Like, it kinda makes sense if you use computers the way I do, and every device has a password, and if I let anyone else use it they get their own account, but I am NOT NORMAL. People don't do this shit. And for anyone who does, all they need are parental controls.

I feel like a question about OS-level age tracking that would've been obvious to me, were I not a tech person, is: what about shared accounts? I'm not just talking about library computers. Tech people will create a separate account for everyone who uses a device, but I think most people set up one account with no password and never think about it again. If you try to force them to set a password, they will sticky-note it to the screen. How is this going to work in practice?

Commented out almost all of my filters, will more carefully check/document/categorize things as I see them.

Thinking about starting public uBlock filter lists for (individually):

• "Related Content"
• pullquotes
• interrupting popovers
• cookie banners
• autoplaying videos on articles

Since I'm going through the trouble to block those things anyway, might as well share it, right?

How to get things done:

1. Break your task into smaller tasks.
2. Count the tasks and shuffle them into an Archipelago.
3. The next task on my list is in spike cave on the Dark DM bridge. How do I get to the Dark DM bridge???

Hey I made a randomizer, kinda https://github.com/madewokherd/Manual/releases/tag/dragonsweeper-1.1.0

Identifying as "playersexual" just to mess with other people's sense of reality.

Did the #my9games thing because people in a chat I'm in were doing it. The prompt I was given was "most influential games for you personally". Also I used topsters.org to make the image

What if we were both girls and we played a game together and held opposite sides of the controller and our arms crossed? 😳

I just ate the straightest string cheese I've ever encountered. Every little pulled off piece was pretty much uniform thickness.

I am over a month behind on social media and falling more behind every day. I do not plan to make any attempt to reverse this trend.

I have created an in-system appeals process.

It's generally for small decisions (like "should we get up and drink some water?") where we already know the answer but aren't doing it for a bad reason, often just inertia.

The process consists of someone going "I invoke discernment" and then we use discernment to find the answer (which we already know), and so far that gets whatever's blocking it out of the way.

I've decided not to schedule chores anymore.

In my free time, I will do what I most feel like in the moment. I don't satisfice. I have imperfect memory, so I keep a list of the options (trying to group things that are sufficiently similar). And I have primacy bias, so the things I do get moved to the end.

I suspect I have enough motivation that I still will get things done when I need to. So far that appears to be the case.
