For anyone wondering what ADD can be like, just imagine that your brain is firing like that for hours on end. Until you find a subject for your hyper focus. Then your brain is still firing wildly, but it's all just about that one super interesting thing, which you BTW will have forgotten all about after a random length of time, between 3hrs and 3weeks usually. Although I have had about 5 tabs open on the back burner for months now.
Every month or so i mass select them all and put them in their own bookmark folder with the current data as the name. Then never look at it ever again...
I once told a women I was dating how many tabs I had open in Firefox she was appalled. I'm not saying this is the reason we broke up but I can only assume it made her think more critically about me.
I always have several hundred to a thousand tabs open 😭 help me
This sounds as close to actual hell as anything I can imagine. Schizophrenia is almost surely worse, but I don't think I can imagine that.
Then the H in ADHD starts kicking in, and suddenly it's PaRtY TiMe, like Gandhi from Clone High! Except, no one else wants to party with you.
Well I also hate parties so, still hell

who's the author? I actually like this writing style...
Edit: Thank you, it's Bobbie Ann Mason. She was a finalist for the Pulitzer prize. I've downloaded some of her books and can't wait to read them :)
Bobbie Ann Mason, author of Shiloh and Other Stories, although the posted excerpt is from In Country
Gemini guessed that this is "Gone Home" by Sam Greenbriar. No idea if that's correct but it seems plausible.
Huh I was expecting her to imagine marco polo bringing spices but her having nowhere to keep them
