[catsconflictscopicsandchamomile]

something fucked up abt randomly scrolling through John Winchester's Journal on archive.org (listen I'm PROCRASTINATING procrastinating), getting excited when an entry mentioned that they'd be heading to Albuquerque (where I moved last fall and currently live rn)... and then the next entry is dated March 17th. today.

(the entry is on succubi, if you're wondering. is all this "succubi are hunting the winchester family" stuff a tie-in to something in the show i forgot abt or is this just another wtf moment. he was rambling about water spirits a few pages back, namedropped Jenny Greenteeth AND undead water horses, THAT was fucking weird)

Cemy's Masterpost for TLT Analyses

Analysing things is my love language, so it's clear that I have a whole lot of TLT analyses. I want to collect them in this post, because I have trouble finding them myself. Much fun!

I'm an Ianthe stan

Ianthe and ADHD (my favorite analysis post of mine, I'm serious, it's very me-core)

Corona, Ianthe and the Threat of Killing Oneself

Ianthe is the Underling (she is such a good girl)

Ianthe's the Most Repressed Nun Third I've Ever Seen (Emotionally)

About the Thoughtfulness of Ianthe's Lies

Dying as a Skill Issue (Dying is for suckers, bitch!)

Ianthe apparently knows more than she says

The Unwanted Guest is a Genius Mindfuck (my very first post, click here to meet baby cemetegee)

Ianthe Goes Poetry

Ianthe is not the pure evil, but a very normal person

Ianthe Lore

Could Ianthe see Cytherea's Corpse?

Ianthe Must be Borderline Horny in TUG

Ianthe's Pain "Resistance" is OP

Ianthe's relationship to Corona (not gonna lie, probably neccessary to understand the posts above)

The Tridentarii Power Shift Dynamic

"Corona's Con" | Who's in Charge? (Whooo is in ControOoOl?)

Family Ties (or Third House culture?)

Corona hanged herself in in front of her eyes

The Tridentarii & Lolita

A very smart user said the Tridentarii would maybe only *perform* their Tridentariicest (maybe to disgust everybody from further investigations in their relationship?), and I'm OBSESSED with that take

Ianthe's Relationship to Babs

Ianthe and Babs Were Best Buddies (well at least a bit :(...)

Does Ianthe Regret the Murder of Naberius Tern?

Babs Died for her Plot Armor (that's literally the whole post, you don't have to click on the link)

Coronabeth Tridentarius: An Approach to her Character

Coroniphis & Ianthe (the explanatation for Ianthe's name seems to be more connected to Corona than to her)

What in Hell has she Done to Babs?

Than to Love and be Loved by Ianthe the First, Saint of Awe

Corona is a Very Third Person (Nobody Notices Somehow)

TLT Mechanics

How Could Cytherea Infiltrate Canaan House Without Being Betrayed by a Missing Thanergic Signature

Who/What is Kiriona Gaia? (my poor saddest girl in the whole world :()

How Could Wake Use Cytherea's body? (Necromantic Explanatation)

Why can Cavs and Necros Use Each Other's bodies? | How Could Palamedes Use Babs body? (just some basic theories about necromancy my friendos)

John "Jod" Gaius

Why Didn't Jod Heal Cytherea's Lung Cancer?

Jod is not Obliged to See Gideon as his Dauther, as Hard as it Sounds (Hear me out) (mostly about questioning blood relation as synonym for family in this case, what is also interesting to me in regard to found families)

Strange Pre-Ressurection Behavior Against Mercymorn

John is not the pure evil, but a very normal person

John was Pretty Fucked Up when he Decided to Kill the world (Correction to what I said in the post: he *did* technically kill her. Pulling out the soul of a body is dying by definition)

Hugs for John (I don't agree with his actions (such as for example killing the world) but his live can't be easy since then)

Any Thoughts About the Theological Implications of the character John "Jod" Gaius?

