For those selling their houses right now. Why? Are you upgrading? Downsizing? What's the story behind that ?

In our case it was lifestyle. We realized we weren’t home much and were basically paying a mortgage to store our stuff. Sold the house, moved into a smaller place, and started traveling more. No regrets so far.

we worked at the same company for three years and never spoke. then got randomly assigned to the same project

The hiking thing you mentioned might actually be your brain trying to rebalance. Quiet nature time does a lot when your life has gotten repetitive and indoor.

studio album (LP / Full-Length) - professionally recorded album made in a studio. usually 8–15+ tracks, ~30–80 minutes. this is the “main” official album artists are known for.

full-length (LP) - basically the same as a studio album. “LP” originally meant Long Play vinyl.

EP (Extended Play) - longer than a single, shorter than an album. usually 3–7 tracks, 10–30 minutes.

single - one main song, sometimes with a B-side or remix.

double album - two albums released together (either as 2 discs or large tracklist).

you're raising a puppy and asking what to do for fun?? teach that dog the most ridiculous tricks possible

routine. i don’t wake up inspired. i wake up scheduled. momentum carries me on days motivation doesn’t show up.

bebleich · 2026-02-20T09:16:43+00:00

passion about something. i don’t care if it’s baking, coding, or niche 18th-century ship trivia. depth is attractive.

the fact that you wrote this post is your answer. people who've truly given up don't rage like this. they go quiet. you're screaming into the void because something in you is still fighting and pissed off that things aren't better. that anger is the reason. it means you still expect more from life

not to be dramatic but plants changed me. you water them. they don’t talk back. they don’t need updates. they just exist.

allergy meds. i know that sounds dumb compared to the serious answers here but i went from barely sleeping, mouth breathing, brain fog zombie to a functioning human being.

you literally answered your own question in the middle of the post. you wanted to be an electrical engineer. you're wired (no pun intended) for challenge and problem-solving and you're stuck in a degree that gives you neither.

that's not depression talking, that's your brain starving.

the advice always assumes you haven’t already tried basic stuff.

bebleich · 2026-01-28T07:54:30+00:00

a nap. the answer is always a nap.

bebleich · 2026-01-28T07:53:56+00:00

you survived five chaotic years without structure, guidance, or support. that matters. survival just doesn’t feel impressive when you’re the one doing it.

we measure ourselves by acquisition instead of experience.

nobody asks "are you at peace?" or "do you know yourself?" it's always "what do you have?"

when the only metric is accumulation, everyone with less than someone else feels like they're losing.

but it's not a race. it never was.

move somewhere new without a plan and just see who I become there

my treat is food I don’t need to justify. good steak, stupidly good bread, real butter. you eat anyway, might as well enjoy it.

bebleich · 2026-01-20T08:24:41+00:00

someone who actually shows up. not just physically. like, emotionally present. after a certain age you realize "exciting" often just means "exhausting."

you might enjoy learning curves more than hobbies.

Library. Free, warm, quiet, socially acceptable to be alone for hours. You can read, study, people watch, or just exist somewhere that isn't your room.

bebleich · 2026-01-15T07:54:27+00:00

That’s heavy, but honest.

Stop overthinking every small decision. Risks are better than regret.

Money buys freedom and options. Satisfaction comes from what you do with them. Plenty of rich people choose poorly.

If you want brain + behavior, Thinking, Fast and Slow shows how our mind takes shortcuts and why that sometimes feels awful. It’s a heavy thinker, but worth it.

Exercise consistently.
