I’m sure there are things that I could afford to do less of. The one huge thing that comes immediately to mind is procrastinating. I could really afford to cut back on that. Imagine how much stuff I could get done if I just did it. Wasn’t there a daily writing prompt about procrastination? Or was it just my answer to one of the questions? I don’t know. Regardless, I procrastinate a lot and could benefit from doing less of it.
What else should I add to the list? I could do less bitching and moaning about things that don’t really matter. That might make life a little easier for people who get stuck listening to me as I bitch and moan. I could watch less TV. I don’t want to (I’m watching an episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine* as I write this) but doing so would probably be good for me.
One thing I won’t be doing less of is pointing out examples of American fascism. For example, why hasn’t everyone, including a certain orange pile of fascist goo, who participated, planned, or caused the January 6 coup attempt in jail for the rest of their natural lives yet? Coming up on three years later, it sure looks like certain fascists are getting away with trying to overthrow the United States of America’s legally elected government, doesn’t it? Of all the crimes people manage to get away with, that seems like one that… you know… shouldn’t.
*Deep Space Nine season three episode 21. The one where the Cardassian and Romulan secret police forces team up to attack the Dominion. The end of a classic two-parter.
