I probably fit the “inclusive bisexual” definition better but prefer the label pan. I also like the bi flag better so if I’m ever throwing a flag up it’s usually bi lol. I use pan because I’m agender and it feels kinda weird to say that gender is something I care about when it isn’t, but I find myself more attracted to people that present either androgynous or feminine, but not really masc (except for the ladies sometimes). All that to say, these labels are basically pointless and only serve to (poorly) provide a surface level summary of whatever the hell is going on in our heads

The first person to experience that, along with their doctors, must’ve been freaking the fuck out lmao

What part of the comment you originally responded to ever mentioned that they were an influencer/intended to profit off of their ADHD? You’re fighting ghosts bud. Additionally, you have no way of knowing if these “assholes on social media” are: 1. Lying about their condition 2. Profiting from it and 3. Only doing it for clout. Maybe you’re just annoyed by neurodivergent people being visible and having a platform?

Are you really surprised there’s a large presence of neurodivergent people in this niche corner of the internet? ADHD (and autism) are mentioned often here because a bunch of people on lemmy are chronically online neurodivergent dorks.

Maybe don’t accuse people of faking something and being disrespectful to “those suffering”. I have ADHD, my entire life isn’t suffering. I also agree that hitting a bowl when your Adderall kicks in is a nice experience. Are the pleasant aspects of my existence invalid because I’m supposed to be suffering all the time in your eyes? Are we not allowed to be proud of the way our mind works and celebrate those aspects of ourselves that we enjoy when those aspects are intertwined with our ADHD? From the bottom of my heart, eat shit and mind your own business

Or… Maybe it’s because we have a better understanding of ADHD now and a lot of adults who were failed by the system as children are finally coming to understand themselves and be taken seriously by healthcare providers.

But probably not. Your short sighted, inflammatory, bigoted bullshit is defintiely correct.

Fascists are cowards. A brick to the face will keep most of them from putting themselves in situations conducive to future bricks to the face

I was right there with you for most of my life. Antidepressants changed that for me but I know not everyone is depressed/has access to psych care. Hopefully it clicks for you one day

Me too lol (and a raging transphobe to boot)

E: Dawkins is the transphobe, not me

Oink

What are your thoughts on Richard Dawkins?

Just a word of warning. If you don’t want to do it, you’re never going to. I don’t mean “I want to want to do it”, but actually desire to do it. I paid for a membership for years before I actually went consistently. That money could’ve been spent a million different ways that were better than paying for something I had no desire to use

That’s why I have my meds, deodorant, shoes, hair brush, and hair ties on/near my coffee table. I make my coffee every morning, sit at the couch and (except brushing my teeth) get ready for the day. I let my brain put things where it’ll actually use them.

I just moved a few weeks ago. At my last place all of that was in my kitchen. It’s weird how moving changes where my brain wants to do stuff

I’m an anarchist and anti-electoralist and I still voted for the cop. Blame the democratic party and ignorant libs for the fat Ls we’re all taking. Leftists aren’t a big enough voting bloc to sway the election, and most of us still vote no matter how stupid and pointless it is.

Anything to avoid actually fighting fascism eh?

Check out the behind the bastards episodes on them. Shits crazy

Pourover gang here to also flex on this guy’s roach tea.

Fr though, I dealt* with roaches for years and it was legitimately traumatizing. Any time I feel something brush my leg or I catch a glimpse of something dark in the corner of my eye I begin to panic. I’ve woken up in a cold sweat because I would have dreams of roaches and shit. Truly awful experience

And is still used for the sex. Though in that context it’s usually stated as “going in raw” or “hitting it raw”

Who?

Then you’ll love the source of my plagiarism my muse
