Building back after AuDHD burnout. INFJ. Imperfect Mommie to 2. In the future, maybe a ND-affirming therapist. Maybe a writer, a teacher, maybe just hanging on. And that's fine! Not interesting enough to be "neurospicy" & I prefer mild seasoning anyway
Oooh, this is worth a deeper dive for those drawn to IFS (Internal Family Systems)! Credit to Siana McGarvey who also posted a list & concise descriptions for 34 possible parts. I love having a list of named parts that I can run through to see if any resonate.(www.therapywithsiana.com/resources)

Preeeeeach!
A lot of 'neurodiversity-lite' initiatives speak about the strengths of ADHD and autism. They don't cover though how that is often a negative for the person when they demonstrate that ability within the company.

e.g. Pattern seeking often means seeing company values aren't honoured. 1/

Every holiday at grandma's, I was the one known to make a beeline to hang with the youngest cousins. It was only in my late 30's that I discovered I'm allowed to hang out with the same-age cousins. I still make beelines for babies, and I embrace the mom excuse that I "must go check on my boys" 💕

Ben Stein is a conservative economist. He reshot this scene during Trump 1.0 on behalf of the National Retail Federation to point out how damaging tariffs are.

Perfect! Sometimes I prefer just to watch videos silently with the captions on. #AuDHD #AuditoryProcessingDelay solved! 💚
Speaking of accessibility, did you know you can add closed captions to thevideos you post? 1/2

Yup. That's what was on my old cat's tag on his collar: "Pete the Bird Murderer"

Despite what you may have heard, y'all birds 🐦 are welcome at bluesky! If the purpose is just to peck at the "libs," tho, fair warning: You'll get bored because there's no algorithm to spotlight furious pecking. 🥰

I know these folks are unhinged and pose a serious threat, but -- and just hear me out ...

I can't shake this pity that I feel for the P-E and his cabinet picks. My theory? The inner child of this narcissist is desperate for the approval of loyalists.

The theory that Trump is nominating people who will be intensely loyal to him because they have been cast aside by everyone else feels devastatingly likely.

I can't wait for more stained glass art in my feed to devastate my soul 🥰 This owl is me on the most debilitating #PMDD days. And yet I look at her and feel so much compassion for the shit she is NOT going to accomplish today.

You rest, girl. You rest!

Atheists and theists are unified by bsky God's promise of a silly ass tattoo. It represents an innocence; 🦋 a flutter; a lightness that we've all found joining bluesky this week!

I command y'all to go follow for a worthy cause 🍑

(And me too if you think my posts qualify as skeetworthy)
that’s a good skeet right there

My workaround is "I know this is exciting to share and I wanna listen but could you please tell me the ending and then fill in the details?!"

I know I talk in circles, too. I wish more people would help redirect me more often but apparently that's ruuuUUude

Hurry the fuck up already, it’s my turn to speak 😂

My eyes are so worn out this evening. They were screaming at me to run away or find cover during a 3hr zoom meeting where I'm required to sit in a room with florescents and ALL the damn chairs face a wall of windows.
*whimper*
I just want my sunglasses!!!
Ive been thinking about how lighting is not all that frequently included in discussions of accessibility--one of my biggest triggers are light and patterns--as someone with epilepsy and migraines, and grocery stores and so many public spaces are so badly lit they leave me a triggered mess.

My children (hopefully!) believe this in their core. Me? I'm taking baby steps to accept it for myself. It's a lot to #unlearn

My grandmother's book of mostly diary entries from when she was 13. She fled Germany with her parents in 1940. I had read pieces of the book but never cover-to-cover until she was in her final years.

Free to download! 🥰
Never forget.

My 6yo saw this and exclaimed in the sweetest voice, "He is a clown? Oh, I see! He must be a funny"

All I could do is giggle. Thank goodness for the innocence of children

Oof. Facts. At the end of my assessment, my ego was shattered when I was handed my IQ score and sent on my merry way to silently process why I let my mensa-level brain go to waste ... Fuuuuuuuuuhhk.

Skippedy-doo-dah all the way home.

Is it a war if the other side isn't fighting back? This sounds more like a sustained terrorist attack than a "war"

Come to think of it, is it a "war on Christmas" 🎅🎄if one side is desperately defending itself against ... an absence of an attack?

I busted into song earlier, and my 7yo starts singing over me, "Please stop...", covers his ears. I can't blame him. In the early 00's, I despised Michael Jackson songs and I'd have to leave the dancefloor in protest, internally wanting to punch the DJ #Misophonia #PDA #PersistentDesireForAutonomy
