daniel's diary

I started a Substack yesterday to import some of my old articles. I really think its going to encourage me to write more things that I care about. It was really nice to see so many people with similar interests in a place that felt less performance-driven than a more standard social media platform. Since I graduated, and even just before, I feel like I've been at the cusp of burnout. The first thing I want to start working on is a piece about switching to a dumb phone. I honestly don't think I can talk enough about how much of a positive change this has been in my life, even if I can sometimes feel myself slipping back into old habits. I've also been playing a lot of Hello Kitty Island Adventure and it is a much better game than I could have expected!
