my life could I pay more attention to? Perhaps subtle cues from other people. I don’t always do well at reading between the lines. People drop hints and they go right over my head typically. It makes for frustrating experiences. About 6 months ago I took an online test for Autism. I know, it’s probably not hugely accurate but I scored like 77% on the spectrum. Since then, I’ve periodically wondered if that is perhaps why…

Join me as I navigate through a typical Monday, juggling work commitments, essential errands, and the quest for gaming glory in Overwatch 2. It's all about finding the right balance and sneaking in a bit of fun along the way!

I’m opposed to hard work. I much prefer smart work. I suppose I am just trying to avoid answering this question. No, you know what. Now that I think on it deeper, what happens if you start something and you think it’s going to be a simple project, but then it turns out to be a bigger project and hard work, but you see it through. I mean, if we’re going to go with that scenario, I suppose that feels good. I started to write that earlier this afternoon. Now it’s almost 8pm at night and I’m finishing it on…

I had a difficult time sleeping last night. I kept waking up every hour on the hour thinking that my cat was upset. You see, he was sleeping at my feet, and when he does that I worry about kicking him. I worry so much that it interferes with my sleep. I don’t know why, but I have this odd compulsive thinking that my foot is going to crush his little delicate body and I will wake up to find him a pancake. I know, it’s irrational. Instead of pointing out a trait that I currently value in myself, I…

I’m not much of a fan of today’s writing prompt. If money didn’t matter? Do they mean to ask, “What crappy-paying job would you like?” None, because typically the ones with crappy pay are also crappy jobs. Here’s a list of poorly-paid jobs in America that people might be reluctant to take, even if money wasn’t a primary concern, along with the reasons why: Service Industry Healthcare Agriculture Other Yeah. Screw that. I thought about being a social worker. I thought that would have been an interesting job. I heard about their caseloads though. Yeah, right. I enjoy my current…

Cultural heritage represents a shared bond and sense of belonging within a community. While I have not always felt as though I belonged within the community, I have a deep sense of pride in the history of Queer Rights. I wouldn’t say that I necessarily dedicated time to researching queer history, but I have spent some time watching related documentaries and educational videos online. For example, the Stonewall Uprising. On June 28th, 1969, the police raided a queer bar in New York City. They would do this periodically because the gay community was an easy target for them. Tired of…

A reflection on brand associations turns into a thought-provoking critique of consumer culture, questioning whether brands have become modern-day false idols in Western societies.

What could I do more of? I could do more work. I could do more work on myself. There are a lot of different things that I could do, but I think arguably those are the most pertinent. I could do more for others. I’m struggling to do this. To write for the writing prompt. Instead, I’m enjoying listening to one of my favorite podcasts, And That’s Why We Drink. It’s a paranormal and true crime podcast. Em talks about the paranormal stuff and Christine talks about true crime. They’re an entertaining duo. I’ve been listening to them off and…

Ha! Coffee. Specifically, an iced latte with an extra shot of espresso. That’ll get me going. These days, I don’t know what else gives me energy. I maintain a pretty regular sleep schedule which is surprising considering I don’t have anyone nagging me about it. It’s not the most noble of sleep schedules, I usually get up anywhere from 9AM to 11AM. Usually a little after 10AM. What gives me the energy to get going on the days that I don’t have coffee? Well, the fact that I need to feed myself and my cat, Bubba. Speaking of Bubba, he…
