  • …podcasts and audio books that I have rewind because I forgot I was listening to something.

    I sad chuckled because I am the same. On the other hand, I listen to glitchy electronic music with irregular patterns on my headphones in order to concentrate on a task. My brain tunes out the mayhem and focuses on the task at hand. Imagine a screen full of jumbled, ever changing imagery with a single fly crawling across it, but in sound. My brain will focus on the “fly” and blur out the rest because it makes no sense.

    Listening to proper music has the opposite effect where it will immediately trigger my mental wanderings.




  • Before I moved here I used to think temps in the negatives were crazy, but you really do get used to it. Plus, good cold weather gear makes a huge difference.

    I’ll tell you what’s crazy, the 95°f+ with 90+% humidity we used to get in Louisiana. There’s no getting use to that. I don’t miss that one bit.

    I bring it back to the store, like a proper child of the light.

    EDIT - ProTip: Leave your reusable bags in your car. When you checkout tell them you don’t need bags and to just put the groceries back in the cart. You can bag the stuff at your own pace once you are back at your vehicle. No self bagging stress, no "I forgot the bags stress, no extra work for the cashier, no need for a bagger, and you help the queue move faster.
