Glamourization of Work

I’ll make this a short one. Mostly because the matter at hand is pretty straightforward. But, it seems like we are trying to glamourize through a certain cadence of perspectives, the dreadful reality which work involves. I mean, the bunch of posts we have on a certain platform exalting work and the workplace and whatmore, especially inside IT departments, is just astounding, as if working in this day and age would be one of the best things for your life.

Unfathomable Heroes

Sound Track: Tomb Raider Legend Manor Theme (Extended Edit)_ Lara Croft, Harry Dresden, or so many others one could think about… No, they don’t exist in our society (at least not as in Marvel movies and the like), and yet, they themselves seem to be so much needed for the breeding of our imagination and consideration of possibilities beyond the ordinary from which we live. On a random comment around the internet, a user said: “I know she is not real but she gave me comfort” and hoo boy, that resonated on so many levels, you can’t even imagine.

Why Hide?

Some people may feel compelled to reason as to why such hiding places like this one exist on the internet. I may give you a brief reason, at least as of my reasoning, as follows: because sometimes, one needs to refrain from being indulged with the burden of wearing the unnerving façade that we all share during our mundane and troubling day-to-day lives. We are sometimes obliged to take on the burden of carrying the weights of our choices, and how others perceive ourselves to be.

Forbidden Games

The tale I am ‘bout to tell is a bit harsh in terms of memories, but it is one of the reasons I believe we must thread lightly on the memorial grounds of the oldish paths we took. Games have a dear place in my heart, as I’ve always played them, and the idea of a “forbidden game”, for me, had never crossed my mind, up until half an hour ago.

Crushes and Unmatches

This one will be shorter because of the sleep deprivation I’ve been having over the last few days but… I was thinking about the whole situation with Crushes and Unmatches going on, and how that may lead up to a very high level of frustration on some young men and women who can’t seem to connect with others. Maybe it is just seasonal, or maybe due to your profile pictures, but considering then, and when one person can match quite rarely with another fellow from our species, and that gives a little spark of hope and connection, then, out of the blue, just as suddenly, it just vanishes with no impression of feedback whatsoever, it makes things really shaky and unstable.

Digital Anonymity

Funny thing though, that in the modern times which we find ourselves in, in order to be “truly” ourselves, somehow we thus need to dissociate from our own profile and personae. Lemme illustrate this with something I’ve faced twice recently… Two different people drew my attention for me “exposing too much” on social media, one on Threads, another one on IG. On both cases I was using my real personal account, thus, it was linked to my real name in the nickname, therefore, others could trace it back to me.

Meta Psychology

Off-topic: My computer died while I had left this piece open before so I don’t have the original paragraph of ideas I was working on, because it didn’t save. So, yeah, here’s a little mourning for myself about the lost original ideas of this text (not that they were very good anyways) but I digress… The situation is that last week (as in: the week previous of me writing this piece, and not really the “last week” in terms of you the reader reading it), I could attend a supervision with a few psychologists and saw two of them debating about the questions of “Meta Psychology”, or even of what could be said as a “Psychology of Psychology” in parts.

Strange Places

I must say how the world now seems to be heading into strange places. It seems that is not just myself that has been having difficulties with connection with people lately. I mean, most of my friends who I’ve been talking to which are single, or trying to meet someone, or just hanging out with the old folks, seem to have this sort of dissociation while trying to connect with others.

Book or Person?

Can a book be a better company than a person? Of course, I know there are certain cases and scenarios but… I feel as if some of us (myself included) are somewhat longing so much for a sort of human connection with other people, but barely being able to achieve this? I mean, if you’ve been before on dating apps and the like you might know what I am talking about.

Obsidian Soundfields

There is a place, which is not really a place per se, but rather a channel, a virtual segment of our reality, in a particular plataform which we use for sharing our videos. In there, there’s a sort of community which I dare to even call it home, which is OSF (Obsidian Soundfields). I’ve discovered it by accident, circa a year ago, in mid February or even March of 2024, I’m not really sure, due to having to deal with work assignments and not managing to focus enough to finish it in time.
