Thats the dream! haha Glad you could do it

I have the same problem. Got a teaching job while in the middle of my phd and now i just end up doing preparations for the following classes, grading exams and so on, and never get around to working on my phd. Ive found no good solution though. If I work on my phd I leave my students waiting and with more improvised classes, if i work on material for the students I forget about my phd subject.

Ive tried using an app called superproductivity, which is on fdroid and works fine, but it didnt help me as much as i hoped…

Send help :( Also got long term personal stuff id like to work on, like at least an hour a week, but theres always something urgent from work that shows up and takes my time or leaves me too tired.

Any small difference in personality is gonna be used to justify what is wrong with the world.

I had a feeling my comment had a noble purpose :)

Considering that drinking coffee is my prefered kind of laxative, i would argue theres actually no distinction between coffee and shit.

Get into taking news slowly. Maybe set one day in the week for you to catch up on what happened a bit. And resist the urge to go checking for news constantly. Getting news from social media make it seem like a lot is going on all the time, but its mostly a lot of noise and many rehashings of the same “news” (especially if you get them through memes in social networks). Getting news on sunday is cool because you let matters cool down a bit and people have had the time to express what has happened better (theres less journalism on the weekends I guess).
