Why I am so good at procrasti-chores? I am just barely trying to get down to what I need to do in terms of today’s meeting, but in the meantime I’ve cleared so many nitty gritty issues - filed a PHI claim, made a dentist booking (last available for the year - procrastinated for AGES on this), contacted old water company to get credit refund, inquired about 2025 parking permit, found out medical whatever letter process, sent a bunch of emails and put in a bunch of calendar appointments etc…
okay, focus, focus, spatial sampling, do the voronoi polygons or whatever, come on

Whoa that’s a productive day in my book! Even though it was a distraction to your other task but still, give yourself credit for the things you ticked off the list.

Such a good term!
I am a professional when it comes to these. 😂

Better than procrastiscrolling or procrastigaming, i figure! Maybe I’ll call it… procrastiductivity.

The brain is funny like that - “oh I have to do this shit thing? Well I’m gonna do the other shit things instead, for the dopamine hit. But! I can’t do fun things or I’ll feel guilty! So admin chores it is!”

Nailed it - that’s exactly what my troll brain is doing :|
Trying to find dopamine in all the wrong places…

At least you were on a roll and managed to get tons of stuff done!
You’ll feel better after it’s all over though.

So relatable.
