ADHD is neither a flaw nor a superpower IMO, (in most, non severe cases)- most 'ADHD' is a normal neural varient. Some people are starved of dopamine due to desensitization/lack of rewarding tasks in life, and some people have a clinical lack of neurotransmitters that need to be supplemented.
I struggled for years through highschool and most of college with my ADHD, and it wasn't until I (somewhat accidently) found myself working in emergency medicine that I could see it as positive at all.
In a hunter gather society, most of what we term 'ADHD' would be a huge benefit- the ability to rapidly learn, rapidly switch tasks, and do a little of everything. The issue is our current society doesn't reward these traits- we are physically sedentary, and ask ever increasing concentration on ever more abstract tasks of our workers. It's not that you are broken; it's that society doesn't play to your strengths- AT ALL.
In the ER, I'm very happy, because most of my work consists on hyperfocusing for super short stents, then moving on to the next thing. Additionally, I actually calm down somewhat and can self regulate much, much better than I can in ordinary life. As you may know, one of the hallmarks of ADHD is a lack of dopamine- part of what makes concentration so difficult for us and why we seek constant stimulation. In the high pressure, high stimulus enviroment of the ER, it's almost feels like time slows down for me- I feel calm and super focused, which is very rare for me in daily life.
I'm not saying all this to convince you to work in emergency medicine, only to provide a contrast- I used to want to be an engineer, and frankly I would be (even nore) dependent on stimulants if I tried to do a job like that.
The green text peer pressure means nothing to me, but you are 100% spot on about the ecosystem driving sales. My whole family uses apple and I get left out of so many group chats and face times that I've actually considered switching to Apple even though I'm a die hard Note fan. Apples hardware may be nothing special, but they have a killer feature in their seamless, closed ecosystem, and they know it. At the end of the day, a phones job is to communicate, and Apple does that seemlessly- with other Apple devices
Oh so animal farm was literal?

My toxic ex
Idk about uncommon, but definitely not universal or common enough that is surprising when they don't
I thought the devs no longer supported the project?
An ex of mine would keep a tissue to spit it out in. I know it's a personal thing but was always weirdly hard not to be a little offended. Like I doubt a girl would love it if I immediately grimaced and spit after going down on her. I don't really expect bj's, but to me, it's all psychological, and apitters kinda ruin all the fun.

Montenegro is one of the best places I've ever been. If you get a chance, go rafting down the Tara River canyon
As far as I know, it only uses the camera, and doesn't use stored photos. Idk, I've never downloaded it but that's my guess
I mean the "fool unbelievers" thing is stupid but also it's not really unreasonable that if you could speak things into existence and did so for cosmic entertainment or whatever that you would make it at the point that it's actually interesting. Like if I was going to make people I probably wouldn't start with infants, I would start with actual independent ones. Likewise I wouldn't start with an infant universe
As someone who works in emergency medicine, this article sounds very overdramatic. If the patient was so unstable they died receiving care in the back of an ambulance, odds are they weren't going to live in the hospital either
I would impress an irresistable attraction to myself, then coast through life on nepotism and pretty privilege
This is how we end up with Blaine the Mono
Very similar to the ER in that case- every patient is put on a priority scale between 1 and 5 as well. We don't forget about the 5's, but it's definitely a constant battle to remember what I consider non emergent. One of the biggest issues of ADHD is almost toddler levels object permanence...
Yeah I haven't tried the mods either and I kinda suck at the game but I've always felt like it has a low cost to entry, which is why it feels chill to me. A lot of death anxiety in games is due to time investment and, frankly, like BOTW, fear of long loading screens more than any in game punishment.
Ftl has such a satisfying and similar gameplay loop and allows so much pausing that it doesn't really feel stressful for me. I still hate dying and do it a lot in the game, but I can play ftl with a sort of soft mental focus that many other games don't allow me to do
I can make great macarons and croissants, but for the life of me I struggle with making perfect buiscuts
Disregarding my personal views on this subject, this is a straw man argument.
You have very noticably left out that pro-lifers view the fetus as one of these individuals you say the Pro-choice regard so highly. The Pro life argument is that it should be systemically illegal to end the life of what they view as innocent individuals.
Which... yes, is kind of similar to the general take on this article, regardless of your views on the individuality of fetuses
Wait you can't transfer images directly to external harddrives?? Honestly I genuinely wonder why people put up with this shit
This is our decision alone
nobody is saying you can't identify or specify whatever pronouns you want. But it laughable to say it's your decision if other people use them in the name of "tolerance," of all things
I haven't done formal research on the topic, but as far as I can see this is correct- alcohol just lowers your inhibitions and makes you more suggestable, therefore easier to influence by your enviroment- you're way more likely to be depressed and sipping whiskey slowly by yourself than partying with Coronas with lime.
It would be interesting to look at regional ideas of what different alcohols are appropriate for and see if the "effects" change with it
This is something I've thought about for a long while. As a socially awkward kid, I read the stories of King Arthur. One of the stories about one of his knights (can't remember which) the knight is given an enchanted item that charms everyone he speaks to and makes them like him. This immediately captured my fascination as a socially inept kid, but the more I thought about it, it would be living hell.
You would never EVER believe anyone genuinely enjoyed your company again, constantly wondering if it was the enchantment. Even if you removed the item and found someone who liked you natrually without it, normal appreciation or regard would NEVER come close to the enchanted one, and it would now FEEL like they disliked you. It would poison your entire life
Imagine being able to talk to oysters only to find out that oysters can't talk back
...nobody is ordering you around? You are the only one I see making demands, actually. You are welcome to be offended if you like, in fact I give you my permission
I mean, the differences between most words are "technicalities," but that doesn't make them meaningless. It is the technicalities and nuance that makes them useful. Treason is an act of betraying or undermining a state that you belong to, and is not necessarily morally right nor wrong- but obviously extremely negative from the states perspective.
Of course it is. Treason is a specific type of betrayal- a subset of betrayals if you will. That's why there is nuance- they aren't the same thing, because treason is more specific and doesn't apply in this case
On the contrary, being snarky isn't a waste of time at all
We aren't. That's what we said- the value proposition isn't there
Maybe the question should be why the service was only just worth it at 75% down then
Nah it wouldn't make him a liar- it isn't necessarily an attempt to fool humans, in my opinion any God capable of doing something like that did it for their own reasons, not as some cosmic prank
I mean according to some religions he was the one who told people to put some clothes on in the first place
It always annoys me how hard it is for me to make people understand this. I often debate the concept of spirituality and Gods in general, and people (in the US) always reply with some response like 'but catholic church bad.' Which, sure, I'm not disagreeing, but is such a narrow viewpoint and doesn't exactly have anything to do with the possibility of a God or Gods existing.
No, you are completely right, but it's kind of the same with the "we are living in a simulation" thing (there isn't really a functional difference between a God's imagination and a simulation).
A more interesting question to me is not where we came from, but if there is an endgame. Created 5 seconds, 500 million years ago, 'real', or just avatars in a superconsciousness, the question remains- is there a "RIGHT" way to use our agency and experience?
