I grabbed a banglejs a while back for cheap embedded funzies, and it’s really stellar as a hackable companion device that you don’t use much, or at least in fairly passive or niche ways. Espruino is really cool though, and that’s the heart of the project.
I wonder how this compares as a higher-end (maybe only other?) FOSS watch, mostly on the battery/power ratio. I actually don’t know much about the pebble design.
I really feel like I could’ve written your whole post myself, word-for-word. The isolation (which I might presume seems to come from inside and everywhere else at once), a fundamental need for social fulfillment that’s practically in spite of yourself, nebulous senses of cyclical futility, remembering, wanting, knowing, seeing, and still not being able to reach, it feels like a unique struggle to be in.
You tell me if I’m projecting in between the lines, but damn. Not going for pep here, just an observation, but maybe it’s not so unique after all.
And friends don’t let friends call friends bad friends, friend. Everyone’s a bad friend, that doesn’t make you a bad friend. We need good friends more than they need us, anyway. I don’t really know what I’m saying anymore.
In his defense, teenagers are annoying as fuck.

I’m so sorry
It’s communism when the workers seize the means of production. The thing is, this is not a workers’ government.
You got it lol. I’m the same way there too, I kind of meant that I bet they didn’t say it, so neither should you (we). Screw the pardon, I’m glad you shared your mind! Heartbreak is real, and it doesn’t even have to be about romance.
Personally, I’ve always felt like I just feel differently. Like other people can separate themselves from something I can’t; I stay attached. And usually there comes a point where a part of me says “you’re too invested in this” and tries to cut-and-run. Somehow with all that I’m still a romantic and see so much more, yet struggle to see anything in myself.
I’m not sure whether I’d be more or less surprised if that’s still on point for you. The older I get, the more I realize we really do live in a society, and maybe that’s what keeps me going.
