Being more playful. Find more things to laugh and smile about.
Tap into my inner child, getting back into the things I loved as a child because I am a kidult with free will.
Sleep with stuffed animals and taking a plushie with me when I go out, despite what people may think.
Look for glimmer moments in my day.
The world is a hot pile of shitty dumpster fire, but I won’t let it take away my smile and wonder and laughter. I will be happy in spite of the world
I started running Linux 15 years ago, and switched to Linux as my main daily driver like 10 years ago. And I couldn’t be happier, but I still wish I would have started my Linux journey way sooner, especially since Windows is about as useful as used toilet paper these days…
Delete Facebook and twitter
I got a longer USB cable.
Quitting Facebook. The decision was somewhat pushed for me after Mark banned me for “inciting hatred”, I kept sharing a gif of a nazi getting knocked out.
Blood pressure medication.
Was high for years. doctor said we should do this or you should get healthy.
I kept ‘getting healthy’ for years
walking up the steps was pain, knees where pain, i’m like jesus i’m just getting old.
new doctor: you need to stop fucking around and get the meds.
me: ok
i took the meds, 3 days in… I run up the steps like I was 20 years younger.
HOLY FUCK, why the ever-loving hell didn’t I do this before?
Kind of similar with Ank.Spon. just been prescribed biologic drugs but waiting for an appointment to receive them.
Was originally having dicofenac with is an NSAID like ibuprofen but stronger - wasn’t working - so they bumped me up to etoricoxib but got side effects from that like an upset stomach so was advised to stop.
They hold off on the biologics because they are super expensive and only the NHS can dole them out. Apparently they originally designed them for Parkinsons disease but turns out they are a miracle cure for Ank.Spon. Fingers crossed it works out! Would like to be able to get out the flat more often, even going to the office like 3 days a week.

Enabling Grayscale mode >
It instantly breaks the “dopamine loop” of social media apps. It makes your phone feel like a tool rather than a toy. And it helps with eye strain and extends battery life.
10/10 would recommend.
Red light therapy, specifically Near Infrared Light on my lungs as it works so well that I was able to stop my 45+ years of daily asthma meds. Incredible.
You s𝖾nt m𝖾 down a r𝖾s𝖾arch rabbit hol𝖾 about R𝖾d Light Th𝖾rapy. I hop𝖾 my 𝖾xp𝖾rienc𝖾 will b𝖾 good as w𝖾ll.
How do you do RLT for your lungs?
I have a small RTL panel that I put into NIR mode (not red) and place it on my chest, sides and back to cover all areas of my lungs. Super effective with a growing body of evidence for it use.
