Well, my primary focus is on defeating the Republicans. The Dems are a flawed but conventional party. The Republicans are a racist, treasonous, plutocratic death cult. This doesn't mean that I endorse everything a Democrat does just because they're a Dem, but it does mean that I recognize the vast differences between the two and try to counter all the "nothing matters, both sides do it" cynicism. If anything, that's the opposite of centrism.

In other news, I was cleaning my desk at home and I have four or five empty notebooks/journals and I feel like I should use them in some manner. Any goons here keep a journal/writing notebook/loogbook or whatever, and what sort of things do you use it for?

I journal daily and it helps keep my head straight. Would recommend.

E: basically I write whatever I'm fixated on at that day or moment and let it organically develop. It's pretty wild how you discover roots of problems pretty quickly. If you do it a bit before bed I've found it's easier to sleep.

One more thing — positions are pointless on their own. Bringing people over to your position and building the power you need to make those positions reality is the grand challenge. In the end, our deeds outweigh our beliefs.

Last night I wrote down a list of small home projects I've been meaning to do. Honestly I've wanted to keep a journal or something for years but 1. I am horribly un-creative and 2. whenever I write about my problems or feelings and re-read them I feel a deep sense of shame and self-loathing. I had to keep a journal for a "philosophy" class senior year of HS and then continued it into my first semester of college and I'm afraid to look at them for fear that I'll want to gouge my eyes out. For now I'm just writing down stuff that I need to remember and any brief flashes of creativity that I have. I could probably write down the workouts that I do but I'm already writing them down on a computer and eh

Maybe my first journal entry should be about why I can't perform self-examination without hating myself or what I write down.

I have an idea journal with various concepts and inventions or ideas for inventions, mainly medical devices that I think about and make notes on. I also have a separate one where I tinker with some physics equations, but its nothing ground-breaking, just helping my own understanding.

There are a lot of people who support leftist stuff in theory but cry about it just not being practical right now so support the lesser of two evils now.

Basically the Martin Luther King quote but from an economic point of view.

Remember that this poster is the one who said trying to change the party was holding the party hostage and he was glad it failed.

Made a Tater Tot Lasagna last night. Turned out alright but I went overly conservative in terms of spicing the sauce. It was good, still I don't think I'm going to turn it into a staple recipe. They're better dishes out there to conqueror.

I used to take beef or chicken taquitos from trader Joe's, put beef or chicken chili over it, then out a tortilla, shredded cheese, and enchilada sauce on top and baking it back in the day.

The day being when I was running two miles to and from the gym and lifting for an hour 3-4 times a week.

Pretty cheap delicious way to hit your macros.

You can always write it down then throw it out if you're worried about feeling self conscious until you're used to the routine. Alternatively a CBT therapist could help with the larger issues. I've been seeing one for over six months weekly and it's helped enormously with some larger issues of mine.

It started the week at 14k and it’s now at 9.5k. It’s shed ~30% of its value since Monday.

And it’s not done dropping.
