Me: Laughing out loud at my own thoughts
My mom, furious: Can you please show some respect and decorum at your grandfather’s funeral?
“How can you expect me to concentrate when there is one (1) empty coffee cup on my desk? I need to clean up this chaotic mess. It’s Too LOUD!”
fmtx@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•how many people came to this platform due to leaving / being banned from Reddit?English5·5 days agoI joined Reddit thanks to 3rd party apps, and when they turned their back on them I was out too.
I used one of those automated programs that used the old.reddit API to overwrite all my comments. I took a break for lunch, thinking to delete my account afterwards, but when I came back my account had been permanently banned.
So it was definitely like one of those “You can’t quit, you’re fired” type of situations.
From time to time I visit the site because of search results, but from what I can tell, all the main subreddits are filled with bots reposting the same content from 5 years ago.

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it 🐧
Yes, this is, in my limited but growing understanding, very normal behavior for us neuro-divergent types (ADHD, Autism, etc.)
ADHD dialogue options:
- Backstory leading to conclusion.
- Backstory NOT leading to conclusion.
- Tangent! leading to nowhere!
- Interrupting them.
- Wait, what?
fmtx@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your harmless/low-stakes conspiracy theory?English12·11 days agoJoy murdered Bing Bong in Disney’s Inside Out (2015).
Just got diagnosed last week, and I am well into adulthood.
It’s a bit early yet. I am on starter meds and have a follow up appointment in a few weeks. Already though I have noticed impulse control is much better. It’s like I have a time machine that’s given me a few extra moments to respond to stimuli. Anxiety levels are also way down, and I don’t feel the frazzled need to jump to the next thing, trying to get a dopamine fix.
Trying now to pursue a 3 prong style of treatment: medication, forming new habits, and mindfulness/observation. I am doing mood journaling to try to capture my experience.
I have 2 settings. Highly engaging radio talk show host who
won’tcan’t shut up, or “wallflower mode, pls don’t notice me or I may burst into tears /flames.”

Maybe we just use different languages.English4·28 days agoSo, I guess the correct response is to do what Kuzco did in the movie, and drink each one in sequence until you drink the right one (while running in terror)?
fmtx@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Do a bit of murdering on the wayEnglish1·28 days agoI wonder what the ratio is for Prime Directive Violations vs. Janeway Drinks Coffee in an episode.
Would more coffee consumed in an episode correlate to less Prime Directive violations… or more? 🤔
fmtx@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Movies@lemmy.world•What is your favorite Akira Kurosawa movie?English5·1 month agoRan (1985).
Great cinematography, slow burn rising action like the building of a storm, and Lady Kaede is quite possibly one of the most subtly unsettling characters I’ve ever seen portrayed in fiction.
