  1. Do a thing.
    Rest.
    Do a thing.
    Rest.
    That's productivity.
    Does anyone normal actually just work 8 hours straight on a normal day?
    Sure breaks, lunch, yes, sure, sure…
    But still isn't it a myth?
    And who's perpetuating it, genuinely believing it? Expecting it? That last one is the big one I think.

    Even when we totally understand and acknowledge a productivity myth as it applies to ourselves, we expect responsiveness of the world.

    Extrapolation is hard.

  2. Autistic burnout isn’t just being "tired."

    It is cellular-level energy depletion.

    When you force yourself to mask and push through sensory overload, your body pays a steep price. Chronic adrenaline damages your mitochondria. This accumulated physical stress creates your allostatic load.

    Stop trying to sleep off hardware damage.

  3. CW: Ranting about in-person work, burnout, language

    My work is pushing for another unnecessary in-person only event, and in the past, this kind of situation would send me into paralyzing stress. But now I've passed the point of #BurnOut and am in some new phase where I can't be bothered to care about anything at all. The entire world is on fire anyway, so why should I freak out when I see smoke coming from some new place? It's all already going up in flames anyway.

    They can fucking fire me--I don't care. It's like I don't have the will to care about anything anymore. But I will not get #covid19 or risk #LongCovid for callous and lazy employers who can't be bothered to even try to create virtual or hybrid events.
