    Just checked google to see if there's a conspiracy theory that morton girl and gorton guy are the same person.

    not yet.

    I should probably write a blog post

    I feel like if I listened to audiobooks I'd just phase out and focus on whatever i'm doing and retain nothing from the book...

    Yeah my girlfriend listens to some truecrime thing with some English lady talking, and it's just a constant barrage of words. No idea how she retains any of it, especially considering she listens to it while doing other stuff.

    it depends on what your doing I like to listen on Alexa so that if I miss something I can just tell her to rewind without stopping what I'm doing

    I have to pause them sometimes, if I'm doing surveys, but I mostly grind batches. So, the books help keep me from getting bored. Plus, I prefer listening to them over music when I walk, clean, etc.

    This would be a lot better for me, but I don't have any smarthome devices though...

    I usually just blare metal and electronic music in my ears while I'm working or working out so I can stay focused and on task haha. I have a bad habit of just randomly daydreaming or losing focus...

    If I do something like that I lose focus on my task and focus on the music or whatever I am listening to.

    Sitting in my car right now outside of the high school listening to true crime and typing this.
    I almost always have AirPods in listening to books or podcasts. I focus so much better on what I’m doing when I do that. I do retain what I hear.

    but I also got a 4.0 in grad school while always studying or writing with the tv on. I cannot function in silence.
