#Anomia

[rebeccathenaturalist]

TIL that anomia, the inability to remember words, can be a symptom of ADHD (I haven't been formally diagnosed, but I tick enough of the boxes, and it matches what I learned when in grad school for my psych degree.) I will sometimes be teaching and I can't remember the name of a given organism I'm trying to refer to as an example. Like I can see the actual wildflower/bird/mushroom/etc. in my head, or I'm actually looking at it in person, and I can't remember either the common or scientific name. It is absolutely maddening, but at least it's likely just another exciting neurodivergent thing and not, you know, a degenerative neurological issue. (Obviously if it ever gets worse or I start having issues with the names of common stuff I'll go get checked out.)

I keep telling my students that my brain has holes in it and sometimes words fall out, but it's good to have some data behind the joking explanation.

oooh board games! whats your favorite quick playable board game? do you have a favorite one that takes a long time to play?

i love board games!!!!!!! i wish i could have board game nights every week

but tbh im kinda bad at trying new ones unless my friends suggest it lol im kinda fine with playing my faves over and over (also ive never rly played the like. four+ hour campaign ones)

my fave board game is definitely scattergories. i fucking love scattergories and i could probably play it all night. it's played in rounds so it can either be short or long!! same with qwixx, it's very fun and more dice/numbers, but also played in rounds

for longer ones, ive rly been liking mysterium and dixit!! i also managed to snag the chocolatier version of azul which is super fun once you get the hang of it (i also got briefly addicted to the knockoff phone game lmao)

I feel like Brennan is kind of a douche? like I really don't enjoy watching him be overly competitive on game changer, and i get this sense from him that he's trying to show everyone how clever he is even though he's just average (e.g. some of his d20 npcs are poorly researched caricatures of certain nationalities, according to some anons here recently).

i also wonder if people just pretend to like him because he executive produces, and they'll stop getting calls if they say anything remotely negative

Right so I'm humoring this one as a generalized reminder to the ceaseless watchers of this blog: Y'ALL DO NOT KNOW WHAT ANY OF THESE PEOPLE ARE LIKE

YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE REAL THEM, EVER, IN YOUR LIFE ACTUALLY. except maybe that one confessor who met a cast member irl, and even then, a one off encounter is not much. THESE ARE ALL CHARACTERS THEY PLAY. Brennan's competitive spirit is much more toned down if you've ever seen him in older Um Actually videos and for example, the Polygon Anomia/Skull video. Since gaining a reputation as competitive, they played it up, and now it's part of his archetype, in the same way Grant being overly horny is part of his. YOU DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSUME SHIT ABOUT THE REAL PEOPLE BEHIND THIS SHOW because, and i cannot stress this enough you don't know who they are

and I am not about to let the most baseless and random accusation of workplace intimidation conspiracy theory type bullshit just fly round here. You realize how insane that last paragraph is right? that shit is like, a workplace harassment lawsuit you're just baselessly accusing a guy of because you don't like the character he plays

i know this is tumblr, but this is the most "shitty calloutpost" ask I've gotten, it's got all the works, a bunch of unconnected reasons why he's a bad person with no evidence, lots of uninformed opinions, and a cherry on top, the slander is all wrapped up in a bow of anonymity.
