My mom. Super skinny her whole life. People thought she took care of herself, but I knew that she forgot to eat for days.
I used to think that would be nice. I have the other end of it where I am constantly nibbling for dopamine hits.
I never manage to do it more than about 3 weeks before my brain just completely shuts off that pathway and it’s like I forget that process exists altogether.
This is me. How can you just “forget” something you’ve developed into a routine and done daily for a month? I do though. Shit.
I am not every ADHD person, but this could have been written by me. I had NO IDEA that you could have something be so ingrained that you don’t think about it. Even if I develop a “routine” of doing something, it is NEVER automatic. I have to put mental effort, even if small, into every task or it won’t get done.
After reading this my definition of habit would be better termed routine. I develop a routine and I try to stick to it. Also I could have a great routine and it lasts for a month or so and then it’s just, I don’t know what else to call it but ‘gone’. It’s gone. That routine is gone.
Agreed. There is a snobbery to Apple.
They (my inlaws) are all on apple and they get these $2k+ Macs and they do less on them than I do on my non-apple laptop that I got refurbished for a few hundred, but I get a definite sense from them that non-apple products are beneath them.
One of the older family members sends emails and occasionally looks something up online. She often has to hunt down her Mac because she hasn’t used it in a couple of weeks. When she needed to replace it, I suggested something like mine and she got quiet and changed the subject. The next week she was telling me about her new Mac. It cost a fortune, but she didn’t tell me that, to her credit.
They all have iPhones too as if anything less would mean they were in a slightly lower class. I love them or I’d tell them to pound sand.
The person who downvoted you hasn’t experienced this snobbery. It exists though.
I had an older relative who thought that because my bubble was in green that she was being charged to see it.
But why would my parents take me to a doctor when my mom does all the same stuff?
“It’s normal.” …uh, no. Mom had undisagnosed ADHD.
For me it’s annoyng because it’ll hide my own posts, which I’ll check to see if I uploaded to a community I liked for that day.
Keep it, but make it easier to find on the main page instead of hidden in settings.
“Cold pressure”. If you’ve driven the car, as you would to go get the tire pressure checked, the tires are no longer cold and you need to add 4 lbs to the pressure listed.
And replying with replies is very easy too.
Yup. They just missed it. Oh well.
Yes. I use PC and I have tried Jerboa for mobile, but I’m liking Summit right now. Which app do you use and do you like it?
exactly
Someone used the term fledditors. That was me. I signed up on the Wednesday to beehaw after the boycott. I started lemmy.world the Sunday after. IDK. I like lemmy.world better, but beehaw is good too.
Same on making posts hide after viewing. At first I didn’t know how to make it happen, but I found it in settings.
I love when they’re called freedom units.
What’s that in freedom units?
Sounds ridiculous in a good way.
Go to youtube and watch how to make ghee. It’s quite simple. I use butter to make mine. I won’t buy expensive storebought again because it’s so cheap and simple to make.
Why? What purpose does this serve? This is a real question, not a snarky comment. What do I not know?
My relatives in south TX are melting. I hope where you are isn’t as bad.
We don’t have pubs in the area next to my local BWW. Lots of places don’t have pubs.
No.
What good will come of it? What bad will come of it?
I can’t think of a good, but for a bad he could have his heart broken.
He’s her dad. He raised her. Anything else is unimportant after this.
If he finds out and asks her, that is the answer.
“You are my dad.”
Also non-cartel coyotes rest during the day. I lived in Nevada where coyotes are a given, but never in my life saw one during the day.
