Playing guitar while doing drugs. And reading.
MY HOMELAB KUBERNETES CLUSTER!!!
And sailing. And memes of course.
I have several Kubernetes clusters at work. They seem to have the opposite effect. Please advise, I do not have a sailboat.
The trick with Kubernetes clusters is to build and run cool, free open source services for yourself and others, because you're passionate about solving problems with tech! It's hard to do that at work because usually work is just exploitation of customers mixed with exploitation of workers and it all feels shitty. Of course, we all have to survive somehow, so do what you gotta do, but don't hate the tech.
I know a couple places with cheap sailing club memberships. One works out to about $30 per month, but you can volunteer for a free membership, and another is just $75 a year. Maybe you can find something like that, and if not, then consider just moving to a new city.
Drugs and woodworking.
Are you Jesus?
Thats Mr. Of Nazareth to you.
In that order?
I like to switch up the order.
I'm taking a page from Buddhists by purposefully refusing to fill up that yearning. Not like I could do it anyways, I have no friends and no money and barely any family or time.
Life is suffering
Stick some potatoes in the ground and watch them turn into more potatoes
Circle of life
I try to make things when I feel a yearning or emptiness. Baking, painting, writing, anything that I can make with my hands.
And drugs of course.
drugs
Some days all I do is watch the sky
My soup only yearns for pizza, weed & wings. I order accordingly.
Sounds like a banger of a soup.
the 'soup' typo is perfect here lol
Drugs
Hiking, gardening, baking, painting, writing.
I play music. I sit silently and think. I read. I watch and listen to things.
what kind of yearning are we talking about?
yearning for purpose? for love? for a certain lifestyle?

Alcohol, sex, shows (concerts), and video games I suppose.
I do things that make my soul whole. Like spend time with my kids and just absolutely fuck around on a computer terminal. The soul does not need money, nor power, nor standardized progress of any kind.
Bike rides, woodworking, video games, and cats.
I learned to ignore it, it's there like a traffic noise.
I've found doing things for others really helps.

Literature 📚
Napalm! Lots and lots of napalm
coding, music, or gaming.
memes. lots of memes
and drugs sometimes (HRT)
Guitar.
I generally attempt to create offspring and then seek a surrogate when it inevitably fails
Sometimes I open the hearts of all living things and let their true nature out
Why?
Just Cos.
Lots of hope honestly I suppose, still, somehow. Working on music, spacing out to music, reading, cycling, basking in the sun or staring at the clouds, watching what the animals are doing, a bit jealous of their simple life, cooking up a good meal, psychedelics (though not so much lately), weed, gratitude everyday.
I don’t really. My career gives me purpose which makes it fade temporarily while I’m busy or tired.. Some days I just couch rot to build up my energy to be purposeful and lessen the awareness of it. It feels like accepting it and working with it is more realistic for me.
Food or dopamine depending on the kind of yearning
All sorts of puttering around.
