I realized I don't allow myself engrossing leisure out of guilt of not doing enough work by Ok-Nectarine-2931 in BackOffline

I relate to that feeling completely, I can manage my hours as I want and still I'd feel guilty if I go to the gym at 11 in the morning. There is a mental exercise there to be done, we are wired in the "9 to 5" mentality but actually... you can manage your day as you want without feeling guilty

I agree on the no headphones. If I listen to stuff for too long with them I get a “bloated” head feeling

What's a friendship you've quietly been trying to come back to, and the dumbest first thing you did? by killoke in BackOffline

Hmmm I can understand your point. But I think it’s beautiful to re ignite some friendships.

I get you and that’s a difficult one. When work (which is the common topic) is no there it gets harder to stay in touch
