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?
I wrote out 1 check per month to my son’s (4y/o) dance studio. I shall initially write the wrong year on every check from now through April.

Focus more on studies. The last semester has been an absolute bore, the topics of this semester should be much more exciting and challenging
Think about all the things I’ll plan to start doing once 2026 rolls around.
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.
Yoga with Adriene?
Her or Cassandra.
Great choices. I like that their pets make cameos in their videos. Adriene’s dog looks so zen’ed out, and Kassandra’s kitty is cute. Cheers.
Good for you it is super fun!I love yoga challenges and have done some with neighbor yoga groups, school moms, etc.I like yoga with Tim.
Just keep my head down and keep plugging and watch a lot more Bob Ross. Happy little clouds.
Work is going to start providing lunch for all employees every working day, so I expect I’m gonna have to have a resolution to actively hit the gym more than I do now. I’ve always been a bit stingy with my portions for lunch which helps me to keep thinner, but if work has a nice hot lunch every day I am going to have to work harder.
Another option is to try OMAD. You’ll save a ton.
OMAD?
One meal a day, a form of intermittent fasting. I have personally been doing it for about a year and a half, being more lax around holidays, and seen great results for weight loss. The doctors are generally happy with my blood too so far
I like the window version of intermittent fasting. I give myself 4-6 hours a day in which I can eat. Cold coffee and milk (50 - 50 of each) at the start and then ends with a big meal. But to each their own.
I am hiatus on it until after the new years, but for the month or so I was on it I felt and slept way better.
Cry about the continued march of time and my mortality.
Then afterwards!!

Work on a project I’ve been meaning to put more effort into. I’ve had ideas for some time now of trying to “invent” a device to help me with a sometimes extraordinarily difficult task at work. Solutions for the task already exist, but are incredibly expensive (tens of thousands of dollars or more) and my workplace doesn’t seem to be inclined to go that route.

Work up the courage to ask my work bestie to hang out outside of work sometimes soon! It necessitates hanging out with children which I’m not necessarily always a fan of, but I can go through it if it’s important to my friend. Sometimes work gets a bit busy or stressful and it would be cool to make memories outside of work. We’ve hung out only a few times ever. Idk!
Yeah, the political shit sucks. But since there’s nothing I can do about it, I’m just a bit “meh” on the whole thing tbh. It’s not anything I have the power to fix. So I’m just going to do my best to ignore it! Not really on my radar at the current moment, but it definitely was during the elections themselves. Idk we’ll see. Always best to just try to think about other things!

I’ll buy a new calendar

I have my lemmy client set to block any items with the word Trump in it. Hence, your question made it through. It’s been a blissful few months, not hearing a thing about him.
This year, I’m going to focus on growing my business, and deepening my relationships. Family and close friends.
Same. The more I block the better I feel, honestly.
Going to keep doing what I’m doing now: invest every dollar I can spare and ride the coattails of the rich bastards in charge. Hoping to hit my early retirement number in four-to-eight years and have a lot of time to read, game, and enjoy my life afterward.
We’ll see, though. Trump failed so spectacularly in his first term that it’s important to keep some cash to the side in case there’s a market crash. Buying stock at 90% discounts in March 2020 and then waiting a few years paid off my student loans.
For those who don’t know, there are literal ETF’s that follow the investment choices of major legislators, like Nancy Pelosi (ticker: NANC) and Ted Cruz (ticker: KRUZ), so you can, literally, invest legally in our federal legislators’ insider trading.
The same thing I do every year. Try to take over the world!
Pinky and the Brain!

“Are you pondering what I’m pondering?”
“Uh, I think so Brain, but this time, you wear the tutu.”
Not as funny when we currently have multiple billionaires actively aiming for this exact goal…
Ok Stewie
More like The Brain, no?
I want to fix my adhd, I’ve beed delaying it for like 6 months :(
There’s not really a fix for something like that, it’s more about learning to work with it
Yeah but at least now I know what to do to improve my life
become homeless and go off-grid
might write a manifesto
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
Good for you man. Setting boundaries is the way the go.
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!
It’s their body their choice. Don’t choose for them.
dude shut up, I said nothing wrong
Best of luck! Weed can be enjoyable but you don’t need it to enjoy things.
That’s cool, but cold turkey is just making it harder on yourself for little to no gain. U less you just have no self control, tapering would be better for you and your body. As others have said, CT can actually just be setting yourself up for failure.
Or not, weed is one of the easiest to cut out so it’s not a big deal compared to benzos or opioids of course.
