experiencing a sort of come-to-jesus moment where I realize that I subject myself to the pain that I thought the world was subjecting me to. this sounds vaguely profound in the abstract but it& #39;s actually about deadlines and a sense of dread re: obligations
I could probably find some sort of way to blame capitalism for this, but if I extrapolate from what I& #39;ve learned about myself from experience, the truth is that I would find a way to torture myself in this arena even if I were 100% financially independent
I have multiple overdue deadlines that I entirely set for myself, and all I want to do is to go off on random tangents exploring random fun things. I don& #39;t even have a boss to get mad at. and my wife is supportive of my nonsense. so truly it boils down to a game of me vs me

"I& #39;m who you think you are. [...] I don& #39;t exist, yet you have judged yourself against me your whole life. Why do you berate yourself for not being me?"
