I am experiencing the opposite. I'm doing what I can to be productive but the world is suddenly full of things beyond my control. So I control the things I can, improve the things I can, and spend my evenings drinking Bushmill's and playing Horizon Zero Dawn.

I was radically more productive when my day was not subject to constant interruption by Charlie the Shouter and the utter derailment of my daughters now-from-the-couch education. Not only that, the only control I have is to write scathing emails to the people who saddled us with this bullshit software. So I don't worry so much about wasting my free time because fuckin' hell I need SOMETHING that awards me points, goddamn it.
