I'm the same. My mind is always churning. I'm getting evaluated for ADHD next week.

The map would be tough. If someone showed me the map and said, go to the kitchen, I would try remember, turn left then right then its around to the left. I would remember it in words, not visually.

Brown and pink dog...in my mind I see a hazy face of a poodle with fluffy pink ears. I can't see the full dog. I can't walk around the image and explore it more. Its just a hazy partial visual that flashes in my mind for a moment.

Be careful, I logged out for too long and forgot my password and they wanted a copy of my driver's license before letting me have access to my account.

Prices were still coming down, the bottom seemed to be around 2012, but yes still a great time to buy compared to now.

I'd guess that regulations for earthquake safety make tall buildings very expensive to build. The only way it makes financial sense to build them is to put them in the most expensive areas and load the units with luxury finishes to increase profit. It's far more common to see 5 over 1s, and yes there is a lot of resistance to even those.

Thanks, its manageable but my autoimmunity is chronic. I get bloodwork done regularly and it's tough to get through those draws. I know there's conflicting advice on whether those with autoimmunity should donate, but I hate the process and never feel well after even those simple draws. I try to make up for it by being an organ donor but I'm not sure that mine will be worth much when I do go!

I'm not the person you responded to but for me its anemia and autoimmunity. Plus I have a tendency to faint when drawing blood.

Difficult to execute advice doesn't make it terrible.

Yeah, I wasn't trying to give you a hard time, just sharing how drastically different housing markets can be. I could sell my house in California and buy a 400k house outright from the equity that has accumulated. Alot of middle class Californian are doing just that, selling their houses and buying in the south or midwest with cash. It's part of what is inflating your housing costs because your market is more affordable than mine. For comparison, the median houshold income in my city is 89k but the median house list price is 1 million, making your market more affordable and attractive for those that need some relief from inflation.

Those numbers mean nothing without knowing the local wages. In my neighborhood the lowest priced 800 sqft homes are 950k and one bedroom rent is $2400. So your area sounds like a killer deal.

One floor of my office building is a very well known gaming company. They've been remote since I started my job in 2021, but they have started coming into the office recently. I'd say 75% of the people I've seen get off at that floor have appeared to me to be LGBT+.

You've got this! You sound like you have a solid plan and are ready to execute it. If you're able to reduce your intake and wean a bit before the 20th, it will help.
