oh this one is a fav of mine but I was raised redneck so

 

I'm especially thinking of some bizzare foreign horror movies that didn't make sense to me and I figure there's gotta be some from my own (US) culture that just make 0 sense outside of the context of having been raised in this culture.

got hubs one because I couldn't afford a steam deck for his birthday. he loves it. I never see him play it at home (I think because the actual computer is here) but every once in a while he'll mention having played x or y retro game and he has covered the ENTIRE thing in Simpsons stickers.

so you can study stuff and do coursework but you gotta make it really easy to do accidentally. when I got a paper to write I would make a google drive folder with the project outline and a template for the paper including a reference sheet. I would lazily look up sources occasionally and add the pdfs to the folder and easybib / citation machine them into the reference section by doi. at that point it would be a matter of when the paper would get written, not if. the dopamine would just hit suddenly when I'm having an IBS shit at 2am and "oops. I wrote a research paper." I accidentally wrote so many papers while shitting. one time I set all of it up and went to bed and turned out one of the group members was also ADHD because when I woke up she'd accidentally done the whole thing while I was asleep. 10/10 method.
