At some point it's got to be easier to get it over with and just do the damn dishes. (sh.itjust.works)

Our dishwasher leaks and we dont have the money to fix or replace it. So its all manual washing dishes... when the last bowl, plate and utensil is gone.

I’m quite a procrastinator myself, I’ve found gamification helps get chores done (e.g. do the dishes after dinner, get an hour of gaming time guilt-free).

Throw on a podcast or long-form YT video/stream VOD and shit gets done pretty painless.

This is the way. I've learned more Elden Ring lore during my dishes and laundry chores than I have playing the game. It takes me longer, because I get distracted by the video, but it doesn't bother me because I'm engaged with something.
