Late to the party, but I feel this one particularly hard. At least as an adult now there’s some solace in being able to buy the things that I always wanted as a smol child but never got

That might be more of a circle than a venn diagram some days 😅
Aaa my app was weird and said I had no comments all day, despite seeing them all in my inbox 😭
I’m glad to see them all now though!

Canada@lemmy.ca•Federal budget promises legislation to accelerate Alto high-speed rail projectEnglish
3·21 days agoGood point, though it feels like there’s already uncertainty being stoked in the media questioning how much longer this government will last in power. I don’t think that was even the case under Trudeau when he got his last minority government with much fewer seats than Carney.
Suffice to say, I really want to see some ground breaking on the project but I won’t hold high hopes until we get to that point.
Yeah, I feel this so hard. I only got diagnosed with ADHD in my mid 20s and now just starting the process of getting assessed for Autism.
It’s been a rough childhood with my family taking the route of learning through negative reinforcement, which did not feel consistent and sometimes the punishment was sometimes spaced far enough in time from when I did a bad thing that I didn’t know what I was being punished for sometimes. It also didn’t help that I got bullied a lot in school if I’m just not left alone, sometimes even initiated by staff too (not the teachers).
I’ve only found my childhood psychologist report recently that I was recommended to get tested for a condition that has long since been rolled into the autism spectrum.
The funny thing is my family didn’t want me to “catch” autism so I never got assessed.
Now I get to maybe be diagnosed AND work on the issues I have from what I used to think was all my fault, that I was lazy, etc etc.
Good fun! /s

132·22 days agoI’ll believe it when the contracts are signed and shovels are in the ground. With a minority Liberal government, I have a hard time believing it’s going to happen.
It’s good to hear progress, but unless the Liberals maintain power, there’s still too much uncertainty if it’ll take off.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Alberta to invoke notwithstanding clause to send striking teachers back to workEnglish
2·1 month agoNot by much. Doug at least sometimes walks back on his poor decisions when enough pressure mounts, but he’ll still appease his donors by fucking the people one way or another.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.ca•The hidden cost driving up housingEnglish
7·1 month agoDevelopment fees don’t go towards road infrastructure, they go towards upgrading the local infrastructure to handle the new influx of residents.
I don’t agree about the development fees covering those costs, but homeowners go absolutely ballistic about rising property taxes

Canada Post@lemmy.ca•The privatization crisis at Canada PostEnglish
3·1 month agoThat sounds like a good idea, essentially pivoting Canada Post towards a communications service model, which could actually help improve the infrastructure in this country compared to giving the big 3 handouts to hopefully improve infrastructure which hasn’t been working.
Now I want a blues clues blanket! >~<

4·1 month agoIt feels a bit weird but unsurprising seeing Ontario be at moderate risk. Then again, the current government has 0 interest in trans issues (at least to move in a positive direction)

ADHD memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Completed to-do lists are my drugEnglish
5·2 months agoTo be fair, at least with a lot of games I play, the task is usually persistently displayed on screen and there’s either some type/combo of guided navigation, quest marker or glowing thing highlighting the thing you need to do/interact with.
Then again, I still get distracted with side quests/shiny things but much easier to get back on task when the information and optional guidance is right there



I uhhh get very excited and bouncy and flap around a bunch when I watch cartoons… at 29 years old😅
