My crazy neural connections make me creative. My life of making excuses for my ADHD makes me a great DM and storyteller.

It’s a hungry world

BUT THEY SAID I WAS ONE OF THE GOOD ONES!!!

I’ve just started a new job with a lot of onboarding and my new coworker said “Now you know all of the things! I’ll direct everyone your way!” He was really confused when I tried to explain to him that yes, my hard drive has written all of the information I’ve heard, but my file system is shit so I’ll probably never see it again.

My music varies. Sometimes it’s music I’ve heard recently on loop, sometimes it’s music my brain came up with, but a lot of times it’s in the background. At times I don’t even notice the music is there until I realize I’ve been playing the King George songs from Hamilton on a loop for a couple of weeks. Either that or I’ll start focusing in on something external and start humming what’s in my head without realizing it. Right now, it’s Foxy Brown’s “Oh Lord” on muddled repeat. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.

Oh man, this is that one? I went through their history a couple of days ago when they made one of their weird posts.

Our party is named The Geneva Convention. Checkmate, lawyers! The only thing the Geneva Convention has rules against is violating the Geneva Convention.

It’s a giant “UFO Awareness” ribbon. You can tell because it is the official UFO Awareness color: glowing.

Nice try, local pickpocket.

For those asking what kind of school does drug testing, The Pinnacle Schools in Huntsville, AL are one of those “troubled teen” schools that usually get shut down for abuse. No website for the place that I’ve found, but there’s this PDF: https://media.al.com/breaking/other/The Pinnacle Schools.pdf

This Requiem for a Dream remake is weird.

She needs a sword. It’s educational.

Frickin’ vegans…

You’re here to pass the butter.

Today’s my last day at this job before starting a new job on Monday. In addition to making the rounds and discovering how much people have appreciated my time and will miss me, one of my favorite people I deliver to gave me a painting she had made for me that will now be the first decoration at my new desk.

The internet definition, yes. Because you’ll get a bunch of people who are diagnosed who think that since they have ADHD, everything they do is a symptom so they’ll spread some things that’s just basic human nature.

In the real world, it’s defined just right. The problem there is that people will ignore the “interfering with daily activities/life” part. Sure, everyone is distracted or hyperfocused sometimes, but for us it’s more of a constant issue that we have to find ways to get around to function in society. Or people will look at something like executive dysfunction and think “yeah, sometimes I don’t want to <insert name of task no one wants to do>” because they can’t comprehend the hell of having to force yourself to do the things you love.

I liken it to someone saying “I’m so OCD” just because they put their pens in a desk drawer. No man, OCD wrecks people. You’ve just finally decided to be slightly neat.

Next stage is some amount of time away from video games.

The stage after that is nostalgia: someone will mention one of the games you loved back in the day and you’ll think “That was when I was happiest. I should find out how to play that again.”

Then you’ll find some way to play it, whether by cobbling together some emulation software or buying some As Seen on TV handheld game that includes your game and a hundred others.

You’ll scratch a little bit of the itch, but decide to start checking out the current video game scene.

Once you realize everything now is too flashy and fast and annoying or it has some dreaded multiplayer requirement that you no longer have enough friends to fulfill and the public rooms of the game are filled with a bunch of children.

Eventually, you’ll stumble into the future’s version of Stardew Valley and be content just building quiet little worlds by yourself.
