- 03:03, 26 June 2024 Framework Laptops (hist | edit) [5,298 bytes] Ms-demeanor (talk | contribs) (Created page with "Look. ''Look''. I have zero problem with Framework Laptops. Framework laptops are ''fine''. They're perfectly serviceable and appear to work well and have a lot going for them. I just don't like them all that much. I think that you could do better. I think that they're targeted at people who are smart enough to want a better class of computer but are scared to death of hardware and I just kind of feel like there's not that much of a reason to be scared of hardware so I...")

If you want your cat to get time outside, build it a catio or train it to walk on a leash. Being outdoors is dangerous to cats, humans, and other animals. Cats are an invasive species that make wonderful pets but should under no circumstances be allowed to wander freely. Keeping an outdoor cat is neglectful of your cat. Feeding a feral colony without providing veterinary care, spay/neuter, and vaccination is animal abuse. = Dangers to...")

I use Simple Tab Groups to organize my tabs in Firefox, but that doesn't mean I'm any good at paring down the number of open tabs I have.

For me, this is almost always background noise, though the kind of noise I need depends on my situation. == Soundscapes == This is something along the lines of white noise; it is non-repetitive, non-rhythmic, non-verbal, low-volume sounds. Whale songs, coastal waves, rain sounds, and cafe noises are examples of the ki...")

I use multiple types of To-Do lists at the same time to help me stay on task and remember what I need to get done. == For Ongoing Small Tasks == I have a job that requires me to be able to task-switch with relative ease and to be able to come back to dropped tasks.

Pomodoro theoretically requires some attention and planning; you're supposed to plan tasks before starting a timer and alternate between short breaks, long breaks, and work stretches. That's too much overhead for me. So I don't worry about variations or plan...")
- 05:51, 10 May 2024 Cool Shit Journal (hist | edit) [2,966 bytes] Ms-demeanor (talk | contribs) (Created page with "I do not do well with "gratitude journals." I do not particularly value gratitude as an emotion and when people discuss the importance of gratitude with me it ends up making me feel guilty. I'm not particularly grateful to be alive, I don't feel gratitude for the way that I've survived the things that I've survived; I feel bitter and prickly and grumpy. However, the purpose of a "gratitude journal" isn't exclusively to consider what things you might be grateful for, it...")

This helps to cut off panic and catastrophizing by making you examine what the likely outcomes of an event actually are. In its most basic form, "Is it Likely?" wor...")

I use this in a work context, but not in my private life. My work inbox generally has fewer than ten emails in it, my personal inbox has a few hundred, and I have about eight personal email addresses.
