It's probably a first world problem, but I absolutely hate looking for instructions on how to do something and only finding ones on videos rather than a written version. The reasons:
1. I have to stop listening to music
2. I have to rewatch it several times to understand the instruction, my brain doesn't do auditory data input much
3. It ends up taking much more time than it would have if I was to read one or two sentences, because the video often has an intro, "please like my video", "click to subscribe" and whatnot, and these take twice more time than explaining how to do that one thing I'm looking for. It's infuriating and will definitely not make me like the video and subscribe.
4. Some people just have annoying voices, not their fault, but it happens often.

Having said all that I'm actually grateful that there are instructions for things online and that people care to make them.

Lately I have developed a habit where I decide I want a soda, pick up a can, carry it with me to wherever I am about to establish my nest for the evening, put it down and then forget it completely.
Usually I do this a couple of times in an evening, moving the unopened can to the next spot with my armload of junk that I need with me everywhere I go in the house, which now apparently includes an emotional support root beer. #adhdThings

I recently found out that I do this thing where if I work on a certain type of visualization, I will tailor my entire media consumption around that project.

Doing an archaeological visualization? I guess I'll be watching Indiana Jones, various documentaries and listen to history podcasts and read NatGeo.

Doing a winter scene? Guess I'll watch The Terror (season 1) and listen to arctic mystery podcasts.

1920s style illustration? Historical crime podcasts and Peaky Blinders.

So today I learned that my head is still completely chaotic. What I'm writing is so dense in information and goes in so many directions I doubt anyone would have a good time trying to decipher the feedback I'm trying to give 😭

"This is impossible. I cannot do this. It's going to take me ages and I might not be able to do it at all. I'm an imposter. My life and career are basically over."

*20 minutes later*

"Done… This wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it would be."

Me finding out the name of the pictured thingamabob.
I believe it’s
Tragjoch in German
Milkmaid’s yoke in English
niskakorento in Finnish
????? in Swedish

I used to have one of these things. It was exactly like the one in the picture. I found mine in an abandoned farm house when I was maybe six years old.

The pictured character is German Hummel Hummel Mors Mors, but in this picture he is uncharacteristically using Finnish type “niskakorento” because the picture is drawn by Finnish artist Touko Laaksonen aka Tom of Finland.

If any native Swedish speaker reads this, please let me know what do you call this thing.

@redscroll yeah, I've been keeping a tab open on their page for the longest time (#ADHDThings)
I was planning on using #Codeberg for #OSS projects I have in mind. They come highly recommended from what I've seen.

I had to put my heating on for my cold (needed defrosting) dehumidifier yesterday.

It didn’t work with upstairs dehumidifier when it froze last year, might try the hairdryer on that. Yes, it’s been sitting in my bedroom not working, while I forgot it existed and piled stuff on top.

At least the one downstairs is working, and we had a few hours where we couldn’t see our breath.

Was supposed to do *one* urgent thing today. I managed to do four other urgent things, but not the one I had set out to do 🙃 .
