@schratze @gsuberland To-Do lists are just a visible record of failure. I have IBNUs (Important but not Urgent) items still waiting for attention from 2009. Important like "leaking roof which is damaging the door, walls and ceilings" or "unfinished insulation which is wasting huge amounts form heat loss", or "Parts I promised to make 5 years and two months ago, and still have the items the friend sent me to adapt". Or the tax return that I'm being fined £10 a day for not finishing

@gsuberland "too much mental load? Simply reduce your mental load by writing a to do list"
It's like they don't know that writing a to do list exponentially increases mental load for someone with ADHD

@schratze @gsuberland and yet I am sleep-deprived from total overload, don't have a TV, my next Youtube video is two days late, I have dozens of unread and unanswered emails. I'm self-medicating with 10 or more double-espressos a day (which is why I have time to type this)
