Caregiving while neurodivergent?

I've been looking into support resources or any information I might be able to pass on to a caregiver loved one who themself is neurodiverse (ADHD, possibly AuDHD)

They're the sole caretaker of their elderly parents w/ intensive healthcare needs while also having been a single parent for 18+ years themself, and that's a lot to do without much support. Especially with a late diagnosis and either neurodivergent or firmly repressed family.

They don't let it show but I know my ADHD makes compassion fatigue hit way harder (plus typical ADHD burnout) so I can't imagine having to also be a full-time caregiver.

I'm rambling but basically I can't find shit online since popular society & healthcare professionals haven't truly accepted that neurodiverse adults with stereotypically "neurotypical" responsibilities exist. Or that neurodiverse adults even exist full stop.

So, this is a full plea asking if anyone has reliable information (websites, videos, podcasts); free/inexpensive resources; or their own tips, experiences, and advice!

ideas for helpful gifts & supplies are also welcome (tis the holiday season)

TL;DR I want to help a family caregiver who is neurodivergent, but I can't find any resources or info! Help???

(even if you don't have anything, reblogs are adored and appreciated and loved pls!!!)

(you're also welcome to bemoan this problem w me it's engagement & solidarity)

Umbrellas uwu

I tried to reply to some people who were all "uwu getting umbrellas after 5 years shows that Houses >>> Engage uwu" but the main sub is... well, still the main sub.

I thought there was some rule some time ago that sort of banned the "engage shit fodlan good" posts? Maybe it doesn't extent to comments ?

Anyways, I stand by what I earlier said, I'm perfectly happy waiting 24-26 days to get an artbook with interviews and special illustrations than to get an umbrella or towels. Because, hey, when I played the game, I enjoyed its worldbuilding and characters and I would like to get more of that, and not, y'know, an umbrella.

I mean, I could buy a jigglypuff umbrella, but for a jrpg/srpg/trpg/whatever FE is, when I want to buy goodies, I want to buy stuff relating/related to the game and not, just, a spoon where the word "judgral" is engraved.

At this point I'm starting to believe Fodlan became a brand : you like the concept of "Fodlan" but don't like a particular character, or the setting, or the world, or anything else.

there is a word for this you know. it's called dyspraxia or developmental coordination disorder. it's generally comorbid with adhd and autism.

the fact that so many people with adhd/autism don't know about this disorder, yet show symptoms of it and struggle with various activities as a result is so shocking to me. there needs to be more awareness and information spread about it.

Hello neurodivergent people. I was wondering if I'm just weird or it is common to not being able to learn certain motoric skills at the same time as my peers and learned them MUCH later

ok for rn i am going to try and get some art done and finish this crappy audio book.

[transformativeworks]

Are you getting that annoying "Buy Art from Me" spam on your AO3? Here is what to do

First - if you are a real non-spam person asking folks to commission art by commenting on their fics on AO3.. please do not do that. That is a violation of the TOS.

Second - We are working on filtering it out, and you can help! Below the cut is info on identifying the spam comments, and then how to report them in the most effective way!

So we can stop this flood of spam.

<3 Mod Remi

(Details from PAC are below the Read More)

How to identify it - 1. Comments are left by registered accounts 2. Usually, the comments are on works that have just been posted or updated 3. The comment may provide very specific compliments about the work, and if challenged, the commenter will firmly deny being a bot or scammer 4. The key identifier is that in the comment itself, or in a follow-up to any reply to the comment, the spammer will always do at least one of these two things: - Offer to create art for the work, or say that they are an artist interested in working with you - Ask if they can speak with you on another platform (they may provide their own contact details for other platforms, such as Discord, Artstation, or Instagram)

THE BEST WAY TO REPORT IT 1. Select the 'Thread' button on the comment so that you're viewing the comment's direct page 2. Scroll to the bottom and select the "Policy Questions & Abuse Reports" link 3. In the "Brief summary" field, put "spam comment" 4. In the "Description" field, put "This is a spambot" and then "The account name is [whatever account name]" – this will ensure it gets sorted correctly - Please only include 1 account in your report – if you see another, then please file a new report - Please don't re-report accounts you've already reported

