ADHD can mean periods of hyperfocus OR task paralysis. And while task paralysis may mean a tendency to "doomscroll on our phones or stare out windows, [it] can also look like 'procrasti-activity, doing all the other less important things on the list.'"

What the experts want you to know about these key ADHD symptoms
Some people refer to Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder as "a superpower" while others describe their ADHD symptoms as debilitating. Can both be true?

In 2015, a man commented "looks great!" on a picture of a cake his niece had baked, and that is the last normal thing anyone has said on the internet.

I'm probably not alone as an artist who's a bit burnt out and drained right now. But this. This right here keeps the fire going. Science like Doug's allows my art to exist. We all have to keep working and making and showing up so everybody gets to do what they want to do.
On Monday I braced for this most recent round of JPL layoffs by looking around my office for what I cared about most to take it home in case I never got to return. I grabbed just one thing - the beautiful bowl by @amyraehill.bsky.social inspired by the false color postcard I took with Curiosity.

My wife is a 'clutter makes me anxious and overwhelmed' neurodivergent. I am a 'if I can't see it, it doesn't exist' neurodivergent. When we redo the kitchen we're getting glass cabinet doors as a compromise because I literally do not know what is in those cupboards.
people without ADHD don’t understand how EXPENSIVE it is to clean the house. If I put it away I will literally NEVER SEE IT AGAIN and now I have to buy all new stuff and my house is EVEN MESSIER

If my writing about autism does anything, whether it be in my books, my columns or my reported stories, I hope it advances the idea that autistic people are whole human beings as they are with legitimate needs and inner lives that deserve to be told the same as other stories.

It’s telling that it’s mainly cis, straight, able-bodied people crying, “How dare someone lose their life over politics!” That reaction shows they’ve never had skin in the game. For them, politics is abstract. For the rest of us, politics is survival—how we navigate the world just to stay alive.
