  • I’m new to this and it seems interesting. I use https://bookwyrm.social/ to track my books. I’m unemployed right now and my priorities is to get a job, which means most books are related to that future job where I’m a billionaire. The best so far are:

    • Head First Design Patterns : it’s a good software development book, and most “Head First” books are nice to read, and won’t give you headaches.
    • Designing Your New Work Life : it’s a bit different from the other motivational books I have read so far, and it gives you an alternate point of view of work and the workplace. This book is not preachy and shows interesting advice on how you can experience (or “reframe” as they say) your daily job.

    I stopped reading the “Bullet Journal Method” because it was filled with useless motivational quotes, the kind you can read on Instagram, while giving absolutely no useful advice or method.











  • I’m not into psychology stuff but it is NOT normal.

    My father is narcissistic but it’s not one minute or the other. He acts nice in front of other people, and abusive when he is only with me. Like he would say I’m the greatest programmer ever when talking about me, but would tell me that I’m a failure and I don’t know how to use a computer when I visit him and no one else is at home.

    Suffice to say that if my mother dies first, I won’t talk to him anymore and he’ll be alone. But he will still complain that I abandoned him because I’m a bad guy.