TLT Meta

Determinism in TLT

I Would Like to Talk About the Implications of TLT pls pls 👉👈 (pls ignore how much I sound like a snob in that post lol. I AM NOT, that was just me trying to formulate my wish in English :D)

The characters of TLT aren't the pure evil but very normal people

Blurred Lines

Ever since I watched Trolls Band Together, I had a lot of questions sticking in my brain like gum under the tables or bleachers that can’t be removed. If you ask me, I treat these plotholes like a crime scene investigation or a science experiment in the laboratory. Sorry if there is too much information and scientific facts added to it because I found out that people with ASD like me prefer logic, accuracy, and clarity to guide my judgement because they’re consistent.

With Queen Poppy and Viva, they look semi-identical based on their designs, which makes me see that they’re fraternal or identical twins. Identical twins, are meant to have identical DNA but they differ somewhat in appearance and are not the same in terms of height, physical features, and many more so yeah, that might make sense.

Maybe they were isolated from one another in the troll tree for their safety and Viva remembers Poppy more than her because she would sneak around to be with her. There wasn’t any evidence about who is older and younger but what I know is that Viva wasn’t targeted by Chef, it was Poppy instead. It might be due to Poppy’s status as the heir because I discovered that in a legal system based on primogeniture, which favors the inheritance claims of an eldest child or his or her children over the claims of other relatives, an heir apparent is generally the eldest child, who is entitled to claim the property and titles of his or her parent. While rewatching the first Trolls movie, I noticed that King Peppy, Poppy and the other trolls escaped in the morning of the Last Trollstice so Viva and the others might escaped late at the night when Chef was exiled and there were other Bergens living outside Bergen Town so Viva’s escape might’ve happened at that time. Come to think of it, some trolls are up and running when they hatched out of their eggs like ducks and horse foals (cough* cough* Tiny Diamond) and compared to us humans, troll brains absorb memories and instincts fast or faster like sponges.

Maybe Poppy doesn't remember much about Viva because she kinda looks like she has Autism and ADHD. I read that children with autism have memory challenges that hinder not only their memory for faces but also their ability to remember other kinds of information. That's the same thing I struggled with as well.

I also based this theory on my life experiences because as an eldest child myself, I experienced the things Poppy had been through as I grew older and I am shorter while Viva kinda reminds me of my younger, taller sister.

I also read about sibling psychology and discovered that Poppy has more oldest sibling traits than Viva, who has younger sibling traits. I noticed in the movies and the animated series that Poppy exhibited the traits I listed, but she only has two youngest sibling traits, evidently mischievous and risk taker while Viva has two oldest sibling traits, usually cautious and conscientious. They both share the traits of fun loving and creative so I didn’t add them in my chart.

With the BroZone, it’s obvious to see the details about who is older and younger among them because of the features I noticed. It was evident that John Dory spent his years alone in the wilderness, Spruce established a business and had a family in Vacay Island, and Clay escaped with Viva and the others on the night when Chef was exiled and lived in the abandoned mini golf. Floyd on the other hand, he must’ve wandered around on his own until he was found by Velvet and captured him to fulfill her plan to become a popstar, alongside Veneer.

With Velvet and Veneer, they must’ve ended up that way because the Mount Rageon lifestyle is focused on partying and hedonism that they become victims of neglect and favoritism. Velvet was spoiled rotten by their parents, who were dentists while Veneer was often pushed to the side, causing him to lack willpower and only be a doormat for her when she cooks up schemes. Veneer possibly got Sparkles the goldfish as by the parents to shut him up while they spoil Velvet as if she was a treasure they can cherish and maintain. This had gotten worse possibly if the two experience bullying in school for being talentless.

Whatever my mind was thinking, all I know is that there are blurred lines in there.

TRANSMISSION 14!!!!!!!!

ohhhhhhh my god.

