      Maybe if we switched off as much electricity as possible, started walking instead of using cars, stopping buying things and then put our efforts in cleaning up the planet we might have a chance.

      But us monkeys are obsessed with doing things and don’t see doing nothing as a choice.

      Bring on the climate wars.

      We are doomed.

    You know, if I had a job where I’m just paid to learn stuff that’d be great. Alternatively I’d like a job where I just get paid to say stuff. I’m also open to a job where I do both.

    Just bought a flat white from the cafe downstairs and a different lady served me who I haven’t seen before. This is where the coffee goes up to and the top half is foam. How does one get someone deported from Melbourne? We can’t have our baristas doing this.

    Life increasingly feels again like a list of never ending chores. I tick everything off on the daily planner and then have these crushing feelings of despair when I turn the page to a new day and a blank slate - I have MORE things to do?!??!?! Do they ever stop?! Can I just stop (again) (and for longer this time)?

    And yet, doing the chores endlessly on Animal Crossing was somehow therapeutic and relaxing… maybe because it’s so much darn easier to earn Bells…
