started calling my executive dysfunction issues my board of dysfunctional executives and treating it like a room of frail old white men and it hasn't fixed everything but it sure is fucking funny

Do you know Diddl?
As a kid in Germany especially in the 90s and 00s I think it's impossible to not know Diddl. But what about other nationalities? Have you ever heard of Diddl???
For reference:
This is Diddl:
a german character that started as a postcard set and then turned into a nationwide phenomenon, especially known for its trading pages.

things i wish i’d been told sometimes
𓂃 your life revolves around you and it always has. if you feel the need to stop and catch your breath, do it. time moves forward, but your life will never be able to continue without you. 
𓂃 the way people talk to you about others is a direct reflection of how they talk to others about you. remember that. 
𓂃 life is too short to stay quiet. your voice carries you as much as you carry your voice. 
𓂃 nobody pays as much attention to you as you think they do. 
𓂃 nobody’s expecting you to do something useful every day. you shouldn’t expect that from yourself either. 
𓂃 nothing that matters to you is useless. if it’s important to you then it’s important, period.
𓂃 don’t live every day like it’s your last–rather like it’s your first. get to know your space, get comfortable where you aren’t yet, try new things but not everything at once. and look forward to things that are coming. 
𓂃 you’re only responsible for what you can control and influence. focus on that. 
𓂃 stop trying to be okay all the time. you do not have to be okay all the time.
𓂃 it’s more common to have a soft and protecting tummy than to have flat abs. both is healthy, both is pretty. 
𓂃 your teens are not your only chance on having a good, fulfilled, and social life. if you can’t find your place in high school you will in another environment. this isn’t where it ends. 
𓂃 you have the right to change your mind over and over and over again until you’re happy.

I think we owe an apology to the Americans, looks like at least some of the issues with their healthcare system can be addressed with guns

Maturing is realizing all we can do is:
يارب اذا هذا الشخص لسا خيرًا لي فأبعده واذا هذا الشخص خيرًا لي فقربه
O’ ‏Allah, if this person is not good for me take them farther, if this person if good for me bring them nearer.

Update: I definitely feel like they’re doing something. I just walked for 15 minutes and my legs didn’t get as heavy, which is so nice. I am also not sweating after walking right now. That might be a coincidence, but usually after I walk and go back to a warmer environment, I sweat, a lot. Thats both pots and not being able to regulate my body temperature due to autism. It might be unrelated, but man this is so nice!!! I don’t know when it last happened to me that I didn’t take off layers on the train after walking. (Also, yes, I am on a train by myself right now, for the second time this month! I hope the burnout from this won’t hit me too hard this weekend.)
In my ✨compression sock-era.✨ I‘ve read that they can help with some pots symptoms so I ordered some simple ones and am trying them out.

let's hear it for the nonbinary folks who:
don't present androgynously
use "binary" pronouns in any capacity
identify partially with a binary gender
have a "gendered" name
don't experience body dysmorphia
don't experience gender dysphoria
DO experience gender dysphoria/body dysmorphia but aren't sure what gender or body would suit them
just experience body/gender apathy instead
can't be open about their gender identity yet
you're all absolutely valid.
don't ever feel like you're "not nonbinary enough" because you absolutely are! 💖

I was feeling very dysregulated this morning and therapy just made it a lot better. I had a nice train of thought last night and realised how much of a coping mechanism writing fiction was for me as a kid. I never fit in anywhere and felt super different from everyone else so I created a world for myself where the main character felt exactly the same until she realised she had magic powers and became part of a world where she was just like everyone else. I wrote about the experience I desperately needed but never had.
