#Asmiov

Something I wish I had understood about #ADHD years ago:

One of my biggest problems isn't with #focus, or even #ExecutiveDysfunction (at least, not in the normal way people think about it).

It's with #ConflictResolution.

If I am planning to go somewhere and a family member asks me to do something at the same time, I will literally lock up like an #Asmiov robot being given two contradictory commands and sit at home and flip through Youtube Shorts rather than getting either done, because I cannot resolve the conflict.

It sounds comical/cartoonish, but it sucks so badly!!!

The only way around it that I can think of is to ask family members to ask me what my plans are before asking if I can do something, because otherwise I can't find a way around it. And of course, it's hard to just say "no." (Middle Eastern, yo!)

Another day, another page written. Incorporating material from #OlafStapledon’s Star Maker, this time, and a bit from #Asmiov’s Foundation. #dissertation #SciFi

Proving I am human to an AI application by filling a captcha is peak irony. The machine judges my humanity, acts as a gatekeeper, and provides me a pass when it feels safe enough.

Somewhere is laughing it out loud.

Habe die Tage mal wieder "Foundation" von Isaac #Asmiov gelesen. Darin gibt es die Welt Trantor, eine weltweite Stadt mit 40 Milliarden Einwohnern, die ein riesiges Imperium zwischen den Sternen verwalten. Falls ihr wissen wollt, wo Deutschlands Bürokratie in 10.000 Jahren und später mal sein wird ...