What AO3 is doing about this - 1. We're implementing several measures to try and stop these spammers from making new accounts, but unfortunately, some are going to slip through our fingers 2. Fortunately, it is very easy for us to get rid of this type of spam and prevent the account from posting more – so long as it is reported to us in the correct fashion. If our auto-sorter detects the keywords in your report that will file it into our "suspected spam" folder, then it's easy for our volunteers to quickly check and handle it

Sometimes I feel like some things are about me like u usually never tell me youll reply later esp after idk 8pm. So why now? So random. Usually you just roll over, next day, next moin, new chance to reply or not. Most often not anyway unless i repeat.

But again ppl tend to think in ego centric ways and it may just be conceited of me and unreflected to think things r about me at all.

Revisiting 123 TMAGP (CAT#) Theory

Spoilers for up to episode 16 of TMAGP.

It's been a couple of weeks since I first put together this theory for myself and I wanted to add on some thoughts. Spoilers below the cut!

Here is my updated spreadsheet:

I still feel like 1 / 2 / 3 definitely act as a categorical grouping which are not mutually exclusive, with the general theme of who / where / what respectively. But there is a bit of an inconsistency in which statements receive what categorical assignment.

To clarify categories as I interpret them:

"Who" in my mind defines an avatar, or a person who somehow has super natural abilities that are innate (and not a result of a "where" or a "what").

"Where" defines a location that either causes paranormal events, or attributes supernatural qualities to the people inhabiting that space (Pennine Tower, the garden in Infection). Looking back, this one is the one I'm a bit skeptical of now. Namely because there are two statements that I feel like still don't quite make much sense based on my personal interpretation of what a "where" is. I'll get into that in a moment.

"What" is a thing (physical, or something that you can interact with) that has supernatural traits. Saw somebody say that tattoos are hardly a thing and I disagree. It's on your skin. You can touch it, interact with it, right? Same thing with apps. I digress.

Now to talk about the inconsistencies.

Ink5oul: Episodes I'm referencing are 2, 11, and 16.

For a while, I had a theory that Ink was not an avatar and instead had a tattoo machine that was supernatural (maybe Oscar Jarrett, referenced by Ink in episode 11, has a tattoo machine that they now use or something). This would explain why they could be referenced in (and sometimes the direct cause of the events in the episode) without being considered a paranormal being. We also need to consider how their tattoos include alchemical symbols, which are clearly important in this universe. This aligns with the classifications we saw in relevant episodes.

Then we got episode 16, and now I'm a bit confused to be honest lol, because it's classified as a 1. Based on my theory that the tattoos were supernatural and were therefore classified as "3s," I'm a bit mystified by this one. So here are some explanations I have thought of (though I am sure there are other reasons):

Ink only "triggered" the classification because they were physically present. When comparing it to episode 2, they were not physically present when Daria started to change her appearance, and in episode 11, they played no (supernatural) role in the events that occurred.

Ink has become an actual avatar since the events that transpired in episode 2. There is enough of a time frame where this could have happened, and the timeline kind of makes sense? Episode 11, they obsess over the ocean tattoo and maybe they discover something about it — with alchemical symbols, a tool, I don't know — that causes them to begin their practice. Episode 2 they give a tattoo to Daria, and they're still not quite an avatar, but the tattoos sure as hell are supernatural (because of the alchemical symbols? an evil magic tattoo machine? i dunno). At this point, they would still be new at it, and this makes sense because Daria says, "They’re pretty popular these days," which implies that it's a recent thing. And now, by episode 16, they themself are an avatar.

Regardless, assuming ink is an avatar (and they don't carry a supernatural item such as the bone dice and viol-ence), I would still expect this episode to be classified as a 13 based on previous statements to account for the tattoo.

