My modus operandi

There should be a statement, a mission statement for my remaining time as it is these days that is, after the way these times are, it'll go swiftly.

Movies

The wedding between quality and quantity shall be enforced, but not strictly, there should be room for not so great things to add context.

With the streaming services that offer the types of things i'm not especially keen on for any given phase, they regardless allow some much needed oxygen, my short time when i only had the best streaming service was like not having enough air, like being sealed up in a coffin.

It's a solitary thing, like reading a book, in these social media days there's a common tendency to use whatever you're into socially, well that is for me very much curbed, and is what i use SW for. Conversation about movies shall for me be very brief, because the love of it began and grew initially in solitude, that means i never learned how one goes about talking extensively about what interests. And it's like i don't have the learning capacity for that. Only when it's brief, can i swing it.

Streaming

Streaming has and is and hopefully for a long time is revolutionizing things for me, which is always about movies. There is such a plenitude at my fingertips now, it's sometimes almost overwhelming in an ecstatic sense. Hence the drive, the primal drive is to cram as many views of films i've never seen before as possible down my eyes, ears, and mind, with some instances of seeing what i've seen before, because when one sees the same thing in a different time in their life again it's a very different movie.

But time is fastly moving by, as i said a little while ago in a comment to something, my age is fatalistically 30 years more because i'm totally dependent on those who are roughly 30 years older than me.

Time then is always a pressing issue, films, an art form defined in part by time is the perfect fit, owing to its ironic overlap to what could be seen as a nemesis.

A little bit goes a long way

SW is also for just a little bit of interaction, which is for me like being, as i often and more and more want to disappear into movies, being could be said is a thing i escape pointedly from. But it wouldn't be safe to cut off this radiating pulsating source of being, as i would then drift too far from being and that would interfere with how i function, the motor and vocal skills primarily. So i wish this post to explain how i wish to operate. I think i lost a friend a couple weeks ago because i wasn't doing anything, and it's a concern of mine about inadvertantly angering anyone. The scope and reach of who i commiserate here is small for sure, but dear to me, even when i don't do anything for a period of time.

My job and my family is films

Productive members of society normally have things that take up their time, as Nietzsche said, a career is a backbone, it's what keeps you from going crazy and a hindrance to society. This is what films, and reading shall and has been for me. Along with sleep, these are what keep me in line. Ever restless, i hope to normalize my intentional conscientious usage of time, so that when i do have a little SW to do, i'll be more in the moment, and have better quality interactions.

Love to my cyber family ......:)
