That's exactly how I wound up looking at Lemmy again just now. I'm not supposed to be here right now, I'm supposed to be replying to a text message.

    That text message is important! Get it sent as soon as you check the weather, check your email, go for a walk, stop mid walk to pet a dog, run those errands you were going to do before getting distracted by the dog, walk home and make dinner, watch tv while playing games on your phone, then go to bed and then remember just as you are starting to drift off to send the text

    I was replying to a comment on feddit about children not reading nowadays and how shite i have become at reading since I got a tablet. Then I put my phone aside and started reading a book, got distracted by my own thoughts and wanted to reach out to one of my siblings whom i worry about, grabbed my phone and now I'm here.

    Fun fact, social engineers have spent decades honing this skill.

    Its not an accident, it's systematic medical abuse.

    I feel either very much seen or attacked. Maybe both. I experience this on a daily if not hourly basis.

    Jesus Christ my brain is fucking annoying sometimes.

    Why do I identify with so many of these.

    This is easier if the "apps" are all just the same browser.

    There's no reason to use a mobile app for anything if it's not something you need the functionality of a smartphone to do.

    I literally did this about two minutes ago. Damn you, OP!

  • It helps to have multiple monitors, a tablet, and a phone w/in reach. Oh, wait. 😅