AHLAAM, SIA, AND DAKKAR FORM A DYNAMIC TRIO???? ONE THAT WE WILL LEAN ON HEAVILY FOR EPISODE 4???? I AM SO EXCITED????

hi I already adore all these characters and I can't wait to get to know them better in just three days (holy shit)

Ahlaam —

Traveler proficient in several magical disciplines

okay so we know there's different kinds of magic, even more than just the Radiance and Ahlaam's sick waterbending. I'm guessing that the Radiance could be the primary magic and the other disciplines are more secondary, maybe?

valuable leader, has more fun than all the other islanders combined, quick to help people smile

I am so glad that Ahlaam is the fun Traveler just like I'd been hoping. It also speaks to Matt's character writing skills because we get like 2 minutes with her in TGOA and that was enough to be like "oh she's a silly one" lol <3

also ayyyyyy confirmation that there are more people on Lincoln Island than just these named characters!

guiding hand, glue that holds Lincoln Island together

....I am suddenly afraid that something could happen to Ahlaam. If she's that important to the island and the Bad Guys know it, then she could be a target to try and make everyone vulnerable and weak.

Dakkar —

serious and intense, unmatched fighting spirit

oh my god I hope he's broody. if he's the opposite to Ahlaam then he's gotta be a tortured, brooding guy, right? please? he can fill the Haunted Soldier Man void AJ left behind!

chiseled by his past & anchored by time, always right here while being somewhere else

hi! 😀 what the fuck does this mean? ❤

fr tho are we going to get more time weirdness beyond just traveling through it??? is Dakkar split between time and/or space?? is that an intentional magic thing, or an invention thing, or a curse of some kind? lab accident? is he conscious of different times/places at the same time? when he's with Rose two weeks in the past, is he ALSO with the others in the present, like some sort of Traveler bridge??? is he even a traveler??? it didn't explicitly say he's a traveler???

his magic is critical to the operation & safety of the island

oh okay, so he could also be in serious danger from the Bads. gotcha. goooootcha. welp, I'm fucked, I'm already attached. Matt Dahan has so many ways to hurt me in three days, lmao. I'm lowkey scared. (Bring it on Mr. Dahan, I will make art as revenge for any and all future heartbreak. 🥰)

fiercely protective of those close to him

...Dakkar, buddy, you're not beating the AJ similarities allegations.

oh god if I wasn't already 99% certain that Morgan won't be in this episode then I would be going crazy over thinking about these two interacting. ...might go crazy over it later, just for fun.

has a knack for science and technology

and if I said Anna is hanging out in his cool traveler lab and that's where she and John reunite— /hj

if Dakkar does technology stuff, could he have created the orreries? I've had a theory that Margaret could have made them (my only evidence is the orrery in her apartment and Kal saying it's fitting that he found her while looking for an orrery) so maybe they had developed them together? idk, just a thought

also, if Ahlaam is the Fun One and Dakkar is the Serious One then I can totally see Sia as the common ground between them—more serious than Ahlaam but more lighthearted than Dakkar. and was Margaret once a part of this group? where does she fit in? OH MY GOD WHAT IF SIA TEAMED UP WITH AHLAAM AND DAKKAR AFTER SHE LOST KAL AND MARGARET???? if Kal was the fun one and Margaret was the serious one....... aough please excuse me while I scream internally for a while.

Captain Addison Arvad —

is on Lincoln Island

how????? Sia didn't know what happened to her, how long has she been here????

enthusiastic, knowledgeable, the kind of person that's used to doing ten things at once

adhd multitasking queen captain, I love her

important part of the story that unfolds for our heroes

ahem....

AS THE #1 ADDISON FAN AND THE FIRST PERSON TO MAKE A POST IN HER TAG,

I, PERSONALLY, WIN.

she has a dog, Top, who works just as hard as anyone else on the island

🥺🥺🥺

okay, maybe Addison didn't see her captain's journal as a Wreck This Journal. maybe Top saw it as a chew toy. maybe her dog tried to eat her captain work.

if anything happens to this dog I swear to god... 😭

Searcher is a type of person with their own set of guidelines and rules

fascinated by this bit. what guidelines and rules are these? are they about morals? about how to use their magic, if they have magic at all? is it about how they engage with the world(s) and the people in it? what are the rules and guidelines for Travelers?

feeling very John Herschel in my living room right now (I have so many questions) and have I mentioned I already adore these characters???

anyway, to conclude this ramble:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!

