I think I’m going to turn in early tonight, y’all,
(for me, anyway).
I’m processing a lot and my brain feels so overtaxed that it’s a struggle to think or even breathe at times. I’ve been struggling to even message Juneau, and that’s been quite easy of late. I think I’ve overworked myself into a hole.
So I’m going to have a leisurely smoke and then I think I’m going to attempt sleep.
G’night, y’all.
If y’all want to help me feel less overtaxed, please check out my Patreon. It would be a huge help. 💛

The things I do for content..
Today, that was getting sunsick. Emerson and I went to a bookshop downtown after our original plans fell through, and I got…kind of irradiated making a video while I was waiting for him to finish up inside.
I have to be awake at 10 AM tomorrow for writer’s group and I did not nap today like a fool.
Pray for me, if you’re into that. If you’re not, send me good energy, I guess.
I need to shut my eyes now. I am so, so tired..

Working Two Jobs Isn’t a Flex
What’s the last thing that made you think, “I’m getting too old for this”? I used to think “getting too old for this” was something people said right before they bought khakis and started yelling at clouds. Turns out it’s a daily internal notification, like low battery but for patience. I work two jobs. One I actually like. One actively drains my will to remain upright. This is not a mystery novel. The day job makes me feel useful. I show up, I do real work, I leave tired but […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/01/28/working-two-jobs-isnt-a-flex/

Studien zeigen: Anhaltende Überstunden führen zu abnehmenden Erträgen.
Ein kurzfristiger Produktivitätsschub unter Druck ist zwar möglich, aber auf Dauer sinken Effizienz und Arbeitsqualität durch Ermüdung rapide.
"Konstante Pace" wird so unmöglich.

"His uncle urged companies to be more mindful of staff who frequently come into the office at odd hours, suggesting that awareness alone could save lives" - Updated story reflects he had a heart attack. Had someone else been there, or had he not been working late to begin with, someone could have been around to act

A quotation from Barbara Brown Taylor
I do not mean to make an idol of health, but it does seem to me that at least some of us have made an idol of exhaustion. The only time we have done enough is when we are running on empty and when the ones we love most are the ones we see the least.
Barbara Brown Taylor (b. 1951) American minister, academic, author
Essay (1999-11-03), “Divine Subtraction,” Christian CenturySourcing, notes: wist.info/taylor-barbara-brown…

John Tenniel is famous for illustrating Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through The Looking-Glass.
Here is his darker depiction of a view through the looking-glass, revealing a seamstress who died doing round the clock overtime to meet the demands of the high-society Season.
One wonders what Tenniel would have made of modern fast fashion.

A quotation from Jerome, Jerome K.:
«
It always does seem to me that I am doing more work than I should do. It is not that I object to the work, mind you; I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours. I love to keep it by me: the idea of getting rid of it nearly breaks my heart.
