- Aug 2, 2023Twitter · reply@nat_sharpe_ yeah, I was... lots of religious fundamentalists in my extended family and still did church stuff at least 3x week, but my parents were the low-key not so devout members of their families so it was moderated
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · postI'm in the mood for some supertweets (subtweets but positive unattributed observations...)
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@eigenrobot ooo should send you pics of the old brick here in Alexandria- George Washington's townhouse & tavern etc

- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@motusalt nah- the not-like-other-girls signaling is to say "I only saw Oppenheimer... and it was ok, but I wish they'd focused more on the math"
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · postquick demographics question- were you raised in a conservative religious / traditional household (any faith) or a liberal / secular household?
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat I think it's a mess of both cases... leads to hiding abu ghraib 😞

- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@deepfates @sama lol, I feel like you're someone who's traditional résumé wouldn't represent your actual experience in any way a recruiter could understand it...
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@profoundlyyyy I disagree that access & opportunity necessarily leads to motivation, imo it is often neurodivergence that leads to an intense interest which parents then facilitate if they're able (and yes less privileged parents maybe can't and those kids don't have the accomplishments)
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@acheronix I am convinced this is not true for me currently.... I have high anxiety which means I need very simple steps so I don't get overwhelmed and give up
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@averykimball like, I got to this question by asking myself why am I not getting things done and the pattern is that I lost track of the logistics required for it to be easy
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@averykimball or I go to the grocery store three times in two days and get annoyed at the overhead of back and forth because I had to change recipes or forgot another ingredient...
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@averykimball my dreadful is because I haven't planned well enough... I forget what I was supposed to bring or lose track of time and the business isn't open or I need to ask a question of someone who isn't present....
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@acheronix yeah... for me barrier to entry is the planning / mental overhead of figuring out what I need to do
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@gpurcell @eigenrobot I will say... my grandparents all did pretty well into their 90s- when my granddad died earlier this year he only had the last three days or so where he lost lucidity
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@eigenrobot this is why I suspect we need some sort of intentional memory-wipe drug or helmet or something, to keep our brains young enough to function
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@bayeslord I am sooo curious what you're actually working on, lol
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@colorhedge sigh, this is the immediate stuff I'm stressing abt after work today but there's also a long list of crafting projects and outdoors stuff (weather dependent) and social stuff (ppl dependent) and new house construction project, and now ppl have me thinking abt a new diet...
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@IvyAstrix what do you do w the "on hold pending X" list? that's the one that's out of control & keeps interrupting whatever I actually plan
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · replyand one of my smart bulbs got burned out by the power surge last weekend, need to research which ones are compatible w my current & planned hub and order one, and then pair it & reprogram whenever it arrives.... and just an overwhelming list of similar stuff
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@Pathless110 this is a bigger problem than just orders- also making calls & getting them returned, following up w ppl abt things I want to do, remembering birthday plans at the right time of year for everyone, finishing my crafting projects that I have to pack away sometimes for guests, etc
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · replyand it'd probably sit in my living room for a week while I get a lock so I can store it in the bike room ... then I get home tonight to an order I forgot about- marble resurfacing polish for a table w water rings...
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · replyI need to dig out my old bike rack and see if it works on my new car, and if not decide if I want a new rack or what... and also need to order a good lock... if I'd not remembered I'd end up buying a rack when unexpectedly I get a reminder to pick up the bike
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · replylike, I ordered an e-bike because I'd been wanting one but hadn't quite settled on which, and then twitter friends shared a link to a sale on a bike they recommend... completely forgot I ordered it until I remembered mid-drive home tonight...
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · replyI'm convince the answer is not "just keep doing stuff" because *every day* I have stuff I previously initiated come back and surprise me & add to the overwhelming list of half-finished tasks
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat @sidewayskoyote lol Cat! I thought you were aiming to gain Leftist followers not alienate them?
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@celtacc I sincerely mean an *organization* tool to keep track of stuff so that process is not running in my brain worrying about everything I'm forgetting and I have less suboptimal outcomes because I forgot to plan / prepare for something
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@powerbottomson1 lol no I have an overwhelming number of things w dependencies & callbacks that I'm not getting on with because the thought of keeping track of it all is scary
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@deepfates lol I had a dream I was at a vibecamp-esque event but it was all women including some trans friends 🫶
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · postok, for everyone w executive dysfunction... how do you stay organized & plan your time? is there a tool I should be using beyond calendar & simple notes app?
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@a_musingcat obvs children... and question for parents where that ends lol... but mostly I think "disabled" is the tough category bec mental stuff like depression or adhd or addiction can be crippling but also maybe fixable w support?

- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@YeshuaisSavior @dvorahfr terrifying... hot
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@DavePunFun yeah, houses designed for particular complicated sites are some of my favorites...
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@ThatShawGuy @eigenrobot I can see how ppl get reactive on both sides of this- the avg height difference is a fact ppl should be able to discuss without being called "offensive" but otoh if you're a tall woman who's repeatedly heard "you're shorter than men" it does get annoying
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@ThatShawGuy @eigenrobot yeah... like, a guy walking up to a 6' tall woman and telling her she's shorter than "men" because avg female height is 5'4" and avg male height is 5'9"... 🙄 ... but when the trait is less directly observable this becomes more accepted
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@eigenrobot observations about group differences... particularly when stated vaguely without quantifying the size of the difference
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@eigenrobot sigh, the thing that annoys me is not the statistical differences but that they immediately boomerang into me being told I personally must be incapable of something despite small average differences w large overlap in the distribution
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@pammalamma nice! any specific details nagging at you, demanding to be written?
- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@Samtanic_Panic my take is lowkey openly dating multiple ppl is cool but having poly as an identity is cringe

- Aug 1, 2023Twitter · reply@HephaistosF hush you, I know your cynical take, and note I said normative "should", not that it always does 😿
