    That’s the sensible thing to do. You can’t do everything. So if you’re going to fail anyway, you might as well do it lying down.

      What a terrible way to think. How about not trying to do everything all at once, but one thing at a time and enjoying it?

        I agree with you, you need to take manageable bites to even begin to get a grip on executive dysfunction. The downvotes seem extreme.

        1% more each day every day, baby.

          The downvotes are because we aren’t here to be critisized for our way of doing things. If that’s what we wanted, we’d have went to our very own parents. That energy isn’t well received here, obviously.

            I don’t see a critic, I see someone trying to help.

            At some point you need to choose agency and be your own parent. It takes a horrific amount of work and you need to choose agency like every fucking nanosecond which is exhausting but it’s already exhausting and horrific being depressed and screaming at yourself to stop staring at your phone and do something, anything, please, so you might as well get up and do five push-ups so you can say you moved your life 1% forward that day.

            A defeatist mindset only leads to weaponizing ones incompetence, which is cancerous.

    I sometimes identify with this, but lately I mostly skip panels 1 and 2 altogether.

    Anyone want to get into woodworking or smithing? I’ve got an idea, let’s veg out on the sofa doing nothing while we decide which would be a better use of our time.

        You didn’t forget to feel satisfied the moment you completed the Amazon order, feeling no sense of joy whatsoever by the time it arrives and you’re back to your overwhelming life of failure at mundanity?
