- this is where I get all existential and stuff
% id = "01HFYZKREV1GSWT2Q07XFRTTBH"
+ but if you've been wondering what makes my brain tick, you've come to the right place
% id = "01HFYZKREVXY44MS45P5J0BRBE"
- perhaps my thoughts here will be more than *just* pure philosophy and worldview, who knows!
% id = "01HFYZKREVSW8KTGVKN4R8GPKK"
- **perhaps this will be the most controversial branch of this tree, so maybe if you don't like to
get all fired up... stop reading here.**
% id = "01HFYZKREV1CYFWBF4ZM4R3Y15"
- but if you decide to stay please approach these thoughtfully and respectfully, with more
of a a "this is interesting" than "I disagree with this" vibe
% id = "01HFYZKREV634J021ZMCDSP7G4"
+ :page: hedonic treadmill ([wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedonic_treadmill))
% id = "01HFYZKREVV2CX1GYJQ18BJS78"
+ a concept that's incredibly useful in keeping it cool
% id = "01HFYZKREVVSABAMXQ5C8VTWWD"
- because what of those depressing days, if next day you may wake up and feel 100x better
% id = "01HFYZKREVGA2YHKPXYFJ180P4"
+ a concept that's incredibly scary when you love someone
% id = "01HFYZKREVMKTSY4HXYE5R92HW"
- because what of these moments where you're incredibly happy, if you're gonna feel normal
tomorrow anyways
% id = "01HFYZKREVJ1GBC41SY44T4JRB"
- as scary of a concept it is when you're feeling well, it's useful to remember about the
treadmill when you're down. and don't think that it'll ruin a good day, just don't think about
it then.
% id = "01HREVZNAHB1H9VMD0NPPFTEQ0"
+ :page: just shut up sometimes
% id = "01HREVZNAH8XFRMVB9G58TPV8R"
- I just caught myself writing a few paragraphs long comment on [Lobsters](https://lobste.rs) without really understanding what the author of the comment meant in the broader context of the discussion,
after which I deleted my comment and gave myself a pat on the back for avoiding accidentally derailing the discussion.
% id = "01HREVZNAHRC9BJZJPH9RE21PE"
- this is an unfortunate side effect of the tree-based structure of Lobsters.
as much as I like tree-based forums, as they let you focus on many different (off-)topics without cluttering the main thread,
it's damn near impossible to keep the broader context of *what the discussion is about* when the thread nests more than 3 levels deep.
% id = "01HREVZNAH96KPDQAW1YW1FGC5"
- therefore, if you ever find yourself writing an essay about just how wrong someone is, think to yourself: am I *really* understanding what's going on in this discussion?
and if not - maybe just shut up and let the rest of the idiots fan the flames instead.
