  • I was in my grandma’s house, but the place was kind of an office in that dream. Someone dropped a bag of flour into a trash bin. It gave life to a malign flour frog. I told the frog that it wouldn’t be able to blind me if I kept my eyes closed. It mocked me saying its powers were much stronger than that and proceeded to blind me. I woke up with sore eyes.











  • Having ADHD doesn’t mean that person cannot commit

    It kinda does. ADHD prevents you from creating habits. People will do something while it is new and interesting but once it becomes repetitive, you’ll need all the stars to align properly to keep doing it.

    It can also mean hyperfocus can kick in after a certain amount of time with an activity.

    That’s not how hyperfocus works. Hyperfocus is nothing more than being completely focused on a single thing to the point you don’t notice anything else around you. You can’t get hyoerfocused on something that bores you, even if it’s something you’re very interested on.


  • We already have too few options to pick from and these days it’s often the case that we don’t even get to choose for ourselves.

    The company I work for has a new device security policy that states you need direct approval from the CTO to use anything other than a Mac for work - and even with the approval you’re restricted to Windows or three specific Debian distros.

    I tried looking for a new job and from the first three companies I spoke to, two of them also mandated the use of Macs.





  • For a while, burning CDs was my way of keeping backup of stuff. I might still have a bunch of them stored somewhere and if I still had any way to read them I would be picking them up right now to see which ones still worked and if there was anything interesting in there.
