More like my next three months, but I'm kind of stupid.

Was thinking the same, they must write the year many times a day for them to update their "muscle memory" in a week.

some folks keep daily journals

Right, it can be very therapeutic I hear, and along with bullet lists help people focus.

it's a pretty cool habit, gives you a few minutes a day to focus on yourself and how you feel and, unlike in meditation, you also do something as you are thinking.

there have been many days i just kind of, existed during, and only at the end when i was writing in my journal i realised i've actually felt good/bad the entire time. It grounds you really well

Just add a forward slash ( / ) to the last year

Ta-da!!The year 2022 plus forward slash symbol added to the year 2 making it appear as the year 2024

Months. You misspelled months.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

HA! I'm still writing 19-- sometimes.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

I felt this was more common in elementary and middle school, but since high school and well I to college I barely every find myself writing the date on papers. But yeah, I hated reworking the muscle memory for the first couple weeks of the year.

How often are y'all writing the date by hand?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

If they're a student then probably daily

I can't imagine anything higher than high school enforcing hand written papers over typed. Even when I was in high school, back before smartphones and when most people didn't have a computer, most of my teachers required things to be typed up.

Calculus homework has entered the chat.

I have to do paperwork by hand daily.

My thoughts exactly.

With the release of a new LTS, I think I'll finally catch on a little sooner this year, just as soon as my Ubuntu based distro upgrades to v24.04.
