  • This might sound silly but I tried it as a little kid and it was sooooo hard to push the pedals for whatever reason that it completely turned me off from the whole idea. And I was also only allowed to basically ride around in tiny circles in our driveway because all we have in our area is narrow roads with no sidewalks where people drive their dodge rams at 50mph around corners. And it's still like that where I live now so yeah.

    Weird how they all seem to be quite aware that America is an empire and is fucking everything up and basically 1/3rd of the world hates us now, but then Scott Ritter is just like "And THATS why you need to vote "

    Like dude you know where we're at, right? Like they literally stole your passport. I don't get it.





  • My friends are teachers and they constantly rant about how atrocious their student's behavior is and they blame millenial "gentle parenting" which always rubs me the wrong way but idk what to say to them about it. Well, it's rather that they're saying people are trying to do gentle parenting but getting it wrong and doing "permissive parenting" instead. But like, I'm pretty sure their behavior is a result of deteriorating economic/social conditions, not because they're "iPad kids". But they're the ones with direct experience so I don't feel right arguing about it with them. I don't spend time with kids all day and talk to their parents.

    Also I have a lot of school trauma from being undiagnosed neurodivergent so I never know if it's just me being triggered by their teacher-like behavior or if it's a legit annoyance with the way they talk about children.




  • Thank you!! meow-hug

    I also showed this to my mom and she relates to a lot of it too.

    I know I could try other types of stimulants other than Vyvanse, but I'm scared to try again because of how badly it fried me... I feel like I'm just starting to recover from that, and that was last year. I'll bring this up to my therapist though.

    Also I'm taking zoloft because it seems to help reduce my sensitivity, but I'm wondering if I should be trying something else, but I'm afraid to go off of it...


  • This sounds exactly like me, and now you've convinced me I have both as well lol. First I thought inattentive adhd, then after stimulants it was clear I had autistic traits. The stimulants burnt me out so hard (and guanfacine made me sick) that I was convinced that they didn't work for me because I have actually been autistic this whole time and not ADHD. Otherwise the meds would have worked, right? So I've been talking to my therapist about my autism. But every single thing you just described is like you read my mind. Now what?

    (also do you have any advice for how to get a routine going? I think that's what I need the most right now.)



  • I think the unkind interpretation of ultras is that they're western government plants, which I'm sure at least some of them are.

    They definitely kept me from reaching my full communist awakening for a while. I was stuck in radlibville because these types would come out and bring up red scare propaganda or whatever mistakes they made and be like "SeE??? iT dOeSnT wOrK!!!!" so it kinda just made me feel like ????? I guess you can't do anything but vote then???? Idk (how convenient.... ) thonk
