Buddhist, meteorologist, data scientist, @, fan of nerdy media like Doctor Who, probably not that interesting. I like translating ancient texts in my spare time, so I am super-boring. AuDHD so I am super-awesome. "Woke" af (that means "as foretold")

The hardest part of getting the autism diagnosis was having to track down all of my former lovers to let them know they might want to get tested.

Grab yourself a copy before they're gone. Some of the data are corrupted because the DOJ was in the process of taking the files down while this awesome person was grabbing them and putting this together.

ALL the trigger warnings. Latest from Epstein files about a horrifying Trump did. Whatever you are thinking it might be, it's so much worse. Like I can't stop crying. So read at your own caution.

Also, it's wild that Weiss that this would work. She is aware there's a thing called "Internet," right?

Also the DOJ "redactions" on Epstein files can be removed by Photoshop or even just copying and pasting the "redacted" test.

The slackstick would be hilarious if it didn't deal with such horror

on the upside i doubt it's something that can actually be done. on the downside, someone (them, apparently) are going to really try to do it

The consistent failure of legacy media to point this out is reprehensible. These are Nazis. I am not a "everyone who disagrees with me is Hitler" person. "Nazi" has a specific meaning, and the people running the US now fit it.

It was interesting watching the Daily Wire bet millions of dollars on that belief and fail so badly that the CEO resigned and they may have come close to ending. No, there is not a huge untapped market of secret right-wingers thirsting for your hack entertainment attempts

If we feel like we really relate to each other, and vibe together harmoniously, you should probably look into whether or not you have autism and/or ADHD. Which is meant as a joke, but also, look into it if that's the case.

Just so we're all clear, shutting down the federal government was their goal. The GOP wants to replace democracy with some form of authoritarianism and getting rid of the federal government is a critical step towards that goal. They're going to do everything they can to never let it open ever again.

My cat is very frustrated that I don't do exactly what she wants me to do exactly when she wants it. Which, legit. I know I signed up to be a servant when I took her in, and I'm not quite up to her standards. (She's still happy though.)

A van has driven through a two-storey brick home. The caption reads:

Same as it ever was...
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife

I am really uncomfortable with how long it's been since I came across something and thought, "This cannot possibly be true," fact-checked it, and found it wasn't. And this is another thing that isn't that. This is a real thing that happened.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filling an IV bag from a murky puddle near Trump National's sixth tee. "The president needs parameciums," he tells the assembled media. "It's the only treatment proven to work in real testing." His golf cart is piled high with dozens of dead birds.

This tweet isn't saying that cuddling can't be a "precursor" to sex. It is saying that cuddling (and other forms of sensual intimacy) shouldn't be expected to lead to sex.

Sensual intimacy must be free from the expectation of sexual intimacy. As long as sensual contact is understood to be inherently sexual, we are confining how human beings can express closeness to one another in our relationships to others.

if you're offline or away and i message you something (like a link to a meme or a picture or w/e) honestly just assume that i'm just leaving it there for when you get back and not expecting you to answer straight away. i don't need you to respond with "hey, sorry, i wasn't at the computer!" or anything. i was leaving u a gift for later.

response from slightmayhem:

This also applies if you're online and just don't want to or have the energy to deal with humans in the moment. Just because we have the ability to reply in real time does not mean we have the obligation.

mentalheathmargo:

how do you tell the difference between executive dysfunction, procrastination, and laziness bc fuck idk how to

trainzelda:

idk if you were actually looking for an answer but i talk about this with my therapist a lot so heres his wisdom:

Laziness=You don't want to do a task, so you choose not to, and you're fine with that. You either dont care if it gets done or you figure someone else will do it.

Procrastination=You want to do the task, but you put it off because it seems difficult/boring/time consuming.

Executive dysfunction=You want to do the task, and intend to at that very moment. There is no signficant reason not to, but you can't because your brain is having difficulty transitioning between activities

The key difference, he points out, is that if you experience guilt or shame from not doing it, then it's NOT laziness, because those feelings indicate, on some level, a desire to complete the task

The latter two have more overlap imo, but for myself, I think of it as whether you are having trouble confronting the task itself, or just the transition.

An excellent explanation!
