You can't fool me, those bricks are mortared together!

Well maybe not mortared but like stuck or you need extra tools to loosen them so the task requires some extra effort and you feel like someone is actively sabotaging you and at some point I give up and put it back.

E.g. Make doctor's appointment / clarify something medical.

Your doctor is on vacation though, the replacement is not helpful and requesting you go somewhere else and on the end you need to go in a clinic for a few hours. Wish this was made up.

Everything is linked therefore can’t be done

So incredibly often. I've found a good strategy is to deliberately bundle in tiny, easy to do tasks that then make actually picking it apart task by task easier.

For example, I'll have a task to do laundry, but also one to just move a few things off my desk to keep it clean. Once I do that, it's a lot easier to just stand up and grab my laundry to go do that, too.

Hell, one of the tasks can literally just be "finish writing the list of tasks"
