I believe it is important for everyone to be gainfully employed. We must contribute to a productive society. The more emails we send, the more productive the society will be. The more productive society is, the more opportunities we will have to get promoted.
As my unemployed father always said to us before he left my family to start a new one, "Idle hands are the devil's workshop."

This goes against the grain of my anxiety riddled brain, but if you find yourself in a bout of unemployment I encourage you to lean in. From what I read, this very platform would not exist were it not for unemployment. Granted I know this perspective sounds like and is a privileged take, but just know I have no idea where next month’s rent is coming from. I find that the psychic terror of not making money creeps in when I’m most idle, so I try to do one or more of these things a day to keep that feeling at bay:
- Walk my dog
- Go to a museum
- Research for creative projects
- Make said creative projects
- Call a friend
- Go to the gym
- Read a book or long form journalism
- Cook
- Clean my house
Eventually I know that the capitalist grind will rear its ugly head, as it always does, but for a brief moment in time it’s nice to just shut the door on its face.

Don’t get me wrong, I love going to the beach in the summer but something about swimming holes hits different. There’s a sense of real nostalgia and joy that captures the true essence of summer. I grew up in Minnesota also known as the Land of 10,000 Lakes, so maybe this is a way to connect with my roots. There are lots of swimming holes to choose from even as close as New Jersey. One of my favorites is more-so a lake but it’s surrounded by mountains and has a hot dog stand. It’s called Bellayre Beach and it will make you feel like a kid again.
