I feel you bro, insomnia is a removed. Its almost weekly where i dont sleep for a night sometimes two. Good luck with your day o7 hope it isn't too unbearable
I'm better now!
But having to rely on meds to sleep is annoying.
I need that CPAP machine soon...
Glad youre feeling better comrade o7
I also worry about relying on meds lol
Yeah, might hurt my liver, you know?
I'm trying to get a CPAP machine.
Also super off topic but: i notice you're pretty active and i wanted to ask if you've read society of the spectacle? Idk if you're much of a theory nerd but i made a post on the theory community and didn't get any responses so i thought i'd just ask someone directly. Was looking for some help understanding a particular paragraph as well as some wording ay the beginning. Would you be able to help or point me in the direction of someone or some place that could?
I wouldn't mind reading it! I was recommended it, as someone that's into Communications.
(I'm majoring in Communications, btw.)
Its fantastic so far but the author is french so he speaks in metaphor like 90% of the time. Idk if thats actually a french thing but it feels like it is lol. Anyway it means that i have to manually disect a lot of meaning behind each paragraph, few of them are easy to grasp at first glance. Its dense basically but im sure as a communications major you'll probably enjoy it
Im a physics major and pretty new to leftism so its been a while since i had to process writing like this lol. Throw some otherwordly calculus at me and i'll be fine but this shit is hard
I hope I'm not intruding here but I used to be very into Debord and situationists (my username is actually a reference to one of his films, in girum imus nocte et consumimur igni). Its been a while since I read through all of society of the spectacle, but if you want another opinion on a passage I'd be happy to try to help
Oh! A physics major, eh? You should definitely see if you can get into the "scienc-y" stuff produced by the Soviets post-1956.
That was the heyday of their science in general.
The attitude and drive towards nuclear physics and rocket science in the USSR is something I'm angry about missing out on tbh. Its frustrating knowing that i'll probably only use the knowledge and skills im developing to make money for someone instead of yk, improving peoples lives and advancing our understanding of the universe. I haven't yet looked into the specifics of scientific research in the USSR but I definitely will once im done cramming for this test lol
lol That last part of your post reminded me that I am also distracted by homework.
But yeah, definitely get on that.
My dad has a CPAP and i think its helped him? I vaguely remember my mother saying he hates it but that it helps a lot. Took some getting use to i think. Sleep apnea sounds like a removed though
It is! I have sleep apnea. I need something that will enhance the quality of sleep.
