The paradox of productivity in 2018 is even if you're writing a quantum tech article whilst simultaneously dogwalking, podcasting your fourth Ph. D, & inventing the next revolutionary drudge-work-automating app (that will be consumed by a tech giant), you'll always be making not-enough per hour for a dignified existence.
No amount of neurohack pills, 180-hour crunches and AI assistants will ever free us, because neofeudal capitalism will consume all abundance.
The wheel must break.

Reminder for today: It's okay to have limits. It's healthy to set boundaries. You don't need to take on other people's stuff, and you don't need to give your energy away and get nothing in return.
Don't cut off your branches and give them to people/causes who will only toss them aside. It takes time for branches to grow back, and you need them to live. It's OK to keep your branches for yourself.
TBH I don't even know what I'm doing here...