[multifandumbmeg]

Just stopping in to check because I haven't seen anyone mention this on any website but

I mean we're all in agreement that JJ's dyslexic, right? Like the whole "I can't read cursive" thing is not a joke. And it happens multiple times when cursive documents come up.

But Megan, the naysayers are naysaying, doesn't that just mean he can't read cursive? Still sad, but a lot of the letters look different and it's not very useful so maybe he flunked/ignored that unit of third grade.

Nay. Naaaay I have one more piece of evidence. Go back to the episode where they find Big John's compass and open it in season 1. John B says there's a secret compartment and JJ grabs it and says, "Let me see!" When the others ask what it says he struggles to read the single word etched in all CAPS (NO cursive) Redfield. While trying to sound it out, the others cut him off immediately by reading it out loud. They are able to read it at a glance, but JJ isn't.

So there's the compass, the letter from Limbrey where he admits he can't read cursive at all, and then again when they find Tanny's spyglass where he grabs it, sees the inscription, and then hands it to Pope and asks what it says.

Final solid evidence it's dyslexia vs. Not a fluke of writing (consistent pattern) or him being entirely illiterate, is that he DOES read John B's text message, proving he's alive in Nassau, texts Kiara to save him from the ambulance theft disaster, and texts Singh in Barbados with Portis' phone. So he can read, but he can't do it quickly and/or out loud.

Circumstantial bonus evidence - everyone headcanons/believes JJ has ADHD, which he definitely displays a lot of symptoms of, and there's a high comorbidity between ADHD and Dyslexia.

That's all I just wanted to note my theory.

[frogofalltime]

intro post :D

hello there ! (picrew by @reelrollsweat)

name: Binyameen, you can call me any variation of this like Binya or Ben or Meena, or Frog is also cool (because of my username)

pronouns: they/them and he/him

age: 22

languages: i'm fluent in english and french, studying mandarin chinese, and i know basic arabic (but i'm very rusty)

currently watching: supernatural, doctor who, gravity falls, serial experiments lain

currently reading: hell followed with us (andrew joseph white), small bodies of water (nina mingya powles), three daughters of china (jung chang)

about me :D

i identify as a nonbinary trans boy. but tbh gender is complicated so there's probably more to it that that. i'm a student and i want to be a scientist, specifically a herpetologist, when i finish university. i am religious in my own personal way. i'm mixed race (south asian and white), and i grew up in a lot of different places in england and saudi arabia, so it's quite confusing to answer the question of "where are you from". i'm autistic (diagnosed as a kid) and i am (currently procrastinating on) pursuing an adhd diagnosis. i am aroace, and in a queerplatonic relationship.

i am studying ecology because this is one of my biggest special interests. my other special interests are animals (especially frogs and moths), mycology (cool fungi), pokémon, studio ghibli movies, 20th century chinese history, classic literature, dystopian fiction, activism, and natural history.

my hobbies include d&d, photography, mushroom identification, writing my own poetry and stories (i'm working on the third draft of a novel that i wrote last year), learning languages, drawing, sewing, mediaeval swordfighting, playing video games (although i am abysmal at gaming), and reading. oh and scrolling tumblr. and writing unnecessarily long posts. a lot of that.

my favourite colour is green, my favourite song is dog days are over by florence and the machine, my favourite animal is the vietnamese mossy frog, my favourite movie is when marnie was there, my favourite show is anne with an e, and my favourite book is station eleven by emily st john mandel.

my current hyperfixations are serial experiments lain, evolution (the scientific theory), spiderverse, frankenstein, percy jackson, supernatural, howl's moving castle, good omens, and hell followed with us. you can definitely tell how obsessed i am with all these things just from scrolling through my blog.

please send me dms or asks, i love making friends :D

i could write a million more things but i will stop there because this is more than enough. sorry for the Essay. this is what all my posts end up like tbh. you have been warned.

