Before sleeping. Except this can occur for hours.

Lately also while playing katamari.

I don’t overthink. I think exactly as much as I’m meant to. Just because you’re forced to waste time doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you.

Usually when I’m having a threesome with two swamp donkeys.

Forgetting walking in the woods. But it’s overthinking in a good, peaceful, nigh meditative sense.

All places, all times. 😔

E. All of the above

When I’m looking you in the eye

Walking the dog is missing

Smooth brain empty mind

It was the dishes and public spaces before i got earbuds and twenty-seven podcasts to listen to.

It was before sleep until I started taking edibles before bed

It was the shower until i got waterproof earbuds

Now I just overthink while I’m trying to have conversations with people

Nah, I watch Star Trek while washing plates so no chance of overthinking there. Oh, and on the train. And before sleeping. I do not while showering though so probably there.

Need option 5. On the shitter.

Any time I have to handwash anything, I think “Why in the fuck did I not triple check that this was dishwasher safe, I should buy a dishwasher safe one so I don’t need to waste time standing over the fucking sink doing what a hunk of metal could save me the time doing, and more efficiently to boot”.

Showering is either a power fantasy or dread.

Before sleeping is definitely dread.

Public spaces is “why in the fuck are so many people so fucking nasty”.

All of the above? Also, not just public places. Wherever I’m not actively doing something, there’s at least three thought irons in the sleepless fire. 🤷🏽‍♂️

I don’t really have control over it, this is why I go take long walks/jogs. I keep ruminating for a good chunk of the exercise, then comes a point when I enter the flow and stop thinking. I just look at the landscape breezing past me. Immobile, rolling a ball the size of a planet under my feet. At last, the thinking stops.
