people say folks with adhd struggle with "delayed rewards" aka long term goals and as such we tend to focus more on short term rewards. what they don't talk about is that at when we Do accomplish long term goals we don't actually feel anything proportionate to the amount of work we did to achieve it. In my head I suffered for a while and then money spontaneously appeared in my bank account.

my first night in germany i was invited to a small town's annual festival celebrating the consecration of their church. there i quickly learned that every single german knows the words to "Hit the Road, Jack." even if they don't speak english they know the sounds. ever heard a biergarten full of people chanting words they don't quite know? fucking uncanny is what it is

“My son turned out fine”

Ma’am, your daughter was convinced she was unlovable if she wasn’t the smartest person in the room, then replaced that complex with the belief she was unlovable if she wasn’t pretty. What the fuck do you mean she’s fine

You know AI guys are living in another reality bc the amount of terror I would feel if a computer sent me, unprompted, an image of a blank-expression copy of myself trapped in a endless hallway of mirrors is frankly indescribable

You're passing through Wonka's factory and through a doorway you see what is distinctly the body of Christ being fed into a big wacky machine

this is so far beyond the point of the article that i didnt wanna say it in the tags but in the story about the trans women running a surgery clinic from their barn, there's a line about how it was easier to "pass" in rural areas in the early aughts because rural women aren't expected to meet the same standards of femininity as city women, and i just. YEAH.

i actually didn't know that "short hair, no makeup, wears flannel" was a butch dyke stereotype until WELL into my late teens, simply because that described about 80% of the middle-aged women With Husbands i knew.

it's been making me fucking crazy to watch the obsession with "clockability" rise because the divide between cis women and trans women is so small as to be nonexistent. i'm fucking flabbergasted watching men who wouldn't have blinked twice at a pair of trans women in 2005 now, in 2025, being like "better watch for jaw scruff and a bump in the throat and a deep voice and and and--"

because like. THAT IS THE CIS WOMEN AROUND YOU. THAT IS YOUR CIS WIFE?? THAT IS YOUR CIS MOM AND COWORKER AND SISTER AND DAUGHTER.... women just fucking look like that!! cis or trans!! oh my god!!

trans women are by far in the most danger from this rise in rhetoric, it fucking Guts Me to think about those same neighbors in 2025 being a lot Less Chill bc of whatever nonsense they've heard on fox news. but good god, it's fucking. it drives me insane. The Sex Binary Does Not Exist. Stop .

I think toy doctors are so nice actually like i remember being a little heartbroken kid when one of my beloved stuffed animals got old and torn up and my mom just threw him out. And i know what it would have meant to me, to have someone lovingly stitch him back up instead so i could love him just a little longer. And I'm really glad there are little kids out there who get to see pictures of their stuffed animals and dolls with little fake hospital beds and casts as they "rest & heal" before returning to them good as new. Like what a sweet thing to do with your life.
