You could figure out your reading speed and then build/find an auto page turner function.

Nice work though!

Yay! There are dozens of us (probably more since I guess it has leaped out of cult status)

Oh oh and I'm also open to recommendations if there's some other movie that you feel is similar and worthy.

Thank you and hope you have a nice time!

You might enjoy a movie called "The man from earth"

Dang, hope you're ok.

Shit does suck but you will be surprised at your agency, looking back, however small.

I pray you mean self deletion in a digital or a metaphysical context. In which case, would recommend. Everyone needs a level of ego death to thrive. If struggling, then there are books you can read, activities to experience, drugs you can take and interesting people you can meet (therapy is great for ego death) to help shake your framing of reality.

Sending you good wishes stranger. And my fav quote recently.

"If you look for the light, you may sometimes find it. If you look for the dark, that's all you'll ever see."

Your list is getting quite long but here's another less week known movie:

Nine Days (by Edson Oda)

Nice!

I'd also like to add "Turd Reich" to the submission box.

 

Maybe this should be in Nostupidquestions as I'm aware the moon exists. And I guess there may be an orbit zone where things tend to remain in orbit. But curious...

The full context question is: For man-made satellites, would they benefit by having a "Self destruct" button?

Sure it may add more debris but since an explosion would scatter debris in all directions, anything flung up or down would cause it to get out of this geostationary zone/band.. And hopefully come crashing down to Earth, reducing overall debris? Compared to an abandoned satellite, remaining in orbit and breaking down due to relatively low energy collisions with surrounding debris.

Basically I'm trying to justify self destruct buttons. Thank you!

You're quite right! The body thankfully does have some margin before it all goes downhill. I was exaggerating a tad to emphasize the vigilance aspect.

Although I do have older aunts and uncles who do need this level of high bodily maintenance.

(Not sure on your stance on Mr C.K but this bit lives rent free in my head on this topic Soz, couldn't find a better link)

And never stop doing it. One lapse or moment of weakness and bamm.. back to the physio.

Constant vigilance 🙃

 

Undiagnosed here, seeking some inspiration and will to not lose hope.

Had anyone successfully gotten in tune with your ever changing hyper fixations?

  • If so, how long do your fixation periods last?
  • Do you have a structure or benchmark after which you can effectively "close that chapter"?
  • What strategies do you have to nudge yourself towards topics which will be meaningful in the long run?

I tend to go from rabbit hole to rabbit hole but it never feels like I'm in control. These fixations never produce any meaningful outcomes and always have a cost which I pay for by neglecting other aspects of my life.

It is a superpower and a weakness as you all probably know. It's great for expanding your interests and appreciating life through different perspectives. I don't want to lose it and want to get into some harmony with it. Anyone had any success?

Thank you :)
