ADHD is so funny it's like I diagnose you with lazy inconsiderate fuckup disease. And it's incurable. Here's meth

Last time I drove through the Rockies in November we had a wind warning in Wyoming of about 50 mph wind gusts, so lightweight, high-profile vehicles had to stay off the highway. I was chugging along on the last leg of my drive before I stopped for the night when I started getting battered to hell by gusts just after dark and I was like these are NOT 50 mph anymore. I knew I needed to pull off but the last exit was like 40 miles behind me with no way to turn back whatsoever so I kept going, looking for any pulloff. An interstate sign said gusts were 90 mph now and the highway was closed. I finally found an exit to a dirt road onto some ranch. Definitely not ideal or safe to be on someone's random ranch, but I assumed they'd had it happen before. I parked my car in a ditch and the wind rocked my shit all night but honestly it was super cozy like a cradle!! I always have food & water & good camping gear so I just snoozed til sunlight & when I woke up, a bunch of other people were parked around me. I got out and saw this storm on the horizon

I said nah, I'm headed back the way I came for the night. I started moving and everyone else got up and followed me and I ended up the unofficial leader of a caravan on dirt & mud roads for nearly two hours. I saw a several herds of pronghorn, which was super cool. Finally made it to a tiny town just as it started to snow, with a single motel and I got a room and as the lady handed me the key she very sternly said, "NO cleaning fish allowed in the rooms. the scales do NOT come out." Which was a very Wyoming rule to have to set verbally to guests.

A seemingly mundane topic but this is how corporations eat away at our livelihood…One product at a time.

my other grounding technique is remembering that the earliest abolitionists & the earliest suffragists had no proof that the world would ever make possible what they fought for and indeed many of them did not live to see it come to pass. and yet they did not succumb to despair so it would be disrespectful to their memory to let it overtake me

is there a label that ACTUALLY means 'attraction regardless of gender' and doesn't have transphobic origins?

yes it’s called “bisexual”

I'm starting to get the impression that you guys really do think the curtains are just blue.

in all seriousness it's very alienating knowing theres Something Wrong With You. like seeing your mental illness come through in your behaviour and thought processes and knowing it's irrational and unhealthy, knowing other people are reading you as weird or stupid, and not being able to do anything about it is such a lonely experience

Why do so many people make tiktoks while they're clearly driving. What the fuck. Stop that shit, you're gonna kill someone.

This concept is so alienating and weird to me because 1) having honest but developmentally appropriate conversations with your children about the world around them and why things are the way they are and listening to their questions and opinions is SO important especially now and also 2) as someone who was raised by a powerful dynasty of libs in the early 2000s I learned who Dick Cheney was and that we hated him because he liked to start wars which were bad at age 4 and learned who Jesus Christ was at age 5

If your boss could, they would work you to death and dump your body behind your workplace without the police caring. If they cannot do this to you right now, that is historically contingent - they used to be able to do this to you, they currently can do this to other people, and in the future they will likely be able to do this to you again. The only thing that has ever prevented them from doing so is worker organisation and violent resistance against violence. You are livestock to the ruling class. Never trick yourself into thinking that these people will not slaughter you as soon as it benefits them, and do not avert your eyes from the slaughter now.

the amerikkkan masses of adolph treatlers explain trump’s tariffs. if amerikkkans can’t consume products, they may possibly do one million 9/11’s on the white house, regardless of political affiliation. godspeed, my fellow workkkers.

i dont know its just so funny again to be an imperial core lefty going "well anarchists, unlike communists tend to do stuff for the people 🙄" because, just on top of my head, peoples republic of china that eliminated extreme poverty; malaria smallpox, poliomyelitis, leprosy, filariasis, neonatal tetanus and blinding trachom for 1.4 billion people (%17.39 of all humanity) should just be pretended to not exist
