They hold hands while they sleep. It’s too adorable.

It’s about frequency and how badly it affects your quality of life. I went almost 40 years just self-medicating with caffeine and having lots of coping mechanisms. But with the birth of my second child, it was too much and I couldn’t hold it together. That’s when I got a proper diagnosis and medication.

100% right. I stayed unmedicated until my coping mechanisms started to fall apart. I’m currently on the lowest dose of medication, just to get back to that normal.

Welcome! You’re possibly a self medicating ADHD person.

Otter common signs you should get checked out

• do you sit there paralyzed and unable to do a task, even when you want to do it and know it needs to get done?

• are you weirdly calm and effective in stressful and panicked situations?

• do you get really into a hobby for a while, then drop it forever because you lose all interest?

If so, a diagnosis could be life altering.

What is the point of the label at all?

If I had to choose, the bidet was a bigger life improvement. Both are great though.

It took me a while to take the plunge, but I’m never going back

It’s exactly this. Convenience. We’ve become accustomed to how convenient it is and don’t want to be put out.

On the other hand, it’s super convenient to never go to a gas station again, and to wake up to a full tank. So if you drive less than 60 miles a day, and have acess to another car for long trips, an electric is even more convenient.

I never ate at one until I got desperate on a family trip. Downloaded the app, put in the order, and I’m hooked. Delicious food and didn’t have to talk to people. It’s great.

Nothing gets you over the last one like getting under the next one. Or two. Possibly five.

Get your bottom in that elevator and take it up to the bar

If there’s so many Trans athletes, why don’t they just have a category of their own?

Because there aren’t, and this whole thing is much ado about nothing.

But hey, it keeps the morons distracted and voting, so that’s a plus.

If there’s no god, then what happens to you is more important, not less.

Of course. I ignored it for 39 years. Then I got properly diagnosed and medicated, and it’s a much less depressed existence.

In this scenario, I mean to “participate actively in society and fulfill their basic human needs”.

Though to your point, being in a coma is far from neurotypical.

Maybe they struggle with finances or situations or something. But no, normal people don’t struggle against their own mind to just exist.

Normal is when the crazy you have doesn’t impact your ability to function in society. So no. Not everyone struggles daily to exist.

No particular order fuckin rocks

He never fathomed the depths that YT would drag him to if he didn’t curate his algorithm.

100% this. The algorithms are designed to give you what keeps your attention. You need to be careful about what you give attention to.

This confuses me. You want something without an algorithm… because you used systems before their algorithm kicked in and hated it?

The crap you got was because it didn’t know enough about you to know what you like. Without an algorithm, that’d be your feed forever.