Inconsistent 2s: Episodes I'm referencing are 7 and 11 (again lol)

There are two statements that are classified with CAT#2 that I am uncertain about. I'll start with episode 7 — Hilltop Center.

I'll be honest, I definitely saw the name Hilltop and immediately made connections with TMA, and thought "it must be relevant." And when I first started to see the commonalities between statements and the three classifications, it technically fit right in – it's a place, isn't it, and a canonically significant one at that. But I feel like I may have gotten ahead of myself with the excitement from the reference. This is a different reality from TMA. The Institute is in Manchester now, why would the same qualities exist in Hilltop in this universe?

Now, while it is possible that Hilltop caused the events that occurred in episode 7, when you think about the content of the episode itself, it has more to do with "who" rather than "where." It starts with one person who is strange and uncanny who ends up bringing more and more of their "friends" who want to "help." This "person" seemed to have originated outside of this place. And the statement giver (aside from being, yknow, traumatised probably), is not affected / changed by any "supernatural" quality of the Center. So why is this episode classified as CAT#2??? I don't know.

For episode 11, I'm a little uncertain to how place is immediately relevant. 3 makes total sense — it's a weird creepy tattoo. But I feel like 2 is not immediately clear as to why it is important in this episode, but wait, okay now that I'm writing this sentence, episode 15 is started to give us a bit more to work with actually–

Okay NEVERMIND. New theory. Episode 11 being classified as CAT#23 makes total sense. The cemetery is located in Padstow, and is a place where lots of sailors were buried. In episode 15, Luke orders a beer called "Doom Bar," also from Padstow, named after the Doom Bar sandbank. On their site they wrote: "The sandbank is revered as a formidable nautical challenge that should be approached with respect and navigated with skill." So I guess, what I'm trying to say, is maybe this sandbank, this part of the coast, is supernatural in nature. But it's just not immediately clear why it's classified in that way and why it's included in this episode's classification number — we just always need more information.

Snakes: Episode I'm referencing is 14

Is the guy that vomits the snakes everywhere an avatar? Like, I'm not really sure. And the statement giver too, says she feels her throat get all weird. I guess maybe it's an infection? But does that count as a who or a what? I'm not sure.

Theories:

Finally, this brings me to the issue of how the hell these statements are categorized in the first place. Because we have inconsistencies. How can Transformation (full) -/- dysmorphic result in a CAT#3 and Transformation (snakes) -/- horde result in a CAT#1? "Dysmorphic" and "horde" are the cross reference so I feel like we can rule those out. "Full" and "snakes" are the subsections of transformation. So how do those two words result in different CAT#s?

So my current theory which is definitely a cop-out, hand wavey one because I have NO IDEA is that I feel like the tables and binder and cross reference stuff must, in some way, be supernatural because there's no way somebody created a system this...well, flexible? It would need to be constantly updating to accommodate new language (such as "influencer" since that is of the Internet Instagram Era), and seeing as FR3-D1 is an old ass system and the two seem closely related, I feel like the classification system can't be Normal.

Conclusion: I think the 1 / 2 / 3 - who / where / what (or any variation of it) has a lot of merit, I just think that, like all things in Protocol, there is more nuance than we can see at the moment. We just need to know more.

123 TMAGP (CAT#) Theory

So I haven't seen my theory about how the CAT# works on here so I'm not sure if anybody else has noticed this but I figured I should share! I'm pretty sure that whether a statement is labelled 1-2-3 defines what kind of content is paranormal in the episode.

EDIT: Spoilers below the cut

Here's my spreadsheet ordered by CAT# ("code" in the last column):

I noticed that when I put the statements in order of "code", the main focus of each episode had something in common. Looking at statements coded "1" I noticed that they all had to do with a person. Episode 6 -- Needles, Episode 10 and 12 -- Bonzo, and episode 1 "reanimation" was the zombie guy. Okay, so statements labelled with a 1 seem to have something to do with people.

