Does anyone have hints for motivation? I've had trouble keeping going lately. By the end of work, cooking, cleaning,etc I have little left near the end of my day....
When I was younger I was enthralled by scifi where everyone had a little gizmo they touched together while trading the ubiquitous "credits". With the advent of each and nfc we can make this happen now. What scifi fan electronics engineer would make this happen? Extra points for beeping, wierd displays, and flashy lights..... please?
This was presented in the context of am evil person but I think it is a great reminder the perspective is personal. What is profoundly important to you may not register in someone else's mind. Go in understanding this and communicate your mind,needs, and wishes if you will be having any ongoing relation with the person.
I've said this to friends in person before but let me say it here.... When I was quite young I thought it was cute when I my grandparents could feed a very large family for a few dollars and would tell me related stories. Now that I am older, I don't find this cute or quaint. I am unhappy and disturbed by inflations hidden tax and the ongoing assumption by those in power that work put in during the past should in some way be worth less than it was at the time. Stop robbing me of the capability to feed my family and provide them the life I work for.
I'm trying to modify the narrative with my friends. I remind them the things aren't getting more expensive, the dollar is becoming less valuable.
