This isn’t really a resolution kind of a question, it’s more like a question about what you’re looking to do once certain events kick in.

As I’ve been alluding to some people I know, I will be politically mute to the best of my ability once the Inauguration of commander shithead of chief is sworn in. Every news outlet I know, will be blocked and muted. Because I know they’re going to be back to following every breath of Trump and his cronies and I’d like to never hear it again as much as possible.

From there I’m going to be living in an entirely different world, parallel to the real one. Basically saying autopilot is going to manage the real world things and I’m just going to be grasping to escapism.

Anything you have in mind?

    2025 will be a busy year for me.

    Just bought raw land and waiting for the septic install at the moment (Might be a few weeks away).

    Going to buy shipping containers, get my storage stuff moved to the raw land, get an RV to live in while we build our house, and make a nice garden with a green house.

    Excited to be off grid with the goal of being self sufficient.

      I’m sure you’ve researched a bunch already, but be careful moving into the shipping containers before remediation is done. I heard the paint used in shipping containers causes toxic vapors.

        I won’t be living in the containers, just using them as storage. Thanks for the warnings though, I will limit my time in them. I did want to make a workshop in there, but after adding lots of vents.

    I’ll finally power through the Korean course I bought on Udemy this year. And maybe also learn the instruments I bought two years ago (keyboard and drum machine).

    …who am I kidding, I probably won’t do any of those things. 🤣

    Gonna quit weed. Cold turkey. If I don’t have control over my consumption now, I think that’s a sign I need to stop until I do have that ability again, if ever.

      COVID gave me a weed allergy that made me quit cold turkey. I haven’t had any in a few months. I do miss it, there have been many times (like the start of November) when I would’ve appreciated it, but I’m scared to trigger symptoms again.

      If nothing else, my tolerance has reset

      Why not quit now? Like, today, right here, right now. If you can’t quit now, why would it be easier in few days?

      Honestly dude, you set this artificial boundary because today’s you just wants to throw off this responsibility onto next year’s you. Don’t be a dick for yourself!

    Hit the protest scene in my city and start some chaos, and work off some spite.

    and boy, is there some spite to work out…

    On more personal goals, sell a lot of stuff and downsize, become more mobile and stockpile more cash and assets so I care a lot less about setbacks or surprise bills.

    Going offline on Jan 1st. For at least 4 years. If things get bad enough even after doing that, then I’ll take it further.

    I’m starting a 30 day yoga challenge, I’m starting a 52 week self discovery journal, I’m going to learn a new topic for 1 month. I might be doing something else, I need to check my bujo.
