it's fucking hot and i'm bothered, haven't moved much since I plopped my ass down this morning on the sofa, and opened claude to start working on a sales page for a course I'll only be able to record next monday (AC too noisy). it's the fifth heat wave day, the whole apartment is now made of hot walls, the tiny cushions on my headphones are falling apart and, of course, I haven't slept well in ages.
imagine that, and then hitting your claude limit for the day, just short of one or two (or 10) perfectionist-modifications. if only you had a couple more tokens...
I suspect Anthropic makes a lot of money in situations like these. I was close to buying a $100/m subscription.
luckily, I needed to pee
while going from my living room to the toilets, I go past the painting I started weeks ago. it's full of colors, and possibilities I can't picture.
the heat makes you do things, like taking up the pastels and starting to carve out a cathedral/glasshouse in the top right corner of that painting. and then, while you're at it, a swarm of red butterflies too, on the left. suddenly, you've been painting for 15 minutes, and your hands are full of colors.
when you run out of tokens, it's time for art.