Next set, the 2s. Episode 5 -- the cinema. Episode 7 -- Hilltop Centre. Episode 8 -- Pennine Tower. These episodes all have to do with place that are paranormal by nature.

Finally, the 3s: episode 2 -- a tattoo. Episode 4 -- the slaughter violin. Episode 9 -- bone dice. Episode 13 -- the app. These episodes all have an "artefact" of some kind, whether that be a physical object or something literally tattooed into someone's body, that doesn't seem to matter. It's some kind of thing or object.

Of course, as we've noticed, CAT#s have appeared as 1 / 2 / 3, but also as groups of numbers, such as 23 in episodes 1 and 11, and on the Klaus spreadsheet as 12 and 13. This indicates that statements with multiple types of paranormal presences can have multiple IDs. In the case of episode 1 "transformation," the Magnus Institute is the paranormal place, and the box might be the object. In episode 11, the graveyard and the tattoo are the two major appearances.

Here's my spreadsheet with who / where / what

I just thought it was cool! And the episodes seem to align with my theory the majority of the time (the only one i'm mildy uncertain about is episode 3, because that implies that the reason the guy turned into a tree was because of the place but it's been a while since i listened to that episode so maybe it makes sense lol).

large zionist blocklist below

i've compiled a list of all the blogs positively interacting with the @/israel-palestine-bingo blog

there's more info about how the names were complied under the read more, but just to get an idea of how vile the blog is, i just want to quickly mention that the first prize offered in their pinned post, "eight hours of memi mamtera," is the song used in the viral israeli tiktok trend of kidnapping, humiliating, and torturing palestinians in the west bank.

and the "grand prize," which needs no explanation, is "all of palestine! for free!"

some quick info: all the names here have either approvingly replied to, reblogged from, or liked one or more of @/israel-palestine-bingo's posts. for likes, i've only gathered names that appear under their original posts; mostly ones that have not been reblogged, and some with 2-3 reblogs that have not left the immediate sphere of zionists. i've also made sure that these are blogs who have either liked more than one posts from them, or who frequently reblogs from other zionists.

you can also quickly look through the blog yourself (it doesn't have that many posts), or check out any of the names on the list with a quick 'israel' or 'palestine' in the search bar or their blogs.

there are more screenshots at the end of the posts, including ones showing who made the blog (ani-lo-daredevil / katenotbishop), and the bingo board itself (ashenpumpkin).

blocking tip: fastest way to mass block users (on desktop) is to go to settings -> the blog your blocking them from -> scroll all the way down to 'blocked tumblrs,' and then copy-paste the name your blocking

You can watch many shows for free on YouTube, and watch others on the streaming websites by setting VPN to one of the countries in the list. In other cases I recommend paying for subscriptions to show appreciation and support of content in order to get more of it in the future, but if you can’t, watch on KissKH (better quality), Dramacool or get files from MkvDrama. Enjoy!  🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

By the way, @staff is changing the video player and photo viewer on the mobile app to the one from Tumblr TV. As a result, they have made the abhorrent decision to remove an important accessibility feature in order to TikTok-ifying Tumblr. You can no longer zoom in on photos. Or so I thought. Because the visually impaired are now second-class users to the Tumblr Staff, they just decided to make it harder to zoom in on photos.

So, for all of you who, like me, find the pinch-to-zoom feature on Tumblr invaluable to read and view photos, you now have to:

Tap the Photo > Tap the “more” button in the description > tap the photo again

This will open the old photo viewer (for now, anyway) which was formerly one tap away. It will grant you all the former features of the old photo viewer, including the ability to zoom in.

EDIT: if you’re seeing this on your For You Dash or some other non-reblogged method you will see this edit. Before reblogging and commenting on this, there is addition information in the replies. I have replies disabled, so I am the only person who can add them. I’ve added addition info, as well as an update. Please read them. TLDR: many others, and myself, are now seeing it’s fixed. Many others are not. It may be a roll-out fix from the back-end. Be patient and wait to see if it’ll make its way to you.
