inOur club picked a 900 page book with 2 weeks left in the month, and 4 people quit
A buddy of mine had the same thing happen with a 700 pager and his group split it into chunks with a check in halfway through. Turns out people just needed a deadline that was not the whole book.

inHot take: I binged 14 seasons of a show in 4 days and now I can't watch anything else
Man I feel this in my soul. What worked for me was switching genres completely, went from a heavy drama binge straight into dumb comedies and cooking shows for like a week. Your brain needs a reset from that slow burn stuff, so give it something with zero commitment where you don't care about the characters at all. Took me about 10 days before a normal show could hold my attention again.

inHit 200 episodes of One Piece last night and realized I started this show back in 2019
Totally guilty of that, I just let the episode count drift and hope for the best.

inI finally walked through a Micro Center in Cambridge and watched a tech fix a bent CPU pin in 10 minutes
That bit about the card taped to his monitor listing the three tools and how often he replaces them is the real story here. Nobody talks about the wear on the tools themselves, like how a needle gets a tiny bend after a few dozen pins and suddenly you're the one causing damage. Half the bent pins I've seen came from someone using the same tool way past when they should've tossed it.
