Disengage: Opting Out to Reclaim Your Life from Spammers, Scammers, Intrusive Marketers, and Big Tech

This is great!

And thank you for the reminder to dig around until I find that obscure forum post that had the wiring diagram and instructions on how to disable Starlink on Subarus.

I take the BEST naps right after my Vyvanse kicks in. Usually only for 20-30 minutes, but it’s very restful.

Then I pop up and have normal energy levels.

Infidelity is somewhat common but I would say it’s not “normal” at all to openly discuss and laugh about it at dinner with a bunch of people that you haven’t seen for years.

Seriously- wtf is wrong with these people? That one person sounds especially horrible.

Also - don’t go to any more reunions. I’ve managed to avoid 40 years of that shit and I like to believe that I’m happier for it!

Agreed…Lemmy slightly reminds me of the early days of Internet forums/chatrooms/etc.

Yes, I’m old.

Oh shit….I need to go get that!

(Speaking of books …. time to go see if that fancy hardback edition of Cibola**Burn is ever going to get released.

Right?!

That’s exactly right; your continuous effort (and mine) happens to be different.

It’s just internal and invisible to others, but it’s still happening constantly.

I do my absolutely best work a couple of hours before the big project is due.

I might have had a few weeks to do it, but nooooo. I don’t even really get started until the night before.

I do think it’s the added “element of danger” that kicks my brain into overdrive.

The rest of the time, I’m in a quasi-befogged state. Perhaps during that boring time, I’m saving up energy to handle the “danger” before going back into my little trance.

I’ve been weirdly extremely successful once I figured out how to work with this tendency, instead of fighting it.

This is exactly why I have a complex system of alarms set up on my phone 🤦‍♀️

CBD:THC 1:1 with the THC part being either hybrid or Indica (I prefer hybrid, YMMV)

I avoid sativa like the plague. It spikes my anxiety like nothing else

That’s a great point - my brain is always flippity-flopping but you’d never know it by looking at my RBF
