Anon practices time management

I once read someone make a point (more eloquently than me) that procrastination is your brain's internal bullshit detector. For example, if a lion were to break into your room right now, you would get the fuck up and flee no matter how lazy/neet you may be. Therefore the matters you procrastinate on are a big old bag of hooey (according to your mind).

The true big boss, king of my heart

During one of the lowest ebbs in my life, I subconsciously and unknowingly sustained myself simply by buying one extra dessert (ice cream, chocolate, something sweet and inocuous) for the doormen at my building. This small act of human bonding would give me enough energy to face tomorrow without dreading it, and little by little I was able to dig myself out of a deep hole.

The point of this parable is, do not underestimate the value of human connection! A very small act may turn someone's day around and that energy is reflected back to you in droves.

Israeli Media vs Western Media

Reply in thread

Good question! It is hard to find off-hand examples on English YouTube admittedly but below screenshot is representative of the kind of opinions you see brandished on Israeli media regularly and cheered on in Telegram channels. For context, Ofira Asayag is a major TV personality in Israel.

Edit: 'moderate' Israeli podcasters openly calling for erasing of all life in Gaza, asserting what they called "typical opinions" across the nation.
