If seeing someone 4 days consecutively is seeing them 4 days in a row, does that mean seeing someone every Monday of a month is seeing them 4 days in a column?

        Gotta remain positive and see the glass half full, or January 2nd depending on the cell format.

          I don’t think I’m ready for that. In fact, I think I’m just going back to individual delimited text files to store every record separately using a custom encoding I made up.

          I’ll add arbitrary folders to split them up based on inconsistent logic and never make backups.

            Did you know you can also store your data on random pieces of paper of various sizes and shapes, and pile them on the kitchen table? You also get bonus points, if you write/draw the data using colorful crayons! I call it the CLUTTER format which stands for: Chaotic Loosely Unstructured Tangled Tornado Explosion Records. It’s a new data storage method, and I’m pretty sure it will catch on.

        That’s only moving in the third dimension without moving in any other.

        If you have movement in all 3 dimensions, you get January 1, February 6, March 13, April 25.

        Thats diagonally and stacked.

    If you see someone on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, that counts as only three days in a row, since Monday is on another row. If you see somebody on four consecutive Tuesdays, that would be four days in a column.

          Looking at my life calendar every day for a few months really kicked my life into gear.

          My advice is just open it up and look at it once per day. You don’t have to do anything else. Make sure it’s one where the current week is marked.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
