#adhd moment right there

[eluminium]

the ADHD brain is a contradiction beyond our understanding sometimes

like it sees sorting digital papers for school work as boring and non-stimulating and cringe

but sorting digital papers: vidja gaeme edition??? HYPERFIXATION. HOURS OF ENTERTAINMENT. SO VERY MENTALLY STIMULATED.

IT'S THE SAME FUCKING ACTIVITY!!!!

anyways, paper please am i right lads

alrighty i’m not the kind of person to tell you what kinda show/videos you should watch, however today i make an exception, with this vidoe

it’s a 90 minute documentary created by one i my favourite channels on youtube, Defunctland.

And it follows the almost 6 months research deep dive into discovering who created the disney channel theme, you know the

duh duh duh duh

yeahhhhh that one! (you got it)

the story is amazing and it does a great job shinning a light on incredible work of bumper and commercial artist/musicians who’s incredible work often go unnoticed.

know i don’t want to want to spoil much of the story

but if you like learning, have adhd and or autism and have goblin brain for useless information, wanna just learn some really cool behind the scenes info on our collective childhood experiences, wanna gain a new hyperfixation, wanna go into the music world or you just need something to watch then please please watch this video

TLDR: watch video cause i say so … please i promise you won’t regret it … and if you do then just yell at me through my asks

The moment my therapist finally, and fully understood that I’m autistic was halfway into me explaining myself experimenting on my own brain chemistry after reading a report that people with ADHD get dopamine hits from sweet things that can combat some of the ADHD bs, buying a large container of Nutella, and eating a spoonful every afternoon to see if I could overcome the executive dysfunction for several months, then going without to see if there was a difference.

Chat I'm going to be completely transparent with you all. I'm tired. I attempted to go through the messages, but after some unforseen drama that I got roped into, I don't have the energy to focus on the askbox right now.

That and no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to focus on anything to save my life right now. I do have adhd (wahoo) and I'm just so flighty right now it's incredibly difficult to just sit myself down and do the inbox. :'))

Kaeya visits the Dawn Winery... a lot.

He has multiple reasons and excuses that change every time he is greeted by Adelinde.

An investigation on the Darknight hero.

A mission he received from Jean.

A short detour from his patrols.

One time, all he did was ask for a glass of wine before he went his merry way.

Another, he spent a bit more time within the building, creating jam with Adelinde.

Diluc occasionally catches the man approaching the winery from a distance. If he was lucky enough to evade Kaeya's attention, he would send Adelinde to talk to the cavalry captain in his stead. As for the other times, Kaeya would glance up to meet his eyes from where the cavalry captain was standing by the entrance - thru his tinted windows somehow. The younger man's eyes would be glinting mischievously, his ever-present smirk slowly growing on his face.

"Gotcha," his face seemed to imply.

Diluc simply huffs in frustration before leaving his room to spend a couple of moments bantering with the other.

Diluc knows how frequent Kaeya's visits were. He fully expects at least 2 visits in a week...

...The idea that Kaeya frequently visits but never stays... leaves a bitter taste in Diluc's mouth.

Kaeya himself had said that Dawn Winery was his home. If he thought so, why was he always doling out excuses just to be here?

Doesn't Kaeya know he is welcome any time?

Does Kaeya know he could stay?

.

.

.

Like clockwork, Kaeya visits the Dawn Winery.

This time, Kaeya manages to meet his eyes- thru the tinted windows somehow.

Diluc huffs, leaves his room, and meets the other by the entrance.

Kaeya tries to give an excuse for his visit.

Diluc interrupts by saying "you don't need a reason to come home".

.

.

.

'Gotcha' Diluc thinks. He feels as if he won something upon being met by Kaeya's stunned face and hearing Adelinde's giggles at the background.

never ever ever ever EVER getting over the subtle hints about Them that we got so immediately. never.

first Taramyn specifically asking Cinta "what's she doing?" when Vel shows up with some stranger

and then this beautiful focus shift with them both in the frame that i just screamed out loud about again even though i have watched this episode 4000 times

INSANE SHIT TO ME

[precious-little-bhaalbabe]

There’s an undiagnosed and unsupported neurodivergent feeling in playing a good resist durge who fesses up about Alfira and then you finally talk to your companions about your Urge they give various flavors of “well… just control it”

“I have this thing I can’t control in my head that makes life miserable for myself and those around me”

“Well just try harder to control it. Everyone has issues”

I'm sorry but Saint saying "She escaped" after watching Sundaresh fucking float down the vex milk lazy river made me yell at my monitor. The fuck do you MEAN "escaped"? You and Ikora somehow didn't vaporize her with your supers, and then we stood there like chumps as she pulled an Ophelia while monologuing!!! Somebody could've used Strand and yoinked her outta there!!! What are we doing!!!!!

