Smooth-brained
Sep. 13th, 2023 03:48 pmMostly putting this here for tracking purposes.
After a week sans laptop (and thus sans anything capitalism would consider productivity), I'm finding it incredibly difficult to focus while on it. My focus was already pretty shitty due to fatigue and Everything Else, but at this point it's real bad. I'm having trouble just keeping it together to write this post.
Doesn't help that I can't figure out how to save to the local disk on the repaired laptop. The system insists on saving everything to One Drive (which I refuse to use). Even when I tried copying my backup over to the path This PC > Local Disc (C:) > Users > (myname) it told me I'd run out of One Drive space before the backup completed copying over. Currently 400GB free on the local drive and I know I have a lot of images but I don't have that many images. And I know they all fit on the old drive.
I've tried writing a Patreon post three times. I get a few sentences down each time, but after a few minutes (like...five), my brain starts feeling full and I can feel an anxiety attack building up. I have to stop doing anything and just, like, go fold origami stars or play some solitaire (with actual cards) or I'll start spiraling into an actual episode and start crying.
This sucks a lot.
