I used to use caffeine but i stopped a few years ago. During the pandemic i went on adderall because i was struggling to help my kids do online school. I stopped adderall because i moved and adhd'd away my therapist.

Mostly i cope with routine. I eat the same foods for breakfast and lunch most days. I work on unmasking and being radically honest about my struggles with adhd to people around me. I setup auto billpay as much as possible and i cycle through the same few hobbies so i dont waste too much money.

I've recently found that sleep is very important to my body's needs. If my sleep cycle is fucked then my symptoms get wild.

It's the average $ per donation that's important. Republicans tend to get larger amounts of money from fewer sources. This may indicate that they're supported by wealthy individuals and corporations.

Money buys influence

Sometimes artists weren't even given the name of the card. The original art for enlightened mystic was supposed to be for another card entirely

Calling it a dred is inappropriate as dred is a slur used against jamaicans by european colonialists. The proper name for the hairstyle worn by black people is "locks"

Plastic waste recycling is primarily done by shedding the plastic into tiny shards. Sometimes it's even sorted by color

Ive moved around a bit as an adult. Ive found that hobby groups are great to make friends. If you show up every week and don't intentionally make anyone else feel shitty, you'll find that you have friends after a few months.

Ive done this with disc golf, ultimate frisbee, magic the gathering, dungeons and dragons.

If you show up regularly with the intention of having a good time, people will also show up with the intention of having a good time with you

Trump wants to deport protesters and arrest people who burn the American flag. Harris seems content with keeping the 1st amendment rights of America's roughly where it is right now.

Frankly I'd rather organize and mobilize under Harris than trump

Ah so you're a classist. I personally feel like even the poorest members of my country deserve tooth care. Ultimately flouride toothpaste and dentist visits are too expensive for a not insignificant number of people
