Perhaps this is some sort of internalised ableism but I used to have this internal dialogue where I’d reflect on how difficult it was to do “boring” things and a straw man NT person would sarcastically imply that “it must be nice” to have an excuse to get out of “boring” tasks.

Um, fucking no. If you think about it for like two seconds, you realise how much of being a happy, independent and healthy adult relies on being able to complete tasks that aren’t immediately captivating. Those tasks still need doing, I don’t want someone else to do them for me. You’re left with either waiting on when the ‘inspiration’ strikes you, having to improvise some game or arbitrary reward structure just to clean two dishes or you just rawdog your way through the task and you feel every second of the boredom and come out the other side feeling worse than when you started because no satisfaction from completing the task can pay-back the effort you put into completing it.

That’s why ADHD adults burn-out. Without medication, every day you end with a ‘motivation deficit’ where no satisfaction from completing tasks can cover the costs of the determination and focus one spent to start those tasks. Eventually you just ‘default’ and you can’t do anything any more.

Stimulants to me feel like a small loan on every task. It’s a fine balance but they actually let me come out of tasks semi-regularly with more energy/motivation than I started. And when you have a surplus, productivity begets productivity.

What a well-produced, entertaining, and interesting video. Thank you for sharing. Furthermore, the extension referenced at the end: Indie Wiki Buddy is such a fantastic idea. I’m shocked I hadn’t heard of it sooner. Already installed it on my mobile browser.

Evolutionary, what advantage could this possibly hold?

How can they be racists?! They’re middle-class!

Christ I hate The Express.

Sweet Caroline. No question.

Ha! As if a mere angle could out-influence my rejection sensitivity.

Can’t wait for the Boomers to come out and say:

THIS ISN’T WHAT WE LEARNED IN SCHOOL; THEY’RE REWRITING SCIENCE

I may carry the dubious distinction of being the first Jewish artist to be de-platformed and defunded by Germany

The first? You sure about that?

Wow, what a profoundly uninspiring driver line-up to advertise your GP.

Mercator stans will try and convince you that Russia and Canada aren’t actually islands with thousands of miles of ocean isolating them from all their neighbours smh my head 😤

Shush, that’s the secret European country only rich people know about…

Really excited to hear what you think.

Have you ever tried a Paradox Grand Strategy game?

Sorry, my previous comment wasn’t very helpful. I still only have like 70hrs online play in Dota. I’m very new. I dislike hearing when I play badly but I know that I am playing badly but I’m trying to get better, so it doesn’t bother me.

If I was actually somewhat good and I had people flaming me, it might bother me more. I kinda get that it sucks for people in Unranked queue when I play badly, so I just mute them and try to play better.

Mute early and often.

Cheers. It was an odd one to figure out. At first I believed it was just the ports, then I believed it was just the switches. I couldn’t find anything wrong with the stems. Lubing didn’t change anything.

Furthermore, one naturally assumes it’s something wrong with the North end, with the stem feet and the contact. 99% of the time, there’s no need to even look at the South end.

FYI I have posted an update.

Oh, I know. I adore Haskell.
