Méli mélo @flop@eldritch.cafe

Coucou ! Je suis Flop, je fais du roller et des sites web de temps en temps. Je suis bi, nb, vg, et motivé. #introduction

Je m'intéresse à beaucoup de choses, de loin (hé oui, gang autiste à TDAH), parmi lesquelles des designs, des géographies, des politiques, des fictions, des anecdotes, des actualités…

Mes passe-temps du moment sont un peu de Stardew Valley, beaucoup de GeoGuessr, et pas mal de musiques douces.

a monument for the sun to shine through, an ode to the puddles on a parking lot, a song about wrongdoings, and the smell of wet dirt again

been on the phone all day, nine to seven (tired)

pictures from sunday and today, i hadn’t told y’all yet but i am green now

i hope y’all are doing great

Je tente de poster un journal de mes journées, jsp, j’aime bien le format 😶

Today I:
- worked for eight hours with a few pauses
- discussed with my coworkers about how i would be happier with another job
- held the weekly office of my association, had two people
- went to a bar that agreed to partner up with my association
- helped our designer with the work on the event’s posters
- i am about to shower and that will be it

Yesterday I:
- worked at my job for 8 hours at once
- got a headache
- went to a dinner party prepared by gf’s friends (and that was both vegan and one of the best meals i ever had in my life)
- did literally nothing else at all

Yesterday I:
- shaved and showered
- fed the cats
- went to three shops for my association
- walked up to a fort that overlooks the city, and took pictures from an abandoned building halfway up
- walked a bunch more kilometers
- went to the market and bought veggies
- painted my nails 💅
- hung out with someone all afternoon
- got a delivery for myself (a handmade NB flag )
- slept earlier than usual

Today I:
- had first-aid training all day
- went to 3 stores to ask them for money for my association (got 3 no, but i will be back)
- walked a few kilometers
- fed the cats
- bought a thing for my association
- talked a little to someone from Brazil who wants to practice french
- vacuumed quickly
Before the end of the day, I should:
- eat an actual meal (i have been feeding off junk food for days)
- take out some garbage
- pick up gf at her job 💛

then had 4 hours of existential dread, during which I:
- was paralyzed most of the time
- walked a few kilometers
- socialized a little with a homeless guy my age and bought him candies and petted his dog
- took a picture of a park
- went home and watched the first episode of a series I did not like
- cooked food that was about to go bad

Today I:
- shaved and showered
- worked seriously for 3 hours (out of 7) at my job (remote, couldn’t focus on it more today)
- did some laundry
- took the garbage out
- cleaned the dishes
- printed documents and went to 5 local businesses to ask them if they would give money to my association

does executive dysfunction count as meditation

i don’t want to abolish work, i want to abolish the economic system that attributes value to work based on obscure market criteria, and the retrograde idea that we should mostly do one kind of job in our life and that’s it.

there’s so much things to do that don’t fit anywhere in the capitalist work structure and that no company will hire you to do because it doesn’t — or shouldn’t — bring money in. 🤷‍♀️

the thing with facebook’s new virtual reality meetings project is that it’s yet another toy that might tenfold the data use and double the baseline processing power needed for remote work at many companies — for no reason at all except for profit (i’d say fun and profit but these meetings are all but fun).
