help-circle






  • On surface I’m type of ADHD who always picks a new hobby and forgets old one. However, I have somehow managed to do it in a way that it always goes full circle and I come back to that first thing.

    It has been slow, but after enough time I’m suddenly rather good at several things.

    If I feel passion towards something, I just go with it if possible. Only exception if doing something non productive goes on too long, like months spent just gaming, then I need to do sometimes about it.

    Usually that’s not the case cause I get bored.






  • Yeah I have been shut down so often it has made me apathetic towards my job, as usually within few months we have a problem because we didn’t do what I told to do.

    Even without intrinsic motivation, I think in certain tasks it’s unethical to be careless.

    I used to work in kitchens. Hated it. But still be extra careful with allergies and special diets and hygiene, because not doing so might affect people negatively, people who don’t have anything to do with why I hate my job.

    It can be same in more abstract ways in somewhere like IT or audio, like taking care of cyber security.

    But when that doesn’t apply, slack off as hard as I can.


  • Equally related to work, I’m someone who has been quiet quitting for a while, and generally have rather “Graeberistic” view about work.

    But I simultaneously want to be very competent at what I do, and get easily annoyed by incompetence. I slack of as much as I can if my employer treats me badly, but when I actually do something I want to do it well.

    My line of work is IT / Audio, but in a job which I hopefully quit really soon for new one.


  • This, and if you eat vegan, it will also limit the damage done to bugs as a result of smaller land use. I’m vegan with no exceptions, but I don’t really give a fuck about being vegan in some weird absolute way like “can I sit on leather chair at my friends”. Instead of that, veganism is just an attempt to reduce suffering, with full understanding that it is never going to remove it, and that there are other ways to to reduce suffering in the world without being vegan, which I also try to implement in my life.
