• long day at work :)
• [[meditation]] helped as usual, as did a short nap (<10 minutes).
• made [[empanadas]] tonight again and enjoyed them a lot.
• also watched [[euphoria]].
• now I'm calling it an early night and going to bed to read a bit -- probably [[free, fair and alive]], perhaps some other book in the rotation like [[the universe in a single atom]]..

• looking more polished, was able to load my [[garden]] again. thinking of giving it a proper try for [[outliner mode]] notes, in particular while [[foam]] is slow.

[[Benefits need to increase]]. Some people are really struggling right now.

• [[The basic rate of out-of-work benefits is at its lowest for 30 years]]
• [[Heat or eat]]

[[Attempting to ban protest is the mark of a repressive state]]. That's what the UK is doing right now.

[[FarmBot]]. Looks fun but kind of pricey.

• [[Anime]]
  • I've reached the 20th episode of [[Shōjo Kakumei Utena]].
    • I'm really enjoying it—even the fillers. These get wacky enough (while at the same time they're not disconnected from the main plot and its themes; far from it!) for me to like them.
      • In fact, even the most "normal" episodes are really [[oneiric]]. T
    • The overall influence of [[psychoanalysis]] on it is blatant—and I really like it.
    • I watched two more episodes later today.

• I've finally set up a domain for my site. It's a free one, and it's more than enough for me.

• I'm impressed by the [[möbius bagel]] tutorial shared by [[flancian]].

• I'm writing a proposal for a really huge overhaul of our [[design]] principles and [[visual identity]]. We're stuck with a broken site and a lack of any direction, design-wise and aesthetically.
  • This connundrum had many causes, one of them the more general problem that we don't know what this project is anymore—and to be fair, we didn't know what this project was in the past too.
  • What I had dreaded the most may finally come: I'm gonna have to write a Wordpress theme from scratch.

• [[Spotify]]
  • Spotify's recommendation algorithm has stuck itself into a [[k-pop]]/[[k-indie]]/[[j-pop]]/[[j-indie]] loop. I'll try listening to things that I haven't listened in a while to help the algorithm figure out that I'm far more eclectic (and easy to bore) than it thinks.

• I dreamed an entire [[analysis]] today. It was really weird and cool.
  • Guess my [[unconscious]] has creative ways to circumvent my current inability to pay for a [[psychoanalyst]].
