I have goals for days! Not going to make all, or perhaps even most of them, but it's fun to have goals.

Be in love most of the time. Preferably reciprocal but if not that's ok too.
Have more sex. Feels good, you know.
Lift a weight on the reg. Did my first deadlift this week. More of that.
Improve my running. More PBs, more podiums.
Stay employed. This year sucked balls. I'm not rich or creative enough to be outside the workforce.
Reduce screen time. I spend way too much time looking at a cell phone. It's cancer.
Find the others.
Read more books. Both for me and the kids.
Be happy.
Be less self depreciating. It's not fun for anyone nor healthy for me.
Get my drinking habits sorted out or quit drinking. I suck at drinking so I should probably stop. It's been almost 30 years of trying so I don't think I have the knack for it.
Lose ten pounds, permanently.
Stop with the porn. It's just a dumb habit, I kicked nicotine, I can kick this.
Find strategies to de-escalate when I'm stressing out or getting riled up.
Go on a vacation. Perhaps a train adventure in Europe?
Procrastinate less. This one is hard :effort:
Put away a chunk of money every month for short and long term savings.
Be less edgy. It's not fun for anyone.
Be more sincere and straightforward. Scary, but I'm working on it.
Give more compliments. It's free and makes everyone involved feel good. Why not?
Reduce the amount of negative thinking and negativity. Does X affect me/can I do anything about X? If not, waste less time thinking about it.
Stay away from social media.

Sorry, but the people have spoken.



My goals are to stay off social media and gaming. I deleted both off my computer and I'm doubling down on doing self study and music. I'm finishing up grammar and then I'm going to make a second attempt at calculus 1-3.

This forum and discord for private messages with my musician/cspam friends are going to be my only two online things starting Jan 1st.

In 2023 I set a goal to try getting back into making videogames again by making a few small well planned projects I could complete in less than a month (though I often spent up to 2) . I ended up making 6 and finishing up a small project I had from previous years that I never finished. So the “year goal” system seems to work for me.

I’m thinking in 2024 I might try making less games but have the ones I do make be bigger.

I want to keep off and improve on the 100 lbs I just lost in 2023. I'm going to start lifting again.

Get my information flow at work under control. My email is a mess, etc

Get my van buildout finished and go camping 10 times in 2024.

I read like 2 books this year, I'd like to read one a month next year.

this is a big one for me too actually. my predecessor left me a big mess of files and the organization for projects only existed in his head. i hate it. i need to develop some tools and use them to manage my workflow a lot better

- I have been studying Russian for 3 months because there are many Russian-speaking people in my neighborhood. Next year I would like to improve it to the point where I can meet someone on the street and have a casual conversation that is understandable to them without switching to English. It is very hard because every word seems to have about 40 different forms to memorize and pronunciation is incredibly slurred, so this is my big stretch goal.

- Over the last year I have reduced my weight from 225 to 175 lb through increased exercise and decreased food intake. I would like to continue losing weight until I reach a normal BMI and my blood pressure is within "good" range, rather than "acceptable" when controlled by medication.

- I will practice squats until I can do several dozen in a row and not be in agony the next day.

- I would like to visit the dentist multiple times and have all necessary maintenance performed. It has been some years since I last had a visit.

- I will become better at telling people to go gently caress themselves as soon as they reveal themselves to be shitheads.

-Try to be less online. I’m not quite at the point where I’m willing to shitcan my smartphone, but putting it down at 8 or 9 pm and not touching it until the next morning is something I’d love to aim for. I’ve already succeeded to a limited degree in disengaging with social media (only SA and sometimes Twitter these days)

-Touch grass more. My mental health is much better if I at least take a walk once a day

-Deadlift/squat 350+

-Maybe start writing short stories again? poo poo’s hard to commit to when you have kids and have no energy left after you’ve gotten them to eat and go the gently caress to sleep every evening

I think I can probably accomplish at least one of these.

My life plan was always "get away from lovely people and upbringing, probably die before 30" so everything is just icing right now.

Maybe I'll do some things, maybe I won't, who really cares?

This but also,

1) Stay the everloving gently caress off social media. Read more books and from wider variety of sources in attempt to better immunise myself from brainworms. Read more actual books rather than just listening to audiobooks, heal my shattered attention span

2) Stay off the sauce and ciggies and out the pub

3) Make some new sane friends in the real world, if there still are any, find where they're at and what they're up to. Build a new, more intentional, social circle

4) Make more allies who are on the fringes of society, but who are not in the drug realm or insane in a bad way

5) Learn more off grid/permaculture/organic farming skills & spend more time out in nature

6) Tell people to gently caress off sooner when they're taking the piss

7) Continue the generally (if messy) upward trajectory of regaining my mental health. Don't give up on myself. Continue to weed out negative influences from my life and nurture positive ones

8) Severely curtail, in so far it's possible, algorithmic influence over my brain and life. Stick to a few, choice, trusted websites like this one and spend less time on the web overall

9) Start learning one new creative skill I've never tried before

10) Listen to more music I've never heard before, build a new music library

11) Get back into volunteering

12) Stay away from dickheads. Be more honest with myself about the things I don't like in life and as much as possible refuse to participate in them

Might edit this to add more if and when they occur to me

-put more effort into my wardrobe/appearance than i have in my life before. better outfits, better hair, shaving and washing my body more often. find my ~aesthetic~ and all that jazz.

-spend more time moving my body around and being outside. can't get stuck on the couch for several hours at a time anymore (like i am right now).

-read more! i had a solid reading habit going during the pandemic and it went away. spend more time reading good thought-provoking words instead of funny empty shitposty words.

-career goal: get better at the piano

I’m already perfect so thinking it’s time to “pay it forward” and help other folks achieve their goals.

I'll throw you my GoFundMe link then LOL.

But seriously, I've been working on becoming a Web Developer so far this year thanks to the Odin Project. I've refreshed my memory on Command Line Stuff, learned some Git, and learned some HTML5 to be dangerous. I'm onto CSS. Maybe this coming year Javascript will make sense and I can get my own website off the ground and maybe a job.

Oh, and find a job that isn't a complete train wreck that ditches people once the venture capital runs out. This year has been rough.

Outside of that, getting more healthy. Working with my doc with that.

Poke me.
- Become more involved in my local energy co-op. Attend more meetings and be more open in sharing my experience, opinions, and ideas.
- Pick my coworkers' brains more often about this whole 'software architecture' thing now that I can occasionally not cause the software to crash in new and interesting ways.
- Assemble this looseleaf pile of notes into a coherent baking cookbook.
- Stop putting health before work.
- Actually use up all of my vacation time.
- Get back into writing. Maybe start a new book.

Hoping to get an EP put out if my connective tissue disorder cooperates. Also looking to do more musical collaborations in general, especially in genres I don’t gently caress with too much (anything other than metal, basically), so please PM me if you need guitar or bass on any of your songs.