[anachronous-cetacea]

A theory:

While reading John Calhoun's papers（I had first read them 7 years ago but didn't quite understand）and his biography, a thought suddenly hit me:

COULD HE BE ON THE AUTISM SPECTRUM ？

I'm not kidding. I am ASD + ADHD so I did a lot of research myself, and JCC just fit in many of the symptoms.

So I wrote a short article discussing this possibility, but it's in Chinese and I suck at English so if anyone wants to see it I'll try my best translating it……

[devilmademewriteit]

meet the freak (point and laugh)

hi everyone I’m being a grown up and setting my blog up for realz so here’s a meet the author typa beat thing

who I am

A 21 year old French-Canadian Sagittarius, baby! queer, ashkenazi, doing an English major, hopefully a future lawyer. Big feminist (despite what my writing might consist of LOL). I write songs, too! I got adhd and ocd and love to talk about them so hit the inbox if you ever want to chat about that xx

I started writing music and fiction at ten. I’m on tumblr to share my depraved ideas and to practice my authorial skills:-)

what I like

Lana motherfucking Del Rey, Stevie Nicks, SZA, Lucy Dacus, Rihanna, Heart, shirts that show off my rack. Margaret Lawrence and Margaret Atwood and a lot of gender theory. Drunk Dancing. I’m a big fan of moral philosophy (John Stuart Mill and Krenshaw are my favs) and ecocriticism — I’m writing my honours thesis on indigenous ways of knowing, particularly in connection with anti-humanist narratives centering non-human species (I love magpies and mother trees). Canadian humour and Canadian wildlife. Oh — I also love a good em-dash. DILFS.

Favourite movies: Pride & Prejudice (with Kiera, the best of the best), the Shawshank Redemption, Hairspray, Waiting for Guffman, Les Intouchables, Avatar I and II, Revenge of the Sith and Return of the Jedi, the original Halloween and Scream, and The First Avenger.

Favourite Shows: Supernatural, Parks N Rec, Narcos & The Last of Us, the Boys, Arrested Development, Call My Agent, Rupaul’s Drag Race, and so many more I lose track.

what I don’t like

Real person fic, slow talkers, capitalism, and Leonardo Dicaprio. Militarism, imperialism, and colonialism. Rhubarb. Friends (the show) and Heidegger. TERFs (all transphobes, really), and artists who don’t reblog other artist’s work. HUMANISM. Men who take credit for women’s ideas. The gender binary. Honestly, I could go on forever. Feel free to give me ideas.

what I write

For now, dark fic involving Pedro characters & dark fic about Soldier Boy from the Boys. Might be more later on, but that’s it for now.

what I won’t write

Overly specific requests (it’s always going to be reader insert so don’t ask me to use your name or defining characteristics), anything related to feet or bodily fluids beyond cum LOL, real person fic (yes, that includes Pedro, he is a person), and fandom cross-overs.

Generally, I’m slow on requests — this isn’t because I don’t like or won’t write your kind of request, it’s just because I’m a gal who works 2 jobs and has a full course load, and I have a lot of my own fics in the works.

what you can send me in my inbox

Any and all thoughts (but please don’t trauma dump or send me hate lol). Suggestions, requests, accolades, song requests, questions you may have about myself or about my interests! Feel free to leave fic recs in there, too.

I’m a sensitive gal so if my work revolts or triggers you, please just block me and move along. I have so many warnings about my content — please heed them and protect yourself.

I’ll probably add more to this later on, but that’s all I can think of for now.

