Left the office for 40 minutes and had an Americano from my local coffee shop. This is game-changing.

i’m so guilty of just sitting in front of my computer while i eat my lunch, but sometimes it’s good for me to step away, actually enjoy my meal, and take a breather

I am not working ONE SECOND at lunch time. You will not be finding me ANYWHERE near my desk.

I have an hour to myself during the work day and I intend to NOT look at any work, my screen, my emails; be physically away from the desk at all costs! No one can talk to me, I can't pick up the phone and I'll maybe see a text if it's urgent. No one's lives are on the line though. Need to enjoy my break each day!!

I'm writing an essay and I've come up with three antidotes to overconsumption.
1. Consume critically. I don't care how many books you read last year - how does your favourite author use literary devices to tell their story? How does your favourite film director create a mood? Figure this out.
2. Create anything. And I really mean anything. Bake a cake, write an essay, knit a scarf. This is probably the best antidote to overconsumption because it preoccupies you, but it also helps develop some respect for what it takes to do the things that you consume.
3. Connect with people. It doesn't need to be that deep. DM your favourite content creator that you like their stuff. Comment on people's PI.FYI recs. If you enjoy consuming another person's content, letting them know is just a nice thing to do (and helps avoid parasocial relationships).

Last Monday I took a day off work (paid!) to go to the cinema with my friend and watch three films all in one go - A Complete Unknown, Babygirl and Nosferatu. We went out for coffees and dinner between films, but it was fun to make an outing of it while catching up on the newest films. Try and space out the screenings strategically so you don’t end up spending 12 hours out and about like we did.

I ain’t ordering pizza delivery in this economy. I’ve got a go-to pizza dough recipe that never fails, it takes 1.5 hours to make including dough-rise time, and at this point I prefer it to most restaurant pizzas.
