How do you cope with the fact that theres so many films to see books to read music to listen people to befriend and things to see and do and only so much time man I need time to go on pause for a bit

I don't. No seriously, this has previously been a huge ongoing issue for me. My advice? Give up. I don't mean this in a harsh way, I just mean that its literally impossible in the current attention economy. The broadening of mainstream Media beyond the limitations of 20th Century forms (novels, newspapers, cinemas, Broadcast TV etc.) means there is too much for you to meaningfully consume, especially when you are being manipulated into believing every new release is "must watch" and the internet means you are hugely overexposed to people, places, things and activities that demand your attention. Try flipping the script. Instead of saying "I'll read 20 books this year" or "I'll paint 50 mini figs this month" or whatever, aim to give up on as many things as possible. Ignore what you "should" be doing with your free time (excluding important stuff like work, paying bills, exercising, looking after family etc.) and instead try each thing for 20 minutes and it hasn't actively hooked you then just ditch it and move on and if you can't do the thing without spending more money, bounce it to the bottom of the list. Pretty soon you'll have a roster of things that interest you without costing you and the rate you quit stuff will slow. Sustain this for a year or so and you will have culled your "should" list massively, spent less money, accrued less crappy possessions and re-trained yourself to treat all this stuff as needing to earn your attention rather than an obligation to be met. Don't get me wrong, there are many things that we should try that are not pleasant but if something you skipped really is a "must do" that is going to improve your life, it will still be around at the end of this period for you to return to. There's nothing wrong with prioritising your own enjoyment now and then if you are on top of the essential stuff. TLDR: Cut yourself some slack, stop trying to "keep up" and instead make your attention something to be earned. (Disclaimer: I AM NOT A QUALIFIED THERAPIST, PROFFESIONAL LIFE COACH OR FUNCTIONAL HUMAN BEING. I am a slightly odd stranger on the internet so make sure you treat this advice as accordingly disposable. Or don't. You decide, that's the point!)

“She would have been proud of her hunting skills once, especially when she could show Brambleclaw how fast she could bring back prey. Now she couldn't even meet the deputy's gaze as he congratulated her. All her training, everything the thought she knew, was nothing but dust if she wasn't even a real Clan cat.”

I’m rereading the power of three, and the way the Erin’s wrote Hollyleaf perspective after she killed Ashfur is executed so well. In both lionblaze and jayfeather’s chapters you can see that they question who killed Ashfur, they’ll think things like “when we find out who killed Ashfur” or “what if sol killed him?”, but the writers never use phrases like that for Hollyleaf’s thoughts. On the first read through it just seems like the Erin’s are trying not to repeat themself, but you can see how much thought they put into it. While Hollyleaf still thinks a lot about Ashfur her it’s more about what will happen next, she never actually questions who killed him, Because she already knows. Before Ashfur body is found Hollyleaf is trying not to think about Ashfur, and starts to question “how far a cat should go to preserve the warrior code.” Instead of coming across as the guilt that this is, first time readers just think she’s nervous about the secret getting out. This is seen again later on when she is hunting. She starts to feel sick, and ashamed of her skills, we originally think that she feels sick thinking about death and how someone could break the warrior code in that way, but with more insight we know that those same hunting skills is how she killed Ashfur.

There’s so many more examples of this and idk if I explained that right but I’m finding it really cool to see all the clues and careful ways the Erin’s managed to keep the killer a secret while still giving us Hollyleaf’s POV. Lots of people discredit the writing in warriors, and yes it’s not perfect, but it’s definitely a lot better than most people think.

Anyway this was inspired by Hollyleaf’s doubts about her use of hunting skills. I can imagine the trauma from killing Ashfur stayed with her every time she catches prey.

Tailchaser's Song by Tad Williams has always been one of my favorite books. Highly recommend if you like Warriors but feel too old for Warriors.
