Praxis. What I call whatever it is I do in order to try to regulate my focus and direct my efforts. I use a number of things as it happens, from org-mode within Emacs to journaling and recording myself speaking - processing this later.
My powers of executive function are limited. I have problems of attention dysregulation, daydreaming, and obsession. I am, moreover, very often mentally burned out.
Since I use org-mode for note-taking and to catch ideas and the like, I often build posts around org-mode items including "captures". Here, I may throw in some of the things I have been doing. I often despair of the ephemeral garbage that ends up getting churned out in microblogging sites. I add to it myself far more often than I would like (this is avowedly not hypocrisy: these sites were designed to be addictive and Mastodon and other alternatives inherited most of the design decisions). What we do is so much more significant than what we say and so I may sometimes transfer raw completed tasks somewhere here to give a sense of what I have been working on. Should any regular contributors join me here, I might encourage them to do much the same, particularly since, if I am to build towards DandyLion, I will likely assemble tasks here.
