devil dude knows what’s up
Thought I was in ADHD Memes.
Time feels so fake. Sometimes I’m sure an hour has passed and it’s only been 15 minutes. Sometimes it feels like it’s been about half an hour since I looked at a clock and four full human earth hours have passed.
Spending your time “productively” is a capitalist brainwashing tool. They already exploit you in your working hours, five days a week, all day. They came for our off hours with the advent of newer technologies. They came for our third spaces because they implied you were allowed to live your life outside of spending or producing capital. And they’re here, already vying for your small sliver “you” time because that doesn’t churn the gears of this life sucking system.
Fight the fucking system. Do goddamn nothing and enjoy it. Don’t let them guilt you into thinking your life is wasted if you’re not “producing.” Fuck them.
I don’t think spending time on my hobbies and interests as unproductive.
Doing nothing is fine. Spending the say scrolling is… feels bad.
I mean, I should have washed my towels because I ran out of clean towels last night but here we are at bedtime and it’s not been done. That’s got as close to nothing to do with capitalism as it gets but it’s certainly got a lot to do with being productive and it’s something I should have done today but didn’t
How many times has your least used towel(s) been used?
There’s obviously things you do for yourself to maintain your life, which are different than what I was talking about.
The devil wears overalls.
Two thousand to look like a fancy farmer. Yikes
Looks like peak junior high girl attire circa 1998. I thought they made girls look terrible back then. This was right before the brief but high popularity of shirts with only one shoulder strap, another ugly fashion trend for girls.
I mean… I’ve posted memes on lemmy… it’s something 🥲.
I appreciate you
o7 doing the lord’s work
It took me far to long to realize o7 represented someone saluting, and not 007’s lame intern, 07, that everyone was talking about for some reason.
TIL what o7 is.
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
This is me shaking my fist o9
lol
There’s a parable about this Taoist Master who’s seen standing by a mountain view.
They ask the Master: are you meditating? And the Master says no, I’m just standing here.
They ask the Master: are you contemplating nature? And the Master says no, I’m just standing here.
They ask the Master: are you waiting for something? And the Master says no, I’m just standing here.
Sometimes it’s okay to just stand there.
“And thus, the students were enlightened”
It’s nice to sometimes let the world pass by instead of always trying to keep up
It’ll still be there when you get done chilling.
Yes, okay, but I think that in this parable this master was, in the way that we would understand it, mediating. But in saying this trying to make a deeper point about how mediation is “just standing” (or sitting, or whatever) and not striving for a particular goal. The same principle is commonly expressed in zen and other related branches of Buddhism which absorbed some ideas from Taoism. That said it is totally 100% okay to just stand there, or to play video games or relax on the weekend. But I don’t think it’s quite the same as the master in this story was doing.
Yeah, what I like about those stories is that they’re open-ended enough that you can interpret them in various ways. What you’re saying is definitely a valid interpretation.
I allowed myself to get pulled into another rewatch of Ted Lasso and have been stuck in my feels since last night. Honestly? Worth it. I can emerge tomorrow to be an adult.
fucking ouch
I did both today. I’m really proud of myself.
were you 420’d all day? because that’s cheating
Good work, I’m proud of you too
I feel personally attacked.
Just polish off this one more season of The Big Bang Theory and then you can figure out what to do about it.
Guilty.

Why does the hitler mustache disappear in the last panel?
Edit: seems humour is not to taken lightly or joked about!
It’s not a mustache
Is it a tumah?
So it’s a mouth? Loks like depressed hitler IMO.
The chin chinned so hard it’s giving frowning face.
I get that, but a mustache usually doesn’t disappear in the last panel, so it must be the mouth.
True, still confusing with the wrinkle being, two wrinkles? And one looks like a sad mouth.
In case not a joke - that’s his mouth. In the last panel it’s closed.
