Maybe I'm in my head

I'm reminding myself that my body says no right now. I'm not weak. I'm just lacking energy because I've done so much stuff. Most people haven't done all the stuff. It's ok that I can't save the world right now. That interneting is hard. It's ok that I'm burning low because my low is still high.

Since I last wrote you, I earned 3 diving certifications and an Emergency First Response cert. I hit another flow on Maybe Zombies. I coordinated and met on some things that I am REALLY looking forward to talking about openly.
|
I have to not let the World. The Society. The Culture. My Brain. make me feel like I'm failing (or flailing). I'm not. I'm starting to feel better(ish).

The Future Crunch people are going to do a special on brain machine interfacing and I'm quite pleased about it. I love their general goodness AND it's the topic I voted for. Also, there's a lot of good news in this edition so read it and realize the world doesn't suck as much as we think it does. I can't recommend Future crunch enough today, it made me happy.

Maybe I'm in the world

I didn't have an opinion on who the real author of William Shakespeare's work was until I read this fascinating piece. I'm convinced – the author was probably a woman, it makes sense.
|
Another thing that makes sense is this sad note about internet memes and a generation of people who are having a hard time being able to tune it out. It made me think that a good purpose might be to help people stop caring about the internet completely.
|
Maybe I should stop reading non-happy-making media completely. You know, we have labour laws for a reason. Safety policies for a reason. Antitrust laws for a reason. Disability policies FOR A REASON. There are so many loopholes that unfeeling capitalists can use to exploit. I think it was Dr Belshaw who recently made a comment on revising instead of revolting. The system is broken, but that doesn't mean that every single part of it is a corroding, rusty lump of metal. There are a lot of lumps, but damnit the world is improving.

Maybe I need help?
