I'd give myself an absurd challenge; stretch the time as much as possible.
It's the opposite of wishing time away or making days shorter.

But the whole point would be the attempts of contemplation -- with questions baring in mind:

-If I were so bored, why would I just grab any electronics in my sight and get a screwdriver and play with it?

-Or, why don't I just get all my unneeded clothes, cut them into strips, sew a giant yarn out of it and crotchet with my fingers?

-Why not I'd just spend my time studying math and numbers for straight hours if I want to recall those lessons so badly?

-Why didn't I just bug my mom to do computer work along with the local quarantine enforcement?

-Could I just stick to every routines I made? No shortcuts and no extensions unless it's priority one or an emergency.


Then this executive functioning relevant question:
-Why don't I just focus at those all day? Without this mental strain, without that weird depressed-like state after a while or so?

-If so, what am I dealing with? Possible comorbidities just not very expressible? ADD? BPD? GAD even? If not, then as symptoms. Symptoms of what? Sleep? Hormones? Diet? Poor posture?

-If I have those questions in mind, why don't I just talk to the professionals I've known in my contacts? What IS holding me back?

-And if the prospect or thoughts of possibility bothering my contacts, why not straight to some random chat site like Omegle?
Or heck, at this very forum and make an official thread? What IS truly holding me back? Hidden Fears? Subconscious anxiety? Depression? Unresolved crap from the shadows?

Why do people eat coriander?

It takes like soap and deserves to be outlawed.

a touch of coriander makes everything taste better, are you out of your mind?

don't tell me you're eating it straight :lol:

ran some errands in tukwila and faultleroy/west seattle today. first time i've gone off-island in nearly a month, got gas, bought matboard and foamcore at michaels to sell my recent painting, stopped at trader joe's to get groceries and also the bank to add to my emergency fund. got a pretty comfortable safety net now. if i sell that one, and another one i made few months ago, that's more than $500 in my pocket, just from two paintings.

College was the worst mistake of my life.
Everyone told me that I needed it to find a job. That without college I'd be flipping burgers for the rest of my life.
I have a Bachelor's in Commerce, major in accounting. I've applied to so many jobs it's ridiculous. No responses ever and I have wasted years of my life for nothing.

I'm in 10s of thousands of dollars of debt with no way out. I'm completely hopeless and have little hope for the future. Looking back I would not have wasted time and money on college and instead taken a burger flipping job.

I also hate coriander and green olives (and black olives, for that matter). To me, coriander doesn’t taste like soap, it tastes a little bit spicy and sort of a combination of dirt and a metallic taste - still quite unpleasant for me. Coriander seed is fine with me, if I remember what it tastes like correctly, but the plant itself? Nope.

It would actually probably be much shorter and easier to just write a list of foods I like or will at least usually tolerate than a list of foods I don’t like.

Worse than a child's even and still kept working on it.




At this thread's topic on mind:

I-i-innerr-errr-tiaaa!! !~

I hate ALL herbs. All seasonings except salt, ketchup, mayo in summer and vinegar. Everything needs to be drowned in vinegar. Pickled everything. Did you know you can even get unpickled beetroot? Sounds yucky.

I'm wondering if pedantry is an autistic trait.

I find it really annoying and rude if people don't listen to my entire sentences or read my entire sentences and just attack me on part of it instead of taking it all in. But I realise some people have learning difficulties or are deaf and that affects what they are actually able to hear or read.

Right now I am thinking about wanting to buy some land for myself and have my own homestead. I was imagining me doing it all by myself and making money off of things like, selling fruits and veggies from my garden, sell eggs from chickens, and maybe make soap from goats milk. The thing is that I don't have the money to do all this, maybe one day i'll have the money to do all this though! :)

If you're an adult and you pick your football team for the very first time, it's kind of your own fault if you end up with scumbags. Pick based on a club's values rather than if they're doing well in one of the richest leagues esp if that league isn't even in your country.

If you support St Pauli or Celtic there's certain problems you're less likely to run across than if you support some generic club.

If I could start over again I'd support St Pauli. I love Celtic but occasionally you run into an old religious guy who's homophobic or something. Still, most of the time it's pride I feel, for our tolerance or charity work.

How to serve tea in Australia, since the cups will be upside down.
