It amazes me that people (myself included) sometimes refuse to realize the part they play in creating and/or perpetuating their own problems.

Part of me really does just want to be a hermit, live on a bunch of property in the middle of nowhere with my dogs, read, write, draw, and most importantly, not deal with people’s bullshit.

What’s your favorite time of day?
As with most of my answers to these prompts, it depends.
In general, I prefer nighttime and evening hours. Everything feels calmer, less rushed. That also seems to be when my creativity spikes. I honestly don’t care to know why (astonishing, I know!); it has simply always been that way. In this rare instance, I see no need in questioning how my mind and body prefer to operate.
However, because I live in a world where working hours are in the 9-5-ish range, I have to adapt if I want to get anything useful (in the “adulting” sense) done. That said, given the choice, I like to get errands, appointments, chores and such done as early as possible so that I can focus on my own projects and passions at the time when I am most creative.

I saw a reflection of my elbow. It looks pointier than I remember. I checked my other elbow too, same thing.

I’d like to know why people often try to change a system or program to make it so that people can’t do a particular thing rather than to teach them why they shouldn’t do said thing. I just don’t understand people’s aversion to teaching and explaining things properly.

Tell us about the last thing you got excited about.
The last thing I got, and am still, excited about was the launch of Peterson Academy. I love to learn, and the fact that I can take any course and not be tied to a narrow degree program is freaking fantastic!!

Almost all of the noise that you hear coming from nature is the sound of animals and bugs trying to get laid.
