    All these are accurate for me except I’ve graduated the chair to an over-sized under-bed drawer, all my bills are automated, and I have a car that has a proximity key so it always stays in my pocket (and I wear the same pants for a couple weeks on end).

    But yeah, those are just learned coping mechanisms.

      Automated bills is a weird one for me. I absolutely know they’d be useful to keep me from forgetting important things, but I manage to talk myself out of it as I’d “lose awareness” of where my money goes.

      … I need to stop making excuses, huh?

        I went from routinely missing to never. You absolutely should set that up.

        I can relate on the losing awareness aspect. So, I also put them all on my calendar in red (recurring, of course) then switch to green with the title appended w/ “DONE” when I’ve paid it, or verified auto pay is scheduled.

          Ooh, I like that! I can still maintain awareness but there’s no real penalties if I forget to for a day or few. Thanks, I think I’ll be setting that up today!

        Your bank should allow you to setup autopay alerts, I get them pretty regularly for mine (email stating ‘your auto pay to COMPANY is pending for $xxxx on yy/zz’) but I also don’t read them. And I have a budget setup so I know where that money is going to go this week anyway. And I check my accounts weekly to pay off my credit card so I see it there as well. Mainly because I have a reminder to do so.

    If I have multiple files or folders named like that it’s usually because I’m working on something and frustrated. They eventually devolve into profanity lol

    I have a very strong ADHD and i managed to resolve all of those around 19-20, i hate seeing this type of generalisation when it comes to ADHD, because it creates a stereotype people not affected by it can base their perception on.

      well I didn’t use it for about a month now, but I could (i won’t) need it any day now so why close it, it’s a PITA to open it

      try 25 virtual desktops running 2 browsers, one of which with multiple profiles for various broad topics … my “main” session alone has 75-80 windows at present 😃

      edit: installed an extension to find out: in main session, 378 tabs across 84 windows. seems like a low number of tabs per window perhaps, but I organize topics into a window, then related topic-windows into a dedicated browser profile session if they’re long-lived, and windows/sessions are grouped into virtual desktop by top-level topic more or less … so my fediverse/threadiverse session has 35 tabs in 7 windows in only 1 virtual desktop.

      edit 2: I theme each browser profile differently to (mostly) tell them apart by eye

      I learned that my phone’s browser will only allow 99 tabs. Unless they’ve updated that.

      Excessive tabs spanning across multiple browsers. Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. All at least 50 tabs opened

        Multiple windows open in multiple browsers, each window has minimum of 50 tabs open… Thank the gods for the 'switch to this tab’s feature so I can find what I wanted (even with organization tabs like Tree Style Tabs, shit gets lost)

    Many of these are simply Depression^TM , the less special sounding but more realistic for you to actually have “feature” nowadays.

    Don’t be putting my life style choices into an acronym.

    I prefer - being a hero against the ever expanding entropy death of the universe.

        My music taste is so scatter shot and shifting I could never do that

        Mine are usually titled the date I save them with no further description

        And before you ask, no it doesn’t make finding the correct playlist easier

    You guys don’t get a compulsion to get rid of any notification or mark emails as read the moment they come through?

    Also you guys get messages on social media?

      No. Mostly I turn off the notification stuff if I can, especially the little dot with the unread number. A lot of that stuff isn’t worth reading.

      I did the same. It can mask the mixes in non-cloth objects much better than the chair and still looks like there’s some kind of system there.

    Yeah, but you ever set an alarm for 4am, pop meds and then go back to sleep and have godlike vivid dreams?
