I decided to not take my stimulants this morning, went out, and ended up trying a sample of Carolina Reaper based hot sauce during the day. I think there's a lesson in here somewhere.

I started a new job and I've decided I should deal with the resulting non-stop anxiety by writing a short story in the vein of Chuck Tingle. Going to call it "Getting Relentlessly Slammed Over My Desk By Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria".

This is awesome and well deserved. Citizen Sleeper 2 looks at its characters and their struggles with a sense of hope that felt invigorating. And let me tell you, I really needed that when I played it.
Citizen Sleeper 2 received the "Code the Rights - Best Game 2025" award from Amnesty International earlier today, at the CEEGA Awards in Poznań 🥳
It recognizes "games that address human rights topics in an innovative way" and it's a really cool initiative:

I kind of want to ask my doctor about trying guanfacine because I hear it can help reduce rejection sensitive dysphoria, but also I don't want to ask in case he rejects the idea. 🙃

ADHD is truly the late night infomercial of disorders. Like you thought you just had trouble with emotional regulation and executive functioning but then some dude kicks down your door and is like "BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! CALL NOW AND WE'LL THROW IN HYPERMOBILITY AND FACE BLINDNESS FREE OF CHARGE!!"

"Get you someone who looks at you the way Trump looks at Mamdani" was not something I expected to say this year.

Two years ago I was riding the bus and overheard a guy ranting about how "the liberals" are ruining everything and "made Shrek woke". This conversation has haunted me every day since then.

No idea what this game is but I'm buying it immediately.
We banned a guy on the Steam forums for repeatedly saying there were “too many women” in our game
So he flipped his positive review to negative
Still totally worth it

Hardest part about dating with a history of mental illness is the part where I go "ok how many dates should I get in before I mentioned that I was institutionalized when I was 12?"

I have a really hard time getting out of bed in the morning. My counsellor suggested that I set a task for myself to do in the morning (like, make a cup of tea) because my ADHD riddled brain will focus on that and I'll FORGET that I want to stay in bed. And you know what?! THAT WORKS.

I feel like one of the hardest aspects of being neurodiverse is convincing people that they don't need to worry about me when I'm getting teary. I cry pretty easily. Like yeah, maybe for other people if they're crying it means it's the worst day of their life. For me it's Tuesday.

Sometimes I wish that I, a bitch with "can't get anything done syndrome", could get more than a month's worth of medication at a time.

I saw a billboard for NCIS Origins, which I guess takes place in the early 90s? Going to be disappointed if nobody on that show programs a command line interface in C to trace a killer's phone call.

If you work a desk job, you might have been advised to get up and stretch every half hour. Turns out the people recommending that know some shit.
If you’re over 30, quote this with some life advice 🤌🏼

I applied for the Canada Disability Tax Credit on the basis that my brain absolutely hates me enough that I was unemployed for 7 years, and was turned down on the basis that "working and housekeeping do not count as activities of daily living". Wow, working isn't a requirement anymore?! Cool.

When I say "rise and shine, let's get this bread" I am not endorsing hustle culture. I'm saying I need to eat half a loaf of garlic bread before I can function that day.

Most unrealistic part of Severance is that Mark, who is clinically depressed, shaves and does his hair before going to work every morning.
