When I have the energy for 30million words to say but no energy to do anything with myself.

I have x chemical causing y response in z society which means zed is my only option and there’s nothing I can do but add tens of hundreds of more words to explain away my own agency… maybe more syllables will make things seem typical…

Who the fuck thinks of a “hyperfixation to make dopamine” unless they need an excuse.

I'm curious what you interpreted the meme to be about. From your comments here I can't tell if you think it's meaningless or if you think it's some excuse made to justify ... something?

It's just an expression of how listless one feels when their last hyperfixation lost its sparkles and a new one hasn't cropped up yet. It's not that challenging to grasp, for those who've experienced it. It's not a choice, either. One day you feel intensely driven to read/watch/create/engage with everything about one particular topic or through one particular hobby, but then the next day -poof- the feeling is gone. And in that moment you feel empty, unsure what to do next.

It's not boredom. It's not laziness. It's a temporary sense of directionlessness that you have no control over.

When I don’t have the dopamine fixation to make a serious point so I just keep adding words to make my words mean more via fixation and extra words instead of a point.

But the issue is “hyperfixation” and dopamine… anything to detract from the fact that OP can’t make a point

I mean do you not have the hyperfixation to make dopamine?

Who doesn’t have the hyperfixation to make dopamine?

I remember making my dopamine without the hyperfixation, I believe I had a more regular fixation that helped dopamine max my progression of hyper-fixations to allowed refixating my hyper dopamine attitudinal beliefs!!! I just had to fixate harder to dopamine my own progression maxing…

I say this as totally just maxing words to hyper fixate on my dopamine… that’s how fucking stupid OP sounds…
