I'm just gonna leave these here because I think my bird followers might appreciate them

I've spent like the entire last week spinning in circles, unable to focus, and wasting time on constant indecision just trying to do some really basic sockets programming and I feel like I wouldn't even pass a first year programming course working like this.
Also painfully aware that if this were literally any other job, I probably wouldn't be able to keep that job in my current state, either. Which is another reason I'm stuck here, even if I could find another place that might take me.
re: insects
@thingywott they live in the steam tunnels beneath the buildings at work. Sometimes they get out onto the main floors, but they mostly stay down there.
THAT WE KNOW OF!

@PK okay but maybe the cat's name is icon did you think of that huh
