      Even a Teams call where I know what to do and say and am fully versed in the topic. The whole day I’m like “got that thing at 11, can’t miss it”.

      Turns out the Sword of Damocles is not a parable about the precariousness of people in positions of power, it’s just a first hand allegory of a neurodivergent person with a scheduled phonecall in the the afternoon.
