Hey. UK friends, give 'em a piece of your mind.
For those of you in the UK, especially if you are a UK citizen, can you please take part in the consultation on changes to Indefinite Leave to Remain (Settlement) that were just proposed by the UK government. We need as many people as possible to reject these proposals. www.gov.uk/government/c...
Earned settlement
The government is consulting on how the current settlement system should be reformed and how those reforms should be implemented.

Honestly think the easiest value to society you can add as a bloke is to stand up for women you don't know.

We really need finer control over what reposts we see here. I love people I follow sharing more cool art or science I wouldn't otherwise see, but for heaven's sake, let me turn the politics down by about 90% 😭

S3e8 was trippy and wonderful.

S3e9 was trippy and what-the-fook 🤨

Lol, "F" and Smol Jedi should meet up and trauma bond some day
Mkay, time to finish off #StarWars Visions. Then I'll maybe actually use that fancy gaming console for gaming
(it's mostly functioned as a set top box since I finished Survivor 😆)

This is a really nice font to have. In addition to being readable it hits that attractive-yet-unobtrusive sweet spot, and it’s TOTALLY FREE

I use it in talks because it's pretty and also because, as an audience member, I am perpetually squinting at people's slides

@kateelliottsff.bsky.social, you tricksy monster (lovingly). For a minute there, I seriously considered throwing my Kindle across the room!!😅

OK, I've just finished #StarWars Visions s2, and The Pit is one of my favourite entries in the whole series so far, but on the flip side, I also couldn't get Andor s2e8 out of my head towards the end of it

It isn't just the big traumatic events that impact our ability to cope and function. Small traumas, such as barriers, micro-aggressions, and unexpected friction also have an impact.

Worse, we never face only one of these at a time, but rather the sum of them all together

Why would one take the best seat on a double decker and then stare at their phone for the whole journey? 🤨

Sitting at 53% now. I was able to at least get the electric bill taken care of so they won't disconnect. Now, focus is on the rent.

Thank you SO SO MUCH to everyone that has shared and donated so far. ❤️💕

Executive dysfunction is a core component of ADHD and often involved in autism, depression, bipolar, and OCD.

It's a big barrier with widely ranging impacts, from struggles getting started to being unable to stop, from memory issues to indecision.

But, what exactly is executive dysfunction? 🧵

Starting #WheelOfTime and it’s giving feminist vibes… kind of excited to see three dimensional female characters with power, who know themselves and who trust their gut in the midst of ridiculousity.

I hope this is real. #AGirlCanDream

I tried very hard to get switch from the insulin pump to injections, and it went extremely poorly so here we are starting to raise funds for next year to hopefully keep me going another year!

Tips welcome, money not advice! 😉💕💸

Where are the jobs where you start random things you're interested in, but never finish them, but also work 15 hours straight when you're feeling it, but completely skip other days, all without anyone making you feel bad for it?

I think I know a couple ADHD'ers that are exceptionally qualified
