So my entire life has been extreme boredom, followed by finding a book/videogame/hobby I find interesting, doing nothing but that for awhile, then never touching it again.

I’m debating maybe trying to make a rule of not doing something two days in a row. Like I just found a video game I liked and played it all day yesterday and today, and while I still wanna play I already feel its shininess wearing off.

Curious if anyone else has tried to space out their dopamine buttons and if it helped. So maybe like instead of just playing the same game tomorrow, I’ll need to try other games, or maybe try to find a new book series to hyper focus on…

      This. Except if there were, jobs would just assume that was their time. I constantly have this wish that I could just enter some sort of “time stasis” space outside of “mainline time” that I could use just to read or play my game backlog or something, so I could actually bother with them. Lol…

      Yeah it’s more feasible that I break the time-space continuum than actually consume my finite time responsibly.

        I hear all the electrons are the same electron moving forwards and backwards in time!
