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?

I'll try to cut down unnecessary purchases and my sugar intake.

Quit one of my 3 part time jobs

stop drinking 14 beers every day

Start making weed edibles so I stop smoking it

Psychedelics every 3 months as per usual

Continue my community service of shoveling shit into lemmy in hopes the extra content convinces more people to switch from reddit and stay.

Find a cheaper basement to rent.

If you can't quit smoking switch to dry herb vapes!

Live another year but have more knowledge than before.

2025 will be a busy year for me.

Just bought raw land and waiting for the septic install at the moment (Might be a few weeks away).

Going to buy shipping containers, get my storage stuff moved to the raw land, get an RV to live in while we build our house, and make a nice garden with a green house.

Excited to be off grid with the goal of being self sufficient.

I'm sure you've researched a bunch already, but be careful moving into the shipping containers before remediation is done. I heard the paint used in shipping containers causes toxic vapors.

I won’t be living in the containers, just using them as storage. Thanks for the warnings though, I will limit my time in them. I did want to make a workshop in there, but after adding lots of vents.

I'll finally power through the Korean course I bought on Udemy last year. And maybe also learn the instruments I bought two years ago (keyboard and drum machine).

...who am I kidding, I probably won't do any of those things. 🤣

Focus more on studies. The last semester has been an absolute bore, the topics of this semester should be much more exciting and challenging

Enjoy the last 19 and half days before we could potentially experience a Nazi Germany v2.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not enough youth buying in to really live that experience, look at the massive flop that riot in the UK was

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Okay but we elected Elon musk/donald trump to the presidency here in the US. Elon just recently tweeted about how a Neo Nazi party was Germany’s only hope and Trump is talking about immigration poisoning the blood of the nation….

Not so sure that bs riot Elon tried to help foment in the UK is a good indicator

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

The rhetoric is definitely the same I agree but my point, once again, that not enough youth are buying into the fascist ideology. The old men may march (while they can) but not much else

Just keep my head down and keep plugging and watch a lot more Bob Ross. Happy little clouds.

Think about all the things I'll plan to start doing once 2026 rolls around.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Aye right enough, last time I saw a cheque was about 1925 lol

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

I'll buy a new calendar

I’m starting a 30 day yoga challenge, I’m starting a 52 week self discovery journal, I’m going to learn a new topic for 1 month. I might be doing something else, I need to check my bujo.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Great choices. I like that their pets make cameos in their videos. Adriene’s dog looks so zen’ed out, and Kassandra’s kitty is cute. Cheers.
