I realized that I feel tired at 4-5 in the afternoon due to the fact that I only eat once a day and thats right after I eat my large meal. This afternoon I picked up some Taco Bell and ate 75 percent of it. Half an hour later when I began to feel very tired I tried eating the last 25 percent in an effort to combat the tiredness. It did not work, in fact I just felt more tired and sluggish. So I went to sleep and woke up at about 6, my phone had slipped out of my pocket and the cold screen was pressed against my stomach, for a few seconds right upon waiting I thought I pissed myself.

The cabinet right above my sink has a magnet to keep it closed but it's very weak and it often opens back up again when I try to close it, which is really annoying when I'm trying to do dishes.

I suggest you invest in a dishwasher so that this is no longer a problem while doing dishes

Sleep is good. Are you not good? Lol
Yeah I'm fine. Unfortunately I have to wake up early for pretty much this entire week and being aware of needing to wake up early makes it harder to fall asleep, which creates a feedback loop where the later it gets the more important it is to fall asleep quickly, which makes it harder to fall asleep.

I didn't mean to ask if you are well or not, but to imply that because you can't sleep (which is good) then you are not a good person.

I've peaked on Reddit and my life will never be the same. Made a comment, received 3.5k upvotes, now I'll be chasing that validation forever. This is why I lurk. I also learned that I am a man of quality so that was cool.

Funnily enough, I've already received those on a different account - a throwaway one. Reddit is weird.

What's the point of likes and awards? Is it just validation or something? I'm afraid I'm way too arrogant/assertive to care for validation.

I coincidentally happened upon this post last night. It was strange catching an aoe3 player in the wild. I similarly once had the pleasure of seeing edeholland's shitposting on /r/me_irl

@RefluxSemantic When someone "likes" my posts it gives me a brief dopamine rush which I constantly crave.

That's not strange at all actually. I lurked for years before creating mine and I rarely post.

How do you make sure your front page isn't full of shit you don't care about, and more importantly how do you fill it with shit you do care about? Like /r/baduk
