Research on the physiological roots of procrastination have been concerned with the role of the prefrontal cortex, the area of the brain that is responsible for executive brain functions such as impulse control, attention and planning. This is consistent with the notion that procrastination is strongly related to such functions, or a lack thereof. The prefrontal cortex also acts as a filter, decreasing distracting stimuli from other brain regions. Damage or low activation in this area can reduce one's ability to avert diversions, which results in poorer organization, a loss of attention, and increased procrastination. This is similar to the prefrontal lobe's role in ADHD, where it is commonly under-activated.

This might come as a shock to the Lemmy community, but I have zero interest in ever learning how to code.

You'll find all sorts of absurd state laws on the books all over the country, often as soon as something changes federally, they're just forgotten about and never changed.

This was the law that was challenged in Lawrence v. Texas that had the Supreme Court overturn such laws nationally in 2003

My 7 year old loves Minecraft and I've been learning about it, but could never see myself choosing to play it independently

80s kids play Minecraft? I was almost 30 when that was released and definitely missed that boat
