Honestly it's more like

Yeah, tbh, I tend to not do a lot of my chores because.. I don't feel the need to. Why clean when I'm ok with the current level of dirtyness? Why wash when I still got clean stuff that I want to wear? Etc.
Just realize that your level of comfort with dirt and debris can change gradually. And all of a sudden, you are hip deep in trash
Eh, nah, that actually doesn't happen to me. I do clean eventually.
Yeah, I feel this. My partner hates it that I don't usually help out around the house.
Exactly this, for me at least.
I was a failure relative to my peers in my late thirties, got diagnosed with ADHD and it’s insane.
So before I always wanted to be a software developer but I couldn’t finish shit, and just procrastinated and kept learning but never progressing.
Afterwards, I am now a software developer and working from a massive spec sheet has kept me engaged the whole time. I still suck at planning but give me a plan and I’ll knock it put the park.
What remains to be seen is if I still have the same vigour, 1 year, 2 years in etc.
For me personally, even if I don't have days of clean clothes and NEED to do laundry like right now, it's still way harder to do something for myself than it is to do it for someone else.
Wow.. true!
