    I’ve been feeling this recently. I think a lot of it is that going anywhere and doing anything these days feels like a series of faceless companies with their hands out. It’s all a series of fees that (for me) drains the joy from whatever I make plans for.

    Eh it’s like when you find someone cute and you wonder what it would be like dating them. But then you actually start dating them and you realize they’re a whole person, not just some cute scenarios you imagined in your head. You both know it’s awkward as hell and you’re both just waiting for it to be over. You can’t wait to go back home and shit in your own toilet, but instead you have to sit on a holeless chair with a full colon. The pressure isn’t bad enough to use the gross toilets there, but it’s enough that you’re thinking more about your poop than your date.

    Brain already gave me the Dopamine when I made the plans. There’s no more dopamine left to give me now that the plans are actually here. Now it’s just… work. Probably with… people.