Kisses,

-em<3

[goodstuffexe]

So,

I did the baffling discovery today that the beginning of this song

And the FUCKING LEITMOTIV OF HTTYD and HICCUP as can be heard at the beginning in

and better in

ARE NOT THE SAME.

But how? Why the fuck would a fan of over 10 years say that those are the same frikkin melody?

I DON'T KNOW. Don't ask me, my brain did an oopsie and I can't get over it.

My friends and I just discovered this while guessing film scores and ofc I recognised the score of Httyd immediately, but then my friend played a song from Ice Age and even if I've watched this film as a child, I don't remember anything from it besides maybe some scenes I've seen of the baby (yikes old animation haha). So I ONLY knew Goodnight Sweet Possums from watching Reels and TikToks (it's rly all over the place, but I can understand it's a fucking beautiful song) and SOMEHOW

I NEVER looked at the name of the audio when I heard it AND just assumed that it was a cover of the score of Httyd, because it sounded (and still does wtf) so similar to me.

And I especially never connected it to Ice Age of all things, where the damn thing is from.

Now I've gone over the notes and I think it's the first 3 that set my mind up for the leitmotiv and therefore get mixed up and guess what? Not even those are the same.

To the left is Goodnight Sweet Possums and to the right The Vikings Have Their Tea and you see that the melody of the first 3 ascending tones is not the same, similar? Sure, but not the same, not to mention that the song goes in another direction after this.

I've compared the two more closely and tho Goodnight Sweet Possums definitely has a different melody, especially after those 5 notes, and is faster, the two are still quite similar by first ascending and then descending, but at different times and have other/longer 'pauses' (PLS don't come at me for this explanation lol I have limited knowledge of music theory, am not playing an instrument atm and just tried to compare the two by the looks heh)

SO

Am I stupid for not considering that this, in the second half totally not like Httyd sounding song, (rly it's just the beginning thanks to TikToks short clips) could indeed NOT be a cover? And that I thought I heard snippets of the Httyd score in other musical pieces, because I listen to it weekly, where really none are, happened before?

Perhaps.

Was my world view shattered like the time I discovered musical songs (not all ofc) where in fact not original and I've been humming a melody that has been all over my feed for months and has nothing to do with Httyd?

Yes, yes it was.

But the song is still damn good wow

Anyways,

is this enough proof that I have adhd now?

ALSO THE TWO SCORES ARE FROM THE SAME COMPOSER JOHN POWELL YOU LITTLE-

Pls does somebody hear the similarities too I'm going mad over this

[thermodynamic-comedian]

harrowhark or john for the character bingo?

YES....YES!!!!

harrow

john

elaboration under the cut!!!! im so insane about these two....

disordered eating: harrow canonically does not enjoy food, seeing eating as more of a necessity than a pleasure. john also mentioned not eating enough to the point where his friends expressed concern about it before the resurrection. both of them have arfid in my mind.

weird about identity: inherent to being a lyctor of any kind. like who even are you lol

weird relationship with reality: hallucinations. delusions. the thin line between what you think is happening and what's actually happening.

ocd/adhd: im projecting. lol

body horror: again, inherent to being a necromancer in general. the story of how alecto's body was created. bones. flesh. all that

oddly specific headcanon(s): harrow carves mantras and secret messages onto bones. john used to be a big tv girl fan.

will wood lyrics: for harrow, especially outliars and hyppocrates. for john, especially hand me my shovel, i'm going in! and the song with five names.

has read theory: he has a phd. he cared so much about the enviroment. at some point, he must've picked up one or two of marx and engels' works.

Not Gonna Let Down The Title Line

you know I think the dumbass CAN be taught.

xXdaggerQuillXx is not only on-point for an edgelord 15/16 year old given access to mass media, but its also on-point for early 2000s-era forum usernames. I have a theory that someone in the writer's room was either daggerQuill or had a similar name, and this line was meant to dunk on them.

ROAST HIS ASS, MOSES.

oh, ADHD-ass eager beaver.

