As you get older, it’s important to schedule time to disassociate.
- This is why I take such long and frequent showers.

That might be good time management but its horribly inefficient.
Ive managed to get my morning autopilot down to such a science I spend my first half an hour of paid work still doing this.
- This is the way.

if you stare into the abyss long enough, the abyss stares back at you
- I wish my sleep paralysis demons were this friendly and comforting
  
  Mine want nothing to do with me and just huddle in ths corner by the door with their phones.
- I wish I hadn't seen this a few hours before bed...
  
  few hours? mango mustard 6 7 skibidi.

Say hi in work messager
Back to bed
- Even better: say good morning and change status in Teams to "busy" on the phone and let the mouse jiggler keep you from going "away". Never have to even leave the bed! Set the status to "away" again at 1700 once you're off the clock.
  
  Luckily we don’t use teams, so I can just go back to bed hahaha

This is why I love a good transit system. I can do this every morning in the train during my commute (much easier than telling my autistic self to change the morning routine to include a new thing in it. Tried it several times and never turned out fine).
- Much more efficient.
  I do it during my morning poop.
  
  you sit on the edge of your bed during your morning poop? /amber heard account found.
  
  Everyone, look out, this person has a regular poop routine.
- Yeah but you can't fap on the train. I mean, you shouldn't.
  
  Not with that attitude
  
  Trains used to be fun.

- For me it's a fight between saving time with car or being able to relax and read in public transit. Currently the time savings from a car beat the shit out of public transit, unfortunately.
  
  I'm lucky, in theory by car it should take me 30 mins to get to work, but traffic and parking make it a 1 hour trip if I'm lucky. If I'm not, it's 1.30h or more.
  Train + bike is a 45 minutes trip every time so it's a pretty easy choice.

When you are over 40 you have to do this while having chronic bodily pain and a ringing in your ears as well…
- Nah... In all seriousness, just exercise regularly and the pain goes away.
  
  And a bit of genetic luck also helps. I’m a flabby 40, but I don’t have backpain, two working knees and I’m flexible like a bendy straw. I’m more flexible than the skinny 20 year old intern at work.
  On the other hand my hair started turning grey when I was 12, so you win some, you lose some.
  
  My knee which feels like it exploded says otherwise.

  ME gets worse with exercise. Sucks big time.

Why do people do this?
- Existential dread after a grim reality crushes all hope.
  
  It's not always that bleak, at least for me. Sometimes it's just deep regrets, shame, trauma, that sort of thing.
- Gotta
- it's called "unwinding" and also staring into the abyss hoping to find answers about the future there to cure the mental depression and anxiety that dwells in us all (or most of us) since we don't know what the future will look like

So basically my cat wrecks my time management by hopping in my lap and head butting me. What a jerk 🥹

I’m always late :(

I was late to my 9 o'clock meeting this morning because I was making coffee before I looked at my calendar.

I just get late, don't care anymore
