A weeknote because Tanvi is scary

I finished all the work for my Public Policy course. It was a lot of work and it was tiring because I didn’t really connect with the coursework. I’m happy I don’t have to work on it anymore.

I switched from hyprland to swaywm. I know that the longer I use something, I feel the need to contribute to it’s development and I’d rather not put that energy into hyprland, given how toxic the community is. This has broken my workflow a little but I’m hoping I’ll make it work in due time. Notably, swaywm does not have opacity controls or animations out of the box, which is bugging me quite a bit.

I am no longer friends with someone I once held very dear to my person. It feels rough. They continued to ignore me and not communicate with me and wanted to continue being friends with me “passively” but that didn’t sound too appealing to me. I’m still angry but I know I can’t be for too long.

I found Nemo’s post about why he left Bangalore while I was writing about PROGA and I’ve been panicking since. We have gotten used to these instances of incompetence in the system we pay to run and I worry that I will settle for this unfixable, unquestionable incompetence in the world.
