  • New is probably different for me, only meaning new to my library, but usually radio.

    There is new music on radio, but I usually don’t listen to those stations. But when I did, I got some recent music from there too. However for me where music peaks is the 80s and 90s.

    Other way is simply stuff I hear others listening to near me, and then Shazam it. Which is why for example Brooklyn by Glockenbach reminds me of very specific road section and SOR C 9.5 (bus).



  • On the other hand, I now have free time I would have otherwise not planned for.

    So I can think of what ambitious thing I want to do or learn, spend the day deciding on it, and then “maybe tomorrow” it for 5 years until I finally forget.
    Over 3 years ago at some point I decided to learn C++ and Japanese (I had free time). I’d still kinda like to, at least C++, the human language to learn has changed, but I don’t quite have time today, so maybe tomorrow. (Not made up)









  • Family and blood relation means absolutely nothing.

    It’s just that people decided that due to blood relation and marriages a certain set of people should not only know each other, but like each other and put up with each other’s bullshit for far longer than for other groups like friends.

    Meanwhile these relations are no different from being coworkers.

    Similarly, lacking this blood relation doesn’t matter aside from family anamnesis (and perhaps organ/bone marrow transplants), in case of adoptions.
    I don’t understand why people go through so much struggle for their kids to be “their own” while there’s many waiting and hoping to get adopted. People don’t think anything special about adopting a cat or dog, after all, there is no other way, and yet they’ll fully love their pet. But suddenly when it’s small humans, which is even the same specie, it matters a lot.

    I don’t understand if people really feel something towards having really similar DNA, but I don’t see any logic in it.
