I recently called 2025 my "lost year", and a friend gently corrected me.. she said "Just because you didn't produce much doesn't make the year lost. I think you learned and grew a lot this year."
That kind of gave me pause and made me think how much I still tie my self-worth to my output.
This one hits home... I kind of feel like I've just been through winter, and I'm seeing the first blades of grass peek through the snow now... but I have felt like I was failing because I didn't produce much this year.
This is an amazing perspective, so thank you.
I just read this story.. and it is So Fucking Powerful ... about real human art, friction and fuck LLMs.. well worth a read.

It's a twisted one, so reader beware.

Also: this particular story is not the kind of thing anyone would pay for, so expect it to pop up on my blog sometime soon 😅
@mkj@social.mkj.earth glad to hear it 😊

As a reader I generally don't interact with them, so as a writer I'm wary of adding too many.
The only CTA I have added recently is a link to comment on posts here on Mastodon, to make discussion easier.
