Had a brief argument with my dad yesterday and I think that impacted me negatively. Felt really down on myself and spiraled into the ground.

Best protocol for days like this would be to read a bunch of engaging nonfiction books. Or listen to podcasts, or something.

It's silly to feel worthless given all the skills and somewhat-interesting-things I've done. Still, everything is relative to expectations. Perhaps I can have lower expectations while still trying my hardest, then I'll be pleasantly surprised instead of constantly ashamed.
