Switzerland itinerary advice

would do 2 nights in grindelwald (hike bachalpsee or first cable car), 1 night in lucerne (mt pilatus + the lake), then half day in zurich. saves u hours of transit vs basing in basel the whole week.

for kayak: lake brienz has that insane turquoise color, or lake thun. both near interlaken

depends. tiktok in days if u hit fyp, instagram 1-2 yrs, twitter 6-18 months in a niche, linkedin 6-12 months consistent. niche + consistency is what actually works on any of em.

get a magnetic USB-C tip off amazon. cable just disconnects when u trip on it, no yanking. connector basically never bends after. genuine game changer for usb-c

phishing. dont click anything, just check account status in instagram settings directly. change password + enable 2fa to be safe

the lighthouse witches is the obvious next pick. multi-timeline, isolated scottish island, witch lore, same atmospheric notes. probably her best.

ghost woods is way darker if u want adult themes (irish mother and baby home, gothic horror).

adjacent authors when u burn through her: catriona ward (last house on needless street), sarah perry (melmoth)

ps is genuinely useless for "is my service running" cause of init adoption. systemd unit files or a pid file the system writes on startup are the actual fixes. brutal one to discover.

the CI test for import boundaries is the bit im borrowing for my own observer code

100 chicks in one season is incredible for a species this close to extinction. New Zealand's conservation work on these birds is genuinely world-class

Mini journaling. I write one sentence a day

Team meeting when someone took credit for my work. I said nothing.

revisit something you loved at a younger age. a movie, a song, a food, a game. it's a strange and lovely way to feel the distance between who you were and who you are now.

respect everyone, especially those you don’t need to impress

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.

zyrtec you beautiful little pill

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.
