This is the mental equivalent of Saitama's workout from One Punch Man: 100 sit-ups, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and a 10-km run. (Repeat daily until your hair falls out.)
Now everyone needs to play all the clones of that dumb auto-shooter on rails. Their ads keep telling me that game is going VIRAL right now. I think they must have misunderstood someone saying their ads are like a virus.
Doing this just now, it's quite meditative. Clears the other thoughts away because it's just this short little thing that won't take a lot of time so tasks that would take longer are easier to postpone and discount. And when those "tasks" being discounted and postponed are mostly anxieties that are non-actionable so I can't do anything about them anyway... It's nice. A nice little pattern breaking reset button like taking a deep breath and stimulating your Vagus nerve and stuff.
My mind goes all over the place when I'm in bed, so I legit do stuff like this every night to help me relax and fall asleep. Like, I choose a theme and for each letter in the alphabet I start listing in my head as many things as possible. Last night I did Marvel characters, and I think I was asleep by letter ''F". It's stupid and silly, but it totally works for me.
As a baseball history buff, for a long time my way of "counting sheep" in bed was:
5 baseball players whose last name begins with the letter "A",
then "B", "C", etc.
When after a few nights I worked my way up to "Z", I started over, but with a twist:
5 baseball players, whose last name begins with the letter "A", and who played before 1950.
Then when I made it to "Z",
5 baseball players, whose last name begins with the letter "A", and who played after 1950.

laughs nervously, then scrambles to get better at his alphabet
it's also like 2 hours compared to 2 minutes.
But we train wrong on purpose.
This guy in five years.
I was thinking he'd wind up with a braniac-style nemesis.
I think he looks like a young Jaromír Jágr.
We all know it's spelled reshtrougnt
Bless you
What happened with those brain training games? Seems like they vanished suddenly.
Everyone's brains became fully trained and they were no longer needed

The sincere expression gets me 😃
That's just focus. They caught him in his third minute of restaurant.
