@finitistisch Lol true - but also the more I think about it in case of my mom - I really wish there was a school for home makers perhaps - where they're taught tech, made to strength train, have a high protein diet, etc - will also find community through that

Bootcamps/Scaler academy for parents - how does this not exist yet?

The market though shrinking, seems pretty big catering to a rich demography 🤔

A good method to feel calm in case I'm feeling too restless is imagining a 1st POV visual of me going out to bat in a test match as if I'm literally Rahul Dravid

Another one is having chamomile tea with Uncle Iroh - is slightly harder to visualize though

Finding quite consistently that the later in the day I scroll the TL for the first time, the less likely it is for the dopamine onslaught to feel good at all.
