what an interesting concept: technology as a constraint forcing you to focus. not just focus: focus more than you naturally would. focus more than you're comfortable with. continue going doing keeping on, regardless of whether you're comfortable with how it's going, with what you're keeping. will it all fade at the end? yeah, definitionally it will. fuck: and a word + character + wpm counter at the bottom? really hitting all the unhealthy adictiveness buttons. or healthily addictive in the right quantities? what's the ld50 on a writing app? on an app of any sort? the most dangerous app? i wonder if it'll be entirely different than the most-regulated app, a la chemicals. fuck is that really all i can do? 2:30 worth of content, including rambling digressions? it's a very real possibility. this fades, faster than the normal recession to black/white.

to stay or go? i failed at ignoring politics, in spite of my success since protesting in 'free speech zones' at bush's reinauguration rnc in nyc. (found out years later that many other riders of critical mass got arrested) i'm convinced trump is going to win. it's bad: he's the president the average american deserves. the world doesn't, though; that's nearly narendra-modi-armani-level sad. and likely more negative at scale.
