Thanks for confirming you’ve got no good intentions & are just being ableist 👍

Exactly - I don’t know what you have- YOU’RE the one who said you don’t think you have “true” ADHD and used the air quotes… again, in a community specifically for ADHD. That is invalidating to everyone with ADHD who reads it in a society that doubts the existence of our disability altogether.

I’m telling YOU that YOUR posts give off BIG “hey you don’t have ADHD, you just aren’t fixing yourself right” energy. That’s not me gatekeeping - that me advocating against ableism. That attitude kills people. This is me educating you. And if you can’t understand that or at least respect the impact your attitudes & theories might have on a vulnerable community, I guess I’d have to ask - why are you HERE? Because it’s not to help, if that’s the case.

You keep saying shit like “uninformed speculation” and you don’t think you have “TRUE” ADHD but still spouting your theories about “fixing” shit that can’t be fixed guy…. In a forum FOR people WITH ADHD. ADHD is a disability. I have been diagnosed “officially” but I’ve seen the effects being undiagnosed on people has and don’t begrudge anyone a self diagnosis if they’ve self educated. It doesn’t seem you have. You’re invalidating and mocking people with a recognized disability. Stop.

The “answers provided by the quiz” just serves to allow for the demonization of critical, democratic entities/institutions with no regard for nuance or root cause.
Unchecked capitalistic exploitation ≠ politicians
Information manipulation and exploitation ≠ media

Media (& social media) & politicians are not inherently bad. “An incantation some people mutter to conjure broad, bland, completely unspecific justice” indeed.

Thank you for asking questions! ❤️ We are constantly being misled

I’m with you basically and was also taught average = mean. If you meant median or mode you had to say so. 🤷‍♀️ This feels like when I learned my blood isn’t blue because it’s deoxygenated lol

My brain has stopped functioning since this AM 🤣 but that’s fair re: “echo chambers in general” - just the “both sides” rhetoric and the specific questions about “dem echo chambers” had me wondering what specific problematic issues were stemming from that. I was gonna be specific but I can no longer find/follow the convo - Oy old age ig - thank for taking the time to answer.

Maybe easier to rent for pest control? That would be my most practical guess. Also subject to different building codes normally and faster to build than high rise apts.

What do you feel are the problematic issues stemming from the “dem echo chamber”?

I want to celebrate but isn’t part of the plan / what the conservatives want though? So they can appeal it to the Supreme Court and get permission to pass these laws nationwide?

Not to be a bummer, but those few hundred are just the successful - there’s plenty of struggling folks who are happy with this cause they think their hard work will pay off and they’ll be rich someday too or self-hate/think they don’t work hard enough/as hard as a CEO and deserve to struggle. They’re not just trying to get by, they’d let your kid starve too if they got the chance to make a buck from it.

Yes and so will personal property confiscations (cash, vehicles, etc) I.e. police budget bonuses

Sleep stuff sucks, sorry you’re having a hard time. One thing that helps me - I bought some smart lights and programmed them to a schedule. They all go red and dim a couple hours before bedtime so I know to start winding down. The tv backlight also gets dimmed. It’s a nice little routine / cue. Supposedly minimizing blue light exposure before bedtime is good for your sleep?

I hope someday we can start seeing children as people instead of property.

How do you cope with knowing better

BIG IME - I think sometimes you gotta accept that maybe you don’t necessarily know better (it’s hard, i know).

Especially with dev work (especially open source) - sometimes you’re limited by available technology, time, resources (servers, bandwidth, people, blah blah), etc. Your ideas may be good but not feasible (at the moment), for example.

That’s not to say you can’t put forth your idea - repeatedly even. Keep being part of the conversation and ask questions, make suggestions. You just have to work on letting go of the frustration and seek to do some understanding of your own. The more you understand & learn, the more clearly you can communicate your own ideas using language / frameworks devs or others are more familiar with and the easier it might be to get buy-in for your ideas.

I’ve also found it helps to refine the problem statement - outline the issues and problems without offering solutions straight away & see if others note the same problems? It seems silly, but sometimes it’s easier to get folks on board with problems…
