@Lanceblastoff1 My work capacity is the same, and my mood generally is too. The nature of the tasks has changed a lot going from working alone and unknown to managing all this. I used to get a lot more pure creative time.

@ckusellagussin Not saying I'm tired now. In fact part of what I'm saying is that you have to pace yourself - I've gotten pretty good at this over the years, so I don't burn myself out.

@aideaman1 Not a lot of haters in my life :) It's surprisingly nice. RW community is so chill.

@Banlish I exercise, and it's drawing from a different energy well than mental work. However I don't actually find that it gives me *more* mental energy. That said, I'm always pretty active so maybe it is and it would stop if I stopped. This is just my baseline.

@Banlish I think all the normal healthy body/healthy mind stuff will work. Exercise, reduce stress, sleep well, avoid drugs. It's just I've done all that for a long time so I can't say I have personal evidence they work since I've not really been without them. Insomnia kills me though.

Podcasts are named after the iPod, an obsolete technology. You used to connect your iPod to a computer to download podcasts, then listen to those while out and about. We still call them podcasts though.

@brazmogu We still use physical paper folders though. But yes you're right its not the only thing named after obsolete technology, but I was there when podcasts were invented!
