  • How you look doesn’t make you a man. You could literally have all those physical traits and be a woman or non-binary.

    Why is it rude to confirm how you self identify? Is it that horrible being trans or non-binary that people shouldn’t even confirm that you’re cis? How do you think trans people feel when someone assumes their gender based on how they look?

    Wow we got the manliest man man over here! Women love him and he gets all the pussy!



    • limited IRL social contact - social interactions really burn me out due to having to mask (autistically, not covid masking)
    • focusing on self care - i know this isnt really typical of goblin mode but ignoring the needs of others and spending all my energy on taking care of myself. i stop caring about work and other obligations so I can focus on recovery. showering, eating, etc before doing anything else
    • cutting down on hobbies / replacing them with NEET stuff. video games, TV, etc all the classic depression hobbies are low effort and make brain chemicals go brrr
    • girl dinners and depression meals - eating well does help you feel better but cooking takes a lot of energy for me because i really enjoy doing it and if i put the effort in i’ll spend hours making elaborate food. ideally find easy to make and healthy meals.


  • Smoke lots of weed and go goblin mode regularly, ideally before burnout begins. Prevention is the best medicine.

    Being aware that you’re about to burnout before you do allows you to prepare and minimize the damage. Figure out some warning signs that happen before you burnout: e.g. you start feeling less inclined to do things you enjoy, you start sleeping more hours, etc. If you’re gonna burnout, start taking on less tasks and start setting smaller goals and expectations of yourself.

    This is assuming that you can actually lessen your workload somehow. Idk how to stop burnout if you have no choice but to be worked to death.

    Also regular exercise helps build your capacity for work in the long term, and becomes something you can reduce/drop when times get tough.

    Edit: also cutting out alchohol helps me. the smoking weed recommendation might not necessarily be a good one. weed helps me get thru the burnout but makes my depression worse
