I'm so sorry. Take care of yourself.

If I do turn out to have ADHD, I'm going to be so miffed I got the limerence hyperfixations instead of the random craft project hyperfixations

"I am so lacking in creativity", I think to myself sadly as I get ready to go dancing, the day before the first of two D&D games I will run this week.

Like, I just want to know. I also don't know if I'm autistic. That's why I want to talk to a specialist about it, not a generalist who has met me for about all of five minutes.

Thinking about the phrase "paying attention will crack you open" and how I am so afraid of feeling too deeply because it does feel like being cracked open and how much I admire people who embrace that anyway - not because they aren't also afraid, but because that is the point.

Devastated to hear Michael Taliadoros has left us. Universally known as ‘Mikey T’ he was the voice of AFC Wimbledon on the PA, Radio WDON and beyond with encyclopaedic Dons knowledge and unique memory recall from attending 2,000+ consecutive games. Will be much missed by all 🔵🟡

Pile of John Green's Hollywood, Ending, the signed Waterstones edition, nestled among other books.

I am so vulnerable to Big Feelings right now, especially about art and community. It somehow managed to feel like both a personal attack and also exactly what I need.

I don't have many to compare it to, but I think this is a pretty decent signature, despite the slight fade on the upstroke of the J. Mostly the lines are full and bold, the loop is good and the scribble aesthetically pleasing at least to my untrained eye. 4 stars.

Signed page from the UK edition of Hollywood, Ending.
It reads:
Exclusive Signed Edition
Then there is a J-scribble in green.

the One Job of a party selling itself as liberal is to BE liberal--defending individual rights, freedoms, & equality--and that means saying "no, fuck off" to all the weirdos spouting their curtain-twitcher issues with Those People. if you throw any Those People under the bus, you failed that One Job

NGL, the speed with which my stepmother-out-law said "well, yes" when I mentioned I'd asked for autism and ADHD assessments was a little insulting.

The idea that GPs are ignoring guidelines and ‘overprescribing’ doesn’t hold water. Instead, look to our social and economic crises, says doctor of neuroscience Dean Burnett

Reasons I am secretly a terrible person #342: the temptation to give #HcommaE a one star review on Goodreads just to include the line "John, you should not be reading this" is VERY high.

I tend to assume "title" means "honorific" and if they want "job title" they'll say so. But I have a less impressive sounding job title so 🤷

TBC blood cancer is job related, not a personal diagnosis. And actually it really depends on the blood cancer! Some chronic ones are pretty easily managed with medication, some don't need treating at all unless they start causing problems. It's a real mixed bag.

Son is on board with crazy idea, which was my last major worry, but insists we wait to make sure we get it right. Which is probably correct. Part of me just wants to DO IT NOW. But really there is no time limit. It's been six years. Another six months or more would be fine.
