    that’s the only way I ever submitted anything in college lmao

    wait what do you mean I’m now suffering from permanent burnout and near adrenal exhaustion and inability to execute on any of my hobbies anymore? No that clearly just means I need more caffeine and to work harder because I’m lazy

          I’m actually taking a weekly course on model railroading! We have homework involving stuff like modeling terrain with plaster and painting landscape layers! I would not get that stuff done if it wasn’t due at the next class!

      If you white knuckle past the point of burnout, you eventually start getting out of bed again to do hobbies. But only hobbies that feel useful and needed, and only if done feverishly so your brain can’t dwell on feeling burnt out and all the fun is gone. Dunno, maybe it’s just me ¯\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      Disclaimer: It doesn’t go so well for people who wish to remain employed :/
