  1. Ah, the age-old tale of the side project: the modern tech worker's equivalent of the New Year's resolution gym membership. 💪💻 "It's OK to abandon your side project," says the author, valiantly justifying the digital graveyard of half-baked ideas and abandoned GitHub repos.

  6. This is a better video than I expected.
    The main idea is nothing new, but the video games he mentions are perfect examples: I’m also looking for my next game after Hades 2, and I think thanks for this video, I found it. It’s about cats, how can you go wrong?

  8. "More than 50 lawmakers are not planning to run for reelection to their current seats, according to data from Ballotpedia, National Public Radio, and Axios. The bulk of that growing tally comes from the House, where over 40 representatives have signaled their intention to leave the chamber":

  9. “Self-acceptance permits balance in our recovery. We no longer have to look for the approval of others because we are satisfied with being ourselves. We are free to gratefully emphasize our assets, to humbly move away from our defects, and to become the best recovering addicts we can be. Accepting ourselves as we are means that we are all right, that we are not perfect, but we can improve.”

  10. life got me wondering: with the success of so many job simulator games, are there quitting simulators? then i found this text adventure of the horror genre, Quit Your Job Simulator 2014: philome.la/inurashii/quit-your

    it was fun! i need more of this.

    (there is also a game in progress from a different developer called Quitting Simulator, which sounds interesting too)

  11. Just 3 days more!

  12. Of course collective organization at the workplace would be more effective, quitting is all too often a soon forgotten and futile gesture...I know, I know, I have actually read "Exit, Voice, and Loyalty" - but sometimes maintaining a sense of one's own agency and integrity must be paramount.

  13. "…an online #DIY subculture focused on #quitting #psychiatricmedications has expanded and begun to mature into a service industry. Ms. Delano is a central figure in this shift.
    “That sounds quite radical,” she allowed. “I imagine a lot of people would hear that and be, like, ‘That’s dangerous.’ But it’s just been the reality for thousands and thousands of people out there who have realized, ‘I have to stop thinking that #psychiatry is going to get me out of this situation.’”

  14. Great post here by @yordi. As someone who's also always starting and trying many different projects, I really felt this one. It's tough, but you do have to listen to and follow your joy, whether it's starting something, or if it's QUITTING something.
