I keep saying this but it’s at least very interesting that many doctors didn’t think ADHD persisted into adulthood until you couldn’t buy Ritalin over the counter anymore and most people stopped smoking.
yeah tbh I’d really rather be on ADHD meds and NOT have to develop a two pack a day cigarette habit as someone who’s never smoked before just to function
I guess I can drink twelve coffees a day while chain smoking if you want me to do this in a socially acceptable manner, I just don't see how that's better for my physical or mental health than Vyvanse, y'know?

Why is Black Friday automatically populated on my calendar (the shopping one, not its namesake)

Remember my big haircut a couple weeks ago? That was mainly because I was noticing (as I periodically do) that I was losing so much hair & I can't stand having hairs all around. I often notice this happening when it's fall and my hair has grown past my shoulders.

Huh, turns out us humans really do shed our hair on a seasonal basis:
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19407435/
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19407435/
Seasonality of hair shedding in healthy women complaining of hair loss - PubMed
These results confirm the findings of former authors who have indicated seasonal changes in human hair growth, though this is the first study performed systematically in a representative number of women.

My dreams lately have been much more closely aligned with reality (people & things look like the actual people & things they're supposed to be) and I keep having these moments when I first wake up of not being totally sure if I'm thinking of a memory or a dream.
That part's a little disconcerting.

On my way to work today I saw an old bearded man standing at the corner of a big intersection holding signs about "release the files."
He was completely by himself, demonstrating right in front of rush hour traffic.

118 billion people have lived and died on this planet. In the time it takes me to type and post this, another 6 will go. It isn’t necessary to feel feelings for all of them, or to extend sympathy or empathy to people facing the direct consequences of their career involvement in a violent cult.
The probability is extremely high that she is receiving credible threats from MAGA cult & WH as well.
It's not necessary to agree with her, like her, trust her or invite her to our table. But our "tent" aught to at least be large enough to acknowledge the real danger she is in.🤷🏻♀️

In reversal, Coast Guard again classifies swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The new order came hours after The Post reported the service would instead classify such symbols as “potentially divisive” under guidelines set for release next month.

I don't believe in ghosts right up until someone says: There's a ghost in the basement of our workplace and many people have seen him
do you believe in ghosts or are you like me, a person who finds themself saying all the time “I absolutely don’t believe in ghosts, but this place has ghosts.”
