I’ll take the mail. We hardly ever get any, I always enjoy it when we have some items in the mail to sort.
Do not try to memorize your shopping list, that is a trap. There are too many distractions in the store and you will not think of the thing you need most
I’ve gone specifically for milk, one item lists are pretty easy to memorize. The problem is coming back home with only one item.
I have ended up with a bag of food and no milk and had to go back.
I have to list, even for one item.
100% this, my wife makes a menu for the week on Monday then creates a list from that in Apple Reminders that I use to shop from. She knows if it isn’t on the list it isn’t going to be in the bag I bring home. Even hand writing a list is better than trying to memorize one, anything to take that mental load off in a place designed to make you over buy on stuff you don’t need will help.
Who the fuck uses a memorized list in the era of smart phones?
I have lists of lists!
On a pragmatic note: Anylist is a cross platform app (Web, Windows, iOS, Android) that syncs instantly.
Me, about once a month. “It’s only 3 things, not worth writing down, I’ve got this”
Narrator: he didn’t got this.
I can do all that perfectly well. Sitting still is tough but can do it when I meditate.
I actually like doing laundry as long as I can listen to a podcast while doing it, it’s the perfect amount of stimulation for my brain to not completely wander off.
I like loading the machine and letting it do its job.
I loathe unloading and folding and putting shit away neatly.
I’ll take the mail. 50/50 shot I can address it now and toss it. All others are impossible.
This is reminding me - I need to pay the bill from my psychiatrist. But they’re closed right now… Can someone repost this tomorrow during business hours, maybe I’ll see it then?
I already did a load of laundry today! Where’s my million dollars??
C actually gets done pretty often because I’d starve otherwise. Also, no car means I can only buy as much food at once as I can carry back home.

Jokes on you, there’s no time limit. I’ll do laundry. Eventually.
Sorting mail sounds like a task from another age.
You wrote “task” but you meant “torture technique”, right?
I don’t know because I’ve never done it but it doesn’t sound that bad
It’s one of those “tasks” that’s actually a dozen smaller tasks in a trenchcoat and also they’re having an orgy in there and occasionally pop out new baby tasks that grow at an alarming rate.
I never have a list when shopping. Everything else is a nightmare.
im gunna sit in bed and do nothing instead
A is the only one that’s actually a simple task.
You have to take it out and put it on the drying rack too.
Also, the drying rack is already full.
it helps if you break “sort the laundry” and “fold the laundry” into separate tasks from “wash the laundry”
though it is NOT helpful to split “dry the laundry” off, you gotta do that right away
“Match socks” is an impossible task. Problem deferred to a later time. Ticket closed.
