Your post here? It’s a rainbow.

I wish I could reach into a bag for an answer, much of the fatigue your describe I feel too. In hindsight, the bag of gold seems naively optimistic, but you could never have convinced me of it yet.

What I can reach for is that there are still flakes, chunks, maybe entire ziploc bags of gold or gold color substance out there. I find them in curiously links, accidental clicks, etc. But those shiny bits are also surrounded by larger bags of poop.

And here the analogy slides down the hole.

It’s a shimmer of gold to see you post here, so rather than bemoan all the undones, the teardowns, I prefer to celebrate every glimmer like this as a net positive.

You still got the eye for gold, it just takes a bit more squinting.
