I'm so sympathetic to this ogre.

Sometimes the reason is because the author is pretentious.

This is how I accidentally named one guy "ThisGuy" and the other, "Thatguy."

On the plus side, Jim Bob the bridge builder is a long term friend I keep looking up when we visit town.

The boyfriend last night was surprised I didn't watch the debate.

"They've both been president. I was paying attention. I know what their presidencies will be like. Why listen to them talk about it?"

As someone else said upthread (and I've told a lot of people myself) if you're depressed but know you can focus and accomplish things, the first thing you accomplish might be suicide.

This is one of the few places where I agree with standard practice. Depression first, then ADHD.

This right here is why so many people with ADHD end up changing jobs so frequently.

I remember that, and I have to say that this attitude contributed to me not thinking there was any point in pursuing help for my MDD.

Don't let the world being shit demoralize you into not trying to improve your lot, ladies, gentlemen and citizens.

Yeah. The lockpicking tools I use and want to use and can't use is just nOrMaL bEhAvIoR u guiyzz!!

We have ADHD. One of the hallmarks is hyperfocus. We will, several times a year, sometimes a month, hyperfocus on a "hobby" and do it every moment we're awake and not at work or school (to the neglect of eating or bathing or sleep) and then, at random, be unable to do it anymore to the point where we can't, even if we want to.

This is an ADHD community. When you see us complaining about "normal" things, we simply aren't putting in the thirty caveats that explain why this thing we're complaining about isn't "normal," because we don't have to explain ourselves to other people with our conditon.

And there is nothing more annoying than hanging out in a safe space for your condition and having people constantly show up to try to explain that this is "normal." It's not. We know it's not. There's books about it. Studies about it. We just shouldn't have to explain the background details of what makes this abnormal every goddamn time!

I dunno. I'm a woman and I didn't notice the skin-tight thing until it was pointed out, but looking back at it, wouldn't any clothes do that at 90 mph?

ACAB but it doesn't look horny to me. She's just woman-shaped to me.

And it doesn't matter where it's located.

You'll just wind up in the queue regardless.

Also what's the worst possible speedball? I am now very curious.

Thank you for backing up my public awareness thingie. People are kinda dumb sometimes so they'll read "it gets you way too drunk way too fast" and they'll miss the part where, "but no you'll hate it."