Moses is also not paid enough to put up with this.

I paused on just the right frame to get a face full of squirrel twerking. I need to sit down a moment.

ok but their relationship is kind of cute, too.

Sam I'm gonna need you to calm tf down, you're causing tonal whiplash with the soundtrack.

in other words, John is gonna crush them.

I don't see how having Henri be sheepdog is going to make the wagon move any faster but then again he's probably an absolute demon if given direction and encouragement.

The ewe just magically transformed into a ram. These guys are Pure Gender energy no wonder Henri has such sway over them.

Duane this is not a good look.

This guy is really not thrilled he has a babysit a teenager with poor impulse control.

oh my god I love his energy. I love this man. Spirit animal fr.

Henri and the sheepdog are the two braincells keeping this train together.

Sarah has such a girlcrush on Abigail Adams I bet she was giggling and twirling her hair.

Sarah honey, the Frillips polycule is near critical mass, you don't need to introduce more empowered and intelligent women into it.

her footman/driver lookin' kinna cute, do you think they had a thing for blondes at DIC.

Gage: Hey so uh, how should I be treating Boston when I get there? Like do we have an idea of what we want or...

Lord North's Parliament: fuckin I dunno do what you want?

...were they told to give that sheep a butthole, or was this a fed up artist sneaking things into frame.

Henri's the real brains of this outfit istg

Whaaaat the delegation from the Quaker colony in the Quaker city would vote for moderation? But the Society of Friends has such a reputation for spiciness!

James wants to see a fistfight on the floor and so do we

[chaifootsteps]

Yup. REN and Stimpy anon is right. Did you know that John K blamed his sh*tty behaviour on his mental health and ADHD for sympathy? Just like another person we know. Vivzie is definitely J K mark 2.

Tinfoil hat theory: Vivzie's the reincarnation of John K. I know John K.'s still alive but he found a way.

[rainbowbookcasesandlargemugs]

Okay I know this one!!!!

Short summary:

The human brain has a reward system run by dopamine. When you do a thing like eating or sleeping or having sex, your reward system goes fuck yeah! Have some dopamine! Do that again! It's what programs you to do all the things that keep humans humaning.

Some substances and behaviours override the natural state of your reward system and give you a a huge rush of dopamine. So your body goes fuck yeah! Do that again! The survival system thought that was AWESOME.

If you keep doing that substance or behaviour, your brain starts thinking that's how much dopamine it's supposed to get from things, and if you stop doing it it thinks you've stopped performing a necessary human behaviour, and freaks the fuck out. If you do the substance or behaviour enough, or if its a particular type of substance, your brain can also lose some neurochemical receptors because it's so used to the substance providing that thing, and if you stop doing it there are more serious consequences (eg. Alcohol)

That's what addiction is. It's not some classist or ableist invention by doctors to stop you from getting your adhd meds (NOTE: IT CAN BE USED BY SOME DOCTORS FOR THIS PURPOSE BUT IS IN A VACUUM A NEUTRAL BIOLOGICAL STATE). ADHD meds are usually powerful stimulants that stimulate the reward part of your brain, and so absolutely fuck with this reward system.

The difference is just that people with ADHD don't have an effective reward system. We forget to eat, and sleep, or we overeat and oversleep, and hypersexuality is a common symptom. We take ADHD medication to regulate our reward systems, but not enough is understood about ADHD to safely say that it 100% protects you from the addicting effects, because that's straight up just a physiological process that's happening, and ADHD isn't so straight forward. There's a theory it's due to dopamine receptivity issues but we really don't know that much!

So guys, please. Yes, actually, you are functionally addicted to drinking water, and eating, and sleeping. That's the whole point of the system that facilitates addiction. And ADHD medication IS a dangerous and powerful drug when misprescribed or misused, and your doctor has a duty to inform you of these risks.

(This is Also the reason why pain medication is so tightly controlled. Opioids also target the reward system. But that is another rant for another day lmfao)
