Just left a poor review of an item on Amazon. So now I have to go and make sure I leave several 4-5 star reviews on other items and books I've bought in the past so that my brain doesn't make me feel like I only ever complain about things.

Somehow I wasn't diagnosed AuDHD until I was almost 40.

Hideo Kojima proposed a "forgetting game" that the player would have to “play through quickly.” In this concept, the main character gradually forgets important information and abilities if you take too long a break from the game. bit.ly/4kiro8U

Today is #longcovidawarenessday

If you’re not aware, LC, like ME/CFS, devastates lives. And the medical profession has almost entirely abandoned sufferers.

And now in the U.K., it sounds as if most will now lose their PIP.

I’m currently in a Long COVID dip where I just want to sleep for most of the day and my brain is even less well-equipped to cope with things than usual.

It is, however, #longcovidawarenessday, so… be aware. This thing fucking sucks.

I am once again begging you to understand that a man can be good at art AND a monster. Pretending once the truth comes out that the art was never actually that good only shelters the next monster.

I’ve had migraines for decades.

My GP saw this note on my long COVID clinic assessment, and asked if I’d ever tried Sumatripan.

Just had my first tablet when I had signs of a migraine this morning.

Holy fuck, game changer.

I’d usually be in pain for days. I started to feel better in 40 mins.

I really wish Google would let me opt out of their AI answers.

Every so often I give it the benefit of the doubt, when it looks like it’s just wholesale lifted the response from the top answer.

It is NEVER right. It’s editorialised that search result and removed accreditation.

Huh.

I didn’t have “pigeon murder over the last week” on my list for therapy today but we somehow ended up there anyway with mutual anecdotes…

(Neither of us directly murdered a pigeon… to my knowledge)
