  1. One of the big things that alienates us from each other in modern life is how all the work of survival is alone. Each task, job, and ordeal may have another person or so present, but as they add up, nobody witnesses one holding it all together. Even partners who listen and care hear it all in retrospect. The retrospect can't very well portray the ongoing experience. The work of balancing all one's concerns. And the destination is not discrete. There is no threshold to cross at which point you made it. Every person has another whole picture of their struggles that closest family has a limited view into. If one is lucky enough to have such caring and receptive family.

  5. Do a thing.
    Rest.
    Do a thing.
    Rest.
    That's productivity.
    Does anyone normal actually just work 8 hours straight on a normal day?
    Sure breaks, lunch, yes, sure, sure…
    But still isn't it a myth?
    And who's perpetuating it, genuinely believing it? Expecting it? That last one is the big one I think.

    Even when we totally understand and acknowledge a productivity myth as it applies to ourselves, we expect responsiveness of the world.

    Extrapolation is hard.
