Had occasion to log into Asana for the first time in forever this morning, and was immediately confronted with decade-old tasks for projects that no longer exist and companies than are no longer in business.

That I immediately felt both stressed and guilty could be the basis for someone’s PhD.

The body keeps the list of overdue tasks.

@gknauss that's why no sane person keeps a list like that, Knauss

I really like this one and just wanted to say so.

@gknauss login to what? first time I hear about that. I feel similarly when I look at my old hard drive, with the code of the projects I started but never finished

@gknauss Asana is not a tool for positive mental health. Avoid.

@gknauss On some dark days I wonder if I will outlive my open Asana tickets.

@gknauss when you die, you’re presented in the afterlife with all the task lists you ever made in every app and lost notebook, and must ensure an eternity of still having not done them. The purest souls never made a single task list.
