This is very compellingly written but I've found a lot of it not to be true for me. It is gray and rainy and a bummer outside most of the time, so frequent sights of that are like frequent sights of politics news. In my home office, I don't have much of a (detectable) background thread running for who could be at my office door, but opening the window and seeing people walking their dogs etc directly at the edge of my unfenced front yard absolutely causes that sense to flare up, even if they're all harmless and I recognize half of them.

Getting the room cozy and psychologically satisfying was a huge deal, and I"m really glad I did it, but the end result is much closer to horse blinders. I have ADHD, so distraction minimization is the name of the game.

On a secondary large screen in my basement home office, I run this in fullscreen. https://oneminutepark.tv/

That's surprisingly relaxing – thanks for sharing

1) This is so obviously written by an LLM I can’t get past the first paragraph. When will this end? 2) I’m disappointed that this isn’t about a British paranoid schizophrenic.

I'm not disagreeing, as you might very well be right, but... why exactly do you think this is written by LLM? I couldn't find any obvious giveaways myself.

> You’ve built a space that looks like focus but feels like depletion. And you’ve been blaming yourself for the fatigue. The room is the problem. Not you.

I see this kind of weird pacing and dumb "it's not X, it's Y" stuff ALL the time with slop posts on LinkedIn. Classic LLM tells.
