| 40+ year old on a 4-wheeler
equals injury.
saturday evening, i got into a 4wheeler accident. buddy's 1988 honda fourtrax does not have brakes. i knew this. gotta ride up/down hills in first gear.
i had forgotten this, started rolling downhill, went "OH FUCK", switched to first and the bike lurched forward HARD - which pinned my left calf into a tree. didn't break the skin thankfully.
pic is from the morning after (sunday). bonus feet as a treat.
I've been doing the "winblows" ricing game to pass some time and in hopes of FINALLY getting used to a tiling manager that isn't autistic as fuck and requires you to recompile it every time you make a change.
the below video is from five years ago. it's only gotten worse because it's now the "hip" and "cool" thing to do if you've got fuckyou money. which is like all of them.

| replacement power brick for GB-BRi3-10110
the ai bullshit has hit [COMPANY] hard. there was a meeting this morning going over how they're going to implement ai into every product. the relevant part was them saying they want to get Automation Anywhere integrated into ServiceNaow strictly to handle low-level tier1 issues via chatbot or ai agent responding directly to a ticket.
in theory, that sounds great because it pulls data/incidents/resolutions from internal JIRA and Confluence and would respond accordingly.
it's bad because that almost nixes an entire tier1 team's duties and responsibilities.
i feel that entire team is going to be laid off. which is extremely ghey because there are a lot of incredibly capable people on that team. there's also a handful that are dead weight, but they don't deserve to be made obsolete by a clanker.

the x870 motherboard replacement came in.
time to manifest a full-bore panic attack when it's not the mobo and is the cpu/ram or some other bullshit.
i'll get around to putting it back together probably this weekend.

getting older sucks. having unchecked mental bullshit also sucks. getting older then having a fucking mental collapse because you cannot understand why people would want to celebrate you sucks.
shits been rough lately. my "new normal" is a breakneck race to the bottom. wife's health, my health, dad's health.. all no bueno. our "new normal" is not normal by any stretch of the imagination. there's very little time for calm; it's mostly unchecked chaos at any given moment.
mental state has been in the pits since dad's stroke in october. it wasn't great before that, but has since gotten a lot worse. people ask "is there anything i can do?" and i genuinely do not know. so i say "if there is, i'll let you know." i never let them know. seeing a therapist, and while the talks are productive, putting those suggestions into play while living life are incredibly difficult.
it's all about "tone" of voice and regulating my patience. both of which seem impossible. patience is at a net negative.
went to a buddy's house on sunday with my wife for my birthing day celebration. i broke down. it wasn't pretty.
came to the shitty realization that you can't do everything alone all the time. there will be a breaking point. seems i found it.
