...so when the elder was talking about how the stars only bestow their secrets to the celestial elves because they vow not to interfere or act on the knowledge, i wondered if aaravos's omniscience is bound by a similar limitation. is that why he doesn't directly intervene? why he's being all coy and manipulative instead of i dunno. doing his own dirty work? how does that relate to the whole not lying thing? is he just that committed to the bit?

but the lying is what's got me up after bedtime, writing this barely-coherent post: remember when kosmo told the truth about the pearl in 6x06, how things sorta just went to shit (or at least, consequences went not-the-way-he-wanted)? but when kosmo hedges about the pearl, he's able to change what happened to lock in his preferred timeline

If you do something enough you’ll get a rough idea of how long it takes but you need to set time around it for shit going wrong. 

Heres 10 minutes for when i get distracted, heres 10 minutes if traffic gets shit, heres 10 minutes for when i forget my keys. Dont do so much that you’ll be ridiculously early to things but you need to leave some allowance.

If you find that its YOU who’s being slower than you could be, setting timers that go off periodically can help you keep track of how long you have to finish the task and when you should be finishing the task!

I need to make a plan at the start of the year to take vacations because I will forget and work nine months straight just to wonder why I'm burnt out.

I'm likely five (or more) minutes late because I didn't count in the fact that [getting from A to B] costs time. Even if I count it in, I will most likely be wrong on the amount of time.

Thinking "three years ago was 2019, and three years ago I was 35" will make my head explode because that's an awful long timespan but also nothing

On most days I will not know what day it is. I never know whenever I'm not working.

I do not know [have no feeling for] if something was last week, two weeks ago, five weeks ago, and so on.

I will take either short or endless walks with my dog because I don't know how long the routes are. Also I have to go for walks with him after appointments, not between. Otherwise I will not make it to the appointment in time.
