My apologies. I can’t say I’ve done this a lot, as I’ve always been concerned this was the case. I’ve made the necessary adjustments.

You look nice today.

Have you not seen how big number can be? Number can just get so big. I don’t even care that I’m ADHD and I’m playing into all the worst stereotypes about us:
NUMBER GETS BIG
I’m fairly sure it was Scientific Linux because that was the distro used in the labs of my first programming course.
At some point soon you’re going to solve it in front of someone whilst you’re fidgeting, not even really focussing on it and you’ll blow their freaking mind and you’ll feel great.
Remember the GM of a TTRPG session I was playing was running a session and he noticed I’d been solving it when he’d assumed I’d just been fidgeting. He literally interrupted the session to exclaim ‘Oh my God, you solved it!’ and it took me a good few seconds to realize what he was talking about, as my attention was primarily on what he was saying and I was just idly solving.
Enjoy it when it comes :)
Elvanse (Vyvanse) has definitely made me more tense but it’s always made me less anxious and depressed because of how it’s improved my executive dysfunction.
ADHD here. Speedcubing. It’s a wonderful hobby for me. When I’m interested in it, I can learn some new things and time myself to see how I’m doing. When I’m not interested in it, I can solve it and it helps me to focus on watching TV. Even if I’m not solving it, it feels great just to twist in your hands.
Look up a good budget speedcube (not Rubik’s branded) and invest yourself as much or as little as you fancy.
I’ll try and keep this in mind, thank you.
Come on. Few people are as angry with our society as it stands as I am but the United Kingdom is fit to burst with amazing cultural heritage which we should share with the world (some of it we didn’t even steal!).
Furthermore, for as regressive and bigoted as a lot of our media and politicians are, a very large proportion of British people are tolerant, curious, and kind-hearted.
The United Kingdom is much more than our current and historical governments. If we are ever going to establish ourselves as a force for good in a worsening world, we need people to realize that we genuinely are more than Brexit, Rwanda deals and Partygates.
Getting the Tories under 100 seats at the next GE and encouraging the Labour party to not be afraid of being a tolerant, democratic socialist party are the first steps towards that.
Truth or Consequences, NM
Heard it on a true crime podcast once and obviously I had to look up how it got its name and now it’s just stuck.
EDIT: Missed the never travelled to qualifier. I’ve been to California twice and NYC once. Only heard of Truth or Consequences after my travels.
No joke, I find your positive outlook incredibly admirable :)
Long may your good health continue.
Thanks for your perspective. My morning coffee definitely agitates it but I’m pretty good at drinking lots of water.
Will update the post with my psychiatrists perspective, if I can without compromising my privacy.
Thank you for your input. I hope you get what you’re after with tweaking your dosage.
I’ve contacted my psychiatrist.
Thank you for your input. I’ve updated my original post with the reason I haven’t spoken to a doctor yet.
Thank you for your input. I’ve updated my original post with the reason I haven’t done so yet.
Thanks for the detailed response. I’m sorry to hear you had to go through something so traumatic.
Like all reasonable people interested in linguistics, I’m a descriptivist. However, something about the idea of language being adapted to cater to an algorithm turns my stomach.
I know it’s hypocritical. The Attention Economy shouldn’t be any less valid a linguistic influence than the Norman Conquests, just because they occurred a millennium ago.
I genuinely think we’re lucky in Britain that the soft power we have (for the time being) has prevented our culture being entirely supplanted by the United States.
I’m delighted to hear that I’m not alone 😅
