Self Help Idea:
Every morning line up your plushies and say “alright gang here’s the plan” and list off everything you need to get done today while heist music plays in the background
Unfortunately my stuffed animals don’t hold me accountable.
I like this idea, I’m going to try it, sounds like a great ADHD hack
It may not help if some of them look like they’re about to giggle, and thus may not be taking the plan serious.
Actually potentially helpful advice. This is analogous to rubber duck debugging. Just putting your intention into words reinforces it.
I’ve heard it called “being someone’s watson”. Just the act of speaking things outloud and hearing them can sometimes help.
You know how everyone swears that AI is making them so much more productive? If there’s an ounce of truth to it, I bet that it’s because writing a prompt forces them to articulate what they’re stuck on. I discovered years ago that when I’m stuck on a technical problem, I can usually break through by brain dumping onto a page or two — it doesn’t matter if I ever read it again, it’s just something about the process of writing that helps me make new connections and prune the unhelpful ideas.
Writing a prompt and having it reworded at you unironically can help reorganise thoughts. You can do that with a human person too. But there’s a lot of people in love with LLM Chatbots precisely BECAUSE it can reorder their thoughts for them and make them make more sense.
All I need is some heist music to get my life in order. Suggestions?
This playlist is something I listen to often while working.
And like a real gang, everything boils down to you doing all the work while they just sit and listen >:(
Goddammit plushie #31, why can’t YOU do the dishes for once??
If YOU gave a plushie #31 a real name, maybe they’d be more inclined to help you!!
You can tell how adept I am at choosing names by looking at my Lemmy user name. Numbers is all I’ve got!
I hope people do this.
Going to get one of those Armored Core 6 models and talk to it like I’m Walter.
Art Source because I love it
Unironically I am going to do this because my (suspected) AuDHD brain will not have organised thoughts unless I’m either already locked-in or talking aloud to myself.
This is just an excuse to post some Tangerine Dream from the movie Thief (1981). Highly recommended movie.
Is the mission impossible theme heist music?
I’d class that more as “super spy music”, like the bond theme. But hey, if it works for you…
It felt wrong but was the first thing that I heard
