If you can avond the problem and the consequence successfully, would that not be the solution?

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 21 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Only until the consequences outsmart me like some kind of dastardly platypus.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

How could a platypus be dastardly? They don't do much.

You're just lucky your name isn't Doofenschmirtz.

In my experience you can't avoid the consequences forever

[–] jarfil@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Who said anything about forever... just avoid them until you die.

PS: The day right before my open heart surgery, was one of the happiest in my life: no responsibilities, and a real chance of ditching all consequences. The surgery was a success, though 😐

That's the thing about consequences, they're unavoidable

You are literally describing a consequence

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes. But one that I can avoid.

[–] ChrysanthemumIndica@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

But what about the consequences of avoiding the consequences??

[–] Whelks_chance@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hm, this does explain why Dory is so successful... just keep swimming!

Aww, ADHD dinosaurs sounds like a cool animal concept. I hope there are turtles who taught us how to deal with depression.
