    I had great energy on Thursday and planned to get chores done. Then I fell and broke my ankle and leg in 3 places and need surgery. 😭

      Perfect reason to put your feet up and relax.

      In your shoes, I would assume the universe was telling me to play the Mario game that just came out.

      But seriously, that sucks. I wish you a speedy recovery.

    It’s our modern capitalist world that says you should spend every waking moment on productivity, regardless if it’s actually valuable. Be willing to spend your best moments making yourself happy, it’s how we are meant to live. We’re not machines.

      Capitalism sees us more as consumers than workers. Capitalism doesn’t care who owns the means of production. We need as a society to stop hopping on the consumer bandwagon and realign the system towards what is really valuable. Family, health, happiness, etc.
