Been struggling with getting my work from one form to the next.

Realised it was just a matter of switching from light mode to dark mode.

l 𝑾𝑰𝑳𝑳 come to accept this is not only perfectly acceptable, but an extraordinary method of achieving what cannot on only chronos time.

The real trick is to not treat it as work.

If on your unique path, then it is not work.

And we can throw off all these culturally-acquired associations.

Two very ingrained habits, here:
- Thinking about value-creation as 'work'
- Being judged by those traditional constraints

You know, this is actually more broadly important.

I feel if I talked this through with someone, I might receive a bi-polar diagnosis.

That's society being fucked in the head; not me.

The ability to switch between light mode & dark mode?

Insane creative power.

I'm going in.

And there we go... I accidentally tripped up on the lingo

So maybe the problem is sanity, yeah?

Sanity vs lunacy...

It's all there in the language, ain't it?

Sanity... sun... day.

Lunacy... moon... night.

Fear of night = fear of death

The obsession with light & visibility — as our entire work culture is designed — is a method of avoiding the fear of death.

Fear of death = fear of life.

And our precisely measured, highly visible work doesn't feel much like living, right?

So:

Our society needs more night.

Let's start with our work.
