Please behold my grandlizard, Sebastian, master of poker and imbiber of illicit substances, party goer extraordinaire (all the pets have a conjured fictional life, it’s the tradition).
Here he is resting, back from one of his escapades. (He’s back living with me for the spring/summer, I’ve told him no keggers on my watch)

@gikkt That’s kind of you, but also, it’s a sucky experience and I’m sorry you had it.
@hollie thank you
@alter_unicorn It would be fun to just collect everyone's funny stories! 😊
Also I like using humor to kinda pat everyone on the shoulder, like, "Yeah we see each other, being neurodivergent isn't easy, but we're all in this together, and we can laugh at this stuff."
@hollie it can raise awareness. raisind awareness has become my main battle. normalize neurodiversity everywhere! @actuallyadhd
Going to try to self host an RSS aggregator again.
My previous attempts through NextCloud and WordPress both pettered out because of parsing errors.
Both depended on SimplePie which choked on multilingual content.
This happened when an English language publisher used a loan word, or quoted someone with for example _é_ in name.
I didn’t have the bandwidth to hunt down the issue at the time, and kind of want something a bit more robust.
Open to self hosted suggestions 🙏
Hi @django,
I'm ok with https://miniflux.app (Web, Go+Postgresql, .deb) but never had a multilingual #Atom #feed.
I’m losing my patience with #Outlander and might skip to the final season. At a certain age one begins to value their time enough to commit such acts of television blasphemy. See also: if you aren’t enjoying the book, put it down (or skim to the end and then put it down).
Besides the more serious annoyances (like SA content that happens more than I can tolerate) the time travel problems are really getting to me. Like are you just using time travel as a flimsy framework to hold all the boffing? Because that’s what it feels lik - oh. Well. 🤔 Yes that does make sense.
books: the rectangle that can’t send you push notifications. Try: books.

@hollie It's been a rough week and not everyone is handling it well. If their lashing out at me helps, well I'm glad for them I guess?

@hollie @actuallyadhd C) put the card in my work bag and carry it around with me for the next 2 weeks, and set multiple calendar reminders in my phone to remind myself to put it in the mailbox, on consecutive days so that if I forget the first day I'll be reminded again the next day... etc.

@fraggle @actuallyadhd I’ve lost mail in my bag too, you aren’t alone! :)
I’ve often wanted to make an ADHD screening test, written by me and other ADHDers (totally a joke yet also totally real), where you give different scenarios and then options for how things will turn out.
Like, oh, say, this one:
You have an amazing convergence of luck and executive function, and realize that a beloved old friend’s birthday is in three weeks (in case she’s reading this: the friendship is old, not you). In another unusual stroke of luck, you get a card, sign it, even remember to have your husband sign it, find that you have the perfect stamp, and address the envelope.
What happens then? Do you:
A) Put it on your desk, intending to mail it in a few days when it will arrive just in time for her birthday? And then...actually do that?
B) Put it on your desk, intending to mail it in a few days, then forget about it, lose it, find it in six months, mail it, after texting her an awkward yet skillful (thanks to years of practice) apology?

If you need something nice to put on your screen for awhile (or all day, as I've been doing), here are some very good birbs:
