This isn’t really a resolution kind of a question, it’s more like a question about what you’re looking to do once certain events kick in.

As I’ve been alluding to some people I know, I will be politically mute to the best of my ability once the Inauguration of commander shithead of chief is sworn in. Every news outlet I know, will be blocked and muted. Because I know they’re going to be back to following every breath of Trump and his cronies and I’d like to never hear it again as much as possible.

From there I’m going to be living in an entirely different world, parallel to the real one. Basically saying autopilot is going to manage the real world things and I’m just going to be grasping to escapism.

Anything you have in mind?

    Going offline on Jan 1st. For at least 4 years. If things get bad enough even after doing that, then I’ll take it further.

      Not as funny when we currently have multiple billionaires actively aiming for this exact goal…

    Gonna quit weed. Cold turkey. If I don’t have control over my consumption now, I think that’s a sign I need to stop until I do have that ability again, if ever.

      COVID gave me a weed allergy that made me quit cold turkey. I haven’t had any in a few months. I do miss it, there have been many times (like the start of November) when I would’ve appreciated it, but I’m scared to trigger symptoms again.

      If nothing else, my tolerance has reset

      Why not quit now? Like, today, right here, right now. If you can’t quit now, why would it be easier in few days?

      Honestly dude, you set this artificial boundary because today’s you just wants to throw off this responsibility onto next year’s you. Don’t be a dick for yourself!

    Work is going to start providing lunch for all employees every working day, so I expect I’m gonna have to have a resolution to actively hit the gym more than I do now. I’ve always been a bit stingy with my portions for lunch which helps me to keep thinner, but if work has a nice hot lunch every day I am going to have to work harder.

          One meal a day, a form of intermittent fasting. I have personally been doing it for about a year and a half, being more lax around holidays, and seen great results for weight loss. The doctors are generally happy with my blood too so far

    I wrote out 1 check per month to my son’s (4y/o) dance studio. I shall initially write the wrong year on every check from now through April.

    I have my lemmy client set to block any items with the word Trump in it. Hence, your question made it through. It’s been a blissful few months, not hearing a thing about him.

    This year, I’m going to focus on growing my business, and deepening my relationships. Family and close friends.

    Cry about the continued march of time and my mortality.

    Then afterwards!!

    1. Work on a project I’ve been meaning to put more effort into. I’ve had ideas for some time now of trying to “invent” a device to help me with a sometimes extraordinarily difficult task at work. Solutions for the task already exist, but are incredibly expensive (tens of thousands of dollars or more) and my workplace doesn’t seem to be inclined to go that route.

    2. Work up the courage to ask my work bestie to hang out outside of work sometimes soon! It necessitates hanging out with children which I’m not necessarily always a fan of, but I can go through it if it’s important to my friend. Sometimes work gets a bit busy or stressful and it would be cool to make memories outside of work. We’ve hung out only a few times ever. Idk!

    Yeah, the political shit sucks. But since there’s nothing I can do about it, I’m just a bit “meh” on the whole thing tbh. It’s not anything I have the power to fix. So I’m just going to do my best to ignore it! Not really on my radar at the current moment, but it definitely was during the elections themselves. Idk we’ll see. Always best to just try to think about other things!