Every appearance of the red-haired menace that is early Laurence forces me to sit here and stew upon how I will fix his introduction in the rewrite. As a coping mechanism. Unfortunately since I can't remember the parts where his character isn't just harassment so I can't cook with the themes the way I'd like to. Like the way he calls Aph "my love" after she very explicitly in the text of the game tells him not to do that... bad vibes. I think I could rock with his character if he'd done the same sort of approach in hitting on Aphmau as heavily, but the moment she lays down an actual boundary, he backs way the hell off. I could even fuck with her trying to be subtle about the boundary and him not getting it and continuing to make her uncomfortable before she snaps at him and he apologizes, saying that he truly didn't mean anything by it, and he respects the boundary she lays like his life depends on it from then on out. It would create some immediate complexity in his need for explicit communication, and backs up the sort of deeper character hinting they seem to try to do when he's talking about Castor and Cadenza, this idea that he deeply cares, if being a bit pushy on accident. It would also make a good detail fueling the conflicts later on with the love triangle that can sort of prevent Laurence from looking like TOO much of a dickhead (him being unaware or misinterpreting situations, and the delicate nature of it making him uncomfortable asking questions, is a compelling reason to see somebody hurting his friends' feelings, and makes him significantly more sympathetic, opening him up for feelings of remorse and guilt).

EMPATHY GLAMORIZATION IS NOT ABOUT EMPATHY BUT SUPERIORITY TORWARDS APATHETIC PEOPLE BIGOTRY TORWARDS THEM TYPICAL BIGOT EVIL. SIMPLE AS THAT. IF YOU SEE THEM AS LEFTIST YOU'RE NO LEFTIST YOURSELF. HORRIBLE. THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE ONLY EMPATHY AND BAD TO THINK EVERYTHING YOU DO IS SUCH ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'RE CLEARLY BEING APATHETIC IF ANYTHING WHEN THEY DO THIS...

COMES TO SHOW BIGOTRY TORWARDS CRAZY AND DISABLED PEOPLE ASWELL AS PARAPHILIA PEOPLE ISN'T TAKEN AT ALL THE SAME AS SEXISM RACISM AND QUEERPHOBIA... OR PERHAPS... LIKELY... THEY ARE ALL THE BIGOTED THINGS EVIL AND TAKE NONE THAT SERIOUSLY... BELITTLING DOWN THEIR PAIN AND DAMAGE...

doug eiffel is the perfect storm of technical competence and chronic procrastination. like, jokes aside, he actually is something of a handyman - he's got a very technical job (and he's good at it!), he makes his own walkie-talkies out of spare parts, he knows how to take stuff apart and put it back together - he's a hands-on kinda guy, and he likes doing that, when it isn't work. in the same way that eiffel could do station maintenance, but he doesn't because it's his job and he doesn't want to, eiffel could do repairs around the house. if he were any less capable, maybe he'd hire someone, but he knows he can do it, and he's not going to pay someone to fix something he can fix himself. but he also doesn't want to do it, because it's a task he has to do. which means no one is doing it, and whenever it comes up he says he's going to do it, and maybe he throws together some makeshift half-repairs to keep it from breaking entirely. he just doesn't actually get around to it.

so today i forget the word palaeontologist, and instead said dino grave robber

i mean my friend got the point but still

[gobbluthbutagirl]

that post going around asking what people would do if they won the lottery has totally bummed me out because mine is literally like, “i’d rent an apartment in los angeles that has wood floors and an oven and isn’t a shithole…” which is already like too embarrassing to even say in the tags of the post in front of god and the op and everybody, but then it’s, “…and then maybe go to college,” so it’s like, ok, well now i just have to sit with that thought, uncomfortably, forever

[gumpistol]

i've been meaning to post something like this for a while, but i find when i get stuck on certain inbox prompts or threads, it helps when i can go to people and ask what the intention/idea of a prompt was or to just chat if i'm stuck on a reply. so with that, can you please give this a like if you're okay with me coming to your DMs if i get stumped on replying to something?

[melon-flowers]

Woah, guys, did you know when you like, take a shower, and take care of your hygiene and shit, it’s actually really helps your mood?!

[sporesgalaxy]

regardless of what I may or may not be able to find supported by research in scholarly journals, it does feel a bit tragic seeing how inconsistent many people's definitions of hyperfixation are, from both the blogs/articles I looked at and some of the tags I've seen here. Mostly just because it's the kind of thing I feel I've experienced often in my efforts to research and understand my ADHD; conflicting accounts, vagueness, inconsistency!! It's been said a millilion times before but the inaccessability of reliable, well-supported, primary source information in situations like this is sooo exhausting and upsetting.
