‼️Announcements‼️
Full year of updates #sick
🗓️ Weekly Rundown 🗓️
Carved pumpkins with Ms. Campbell
Set up a call to talk about the offer that could have been answered in an email - the corporate special
I'm doom scrolling much less, but now I play chess and that may be worse because it takes up more time
I get so sucked in and can't stop playing chess - could be catastrophic in the office
Conducting research on what will happen with AI and how this will play out by watching older 80s movies
Watched Blade Runner with the fam - it was mid af: the world and idea were cool but otherwise it wasn't great
Starting to set up a lifting split - thinking the good ole PPL split, but this time I actually do abs and the smaller running muscles/mobility before each lift
Disc golf with Max - we're washed but I did return 2 found discs
Fortnite with tinyrowles and the koggenator and caught a few dubs
My Young Black & Rich aura farming emote I spent hecka V-Bucks on a while ago was a great purchase
My big buddy cup was finally filled up with change and after using a Coinstar I had $80 in coins… after fees it was $60. Coinstar has more fees than a shady advisor
Fortnite with my sister - caught a win as well
Found out I didn't finish my favorite book this year. There was 1 chapter left, so this week I finished Die With Zero
Black Ops 2 Zombies with Max - we played 1 game that was over 2.5 hrs long and we beat the Origins easter egg
Everything about corporate stuff is inefficient - I've had to be fingerprinted at the same place 3 times now
You'd think with them being stored I'd stop needing to give them at some point, across all the things I've given them for
These political ads are starting to really piss me off. They are all so mean and give 0 useful information - soon I'll have to do something about it #VB4President2028
The amount of privacy we are giving up is so crazy, from fingerprints to data, etc. - what's next? Cameras in your house?
Weather has been so nice - very pretty skies
Looks like the injuries have stacked up enough that my once 5-0 team is going to start falling
Other league is still strong - in 1st place at 6-1 with a tough matchup and hurting from tons of bye weeks
🦬 High Low Buffalo 🦬
High:
I got to talk to a lot of friends this week, whether text, call, or Fortnite
Low:
My plastic gallon jug of water I've used as my work water for the whole season got a hole in it, then it fell off the mower and is now retired
Buffalo:
My spelling ability has always been weak, but I'm realizing that with autocorrect and AI getting good, my horrible spelling ability is now dog water and I think I'm going to practice it to get better because it's getting embarrassing
🧠 Something New I Learned 🧠
By definition, being exceptional makes you an exception, so you have to do abnormal things to get abnormal results, and doing something more rare makes finding people to give you advice on it more rare.
We aren't in awe of how crazy so much stuff is because we see it every day. Your body heals itself and how the body works is crazy, or the rain cycle or seasons happening is crazy, and planes? Come on, a heavy hunk of metal is flying in the air.
