Daily Prompt – February 22, 2026

What bores you?

This feels like a loaded question. Boredom is an odd concept with AuDHD. I’m simultaneously always bored and never bored. Things that bore me right now will be interesting tomorrow or next week. There’s no set answer to this except for perhaps small talk. I find small talk incredibly boring. I don’t understand its purpose. People ask things they don’t really care about simply for the sake of making conversation but if conversation is important and desired then why not ask or talk about something you actually care about? The whole concept is confusing and pointless and when people try to engage that way. I will tune out and walk away. It’s pointless.

  1. I remember somebody tutoring me on this type of socialisation. Apparently we are supposed to ask questions about stuff we’re not interested in, then after a set amount of minutes make an excuse to move away from the person and repeat with everyone in the room. There is no honesty: just a ritual of deception and from what I can tell for no purpose.
    Maybe this is why there are mostly neurodivergent people in my life.
    Good for you being genuine.
