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?
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 thinking the opposite, I might just become a member of a political party next year and try to make a little bit of a difference.
become homeless and go off-grid
might write a manifesto
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.
Just keep my head down and keep plugging and watch a lot more Bob Ross. Happy little clouds.
Going to keep doing what I’m doing now: invest every dollar I can spare and ride the coattails of the rich bastards in charge. Hoping to hit my early retirement number in four-to-eight years and have a lot of time to read, game, and enjoy my life afterward.
We’ll see, though. Trump failed so spectacularly in his first term that it’s important to keep some cash to the side in case there’s a market crash. Buying stock at 90% discounts in March 2020 and then waiting a few years paid off my student loans.
For those who don’t know, there are literal ETF’s that follow the investment choices of major legislators, like Nancy Pelosi (ticker: NANC) and Ted Cruz (ticker: KRUZ), so you can, literally, invest legally in our federal legislators’ insider trading.
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.
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.
Yoga with Adriene?
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!
It’s their body their choice. Don’t choose for them.
dude shut up, I said nothing wrong
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.
Same. The more I block the better I feel, honestly.
