#ScribesAndMakers for July 3: When (and if) you procrastinate, what do you do? If you don't, what do you do to avoid it?
I'll swap right out of programming to read a book, play a video game, or watch some anime. Often got things open in other windows so it's as simple as alt-tab.
I've noticed recently I tend to do this more often when I have a hard problem to solve that I'm not 100% sure about. I definitely have cycles of better & worse motivation and I've gotten to a place where I'm pretty relaxed about it instead of feeling guilty. I work how I work, and that includes cycles of rest, and that's enough (at least, for me it has been so far, and I'm in a comfortable career, married with 2 kids).
Some projects ultimately lose steam and get abandoned, and I've learned to accept that too. I learn a lot and grow from each project, so nothing is a true waste of time, and there remains plenty of future ahead of me to achieve cool things.
The procrastination does sometimes impact my wife & kids, and that's something I do sometimes feel bad about, but I think I keep that in check well enough, and for things my wife worries about, I usually don't procrastinate those too much (used to be worse about this).
Right now I'm procrastinating a big work project by working on a hobby project instead. The work project probably won't get done by the start of the semester as a result. But as I remind myself, my work doesn't actually pay me to work during the summer, and things will be okay without the work project being finished until later.
When I want to force myself into a more productive cycle, talking to people about project details sometimes helps, as does finding some new tech I can learn about by shoehorning it into a project. Have been thinking about talking to a rubber duck, but haven't motivated myself to try that yet, and I'm not really in doldrums right now.

Deep punches the ball back into the stumps at the non-striker's end but Tongue is unable to get any skin on it. It looked like Gill had got his bat behind the line regardless.

Given that FFOTUS seems to be asking for a (probably nuclear) war with Russia I guess there are some books we should read and films we should watch
I'd start with these two, the second is one of the most terrifying films I've ever seen (it builds slowly to the climax, so be patient.)

On the day the UK parliament voted to proscribe the citizen peaceful direct action group Palestine Action as supposedly terrorist, Channel 4 showed the searing Basement Films documentary "Gaza doctors under attack". It showed the actions of the Israeli terrorist State in destroying Gaza's healthcare system, murdering civilians of all kinds and targeting health workers some of whom have died following torture. Sprinkled throughout were the repetitive lies of the occupation.
