in fairness, that wood on the right can absolutely light up without any direct action at all.

lmao i was not ready

and half the people around will clap and cheer, telling everybody that he made that fire all by himself, the self-made genius of our time, and anybody saying otherwise is just poor, jealous, and lazy

this man has never made a second trip to the car for groceries in his life

are those a viable option? seems they'd be super expensive, limited availability (don't think i've ever seen one in real life, imagine only super wealthy people have them right now?), limited styles, etc.

they seem so neat tho. i just haven't tracked what's going on with that tech since before the pandemic 😅

haha how fitting that would be tho

not even a Washington fan and i'd lose my mind

congrats! that's encouraging for me to hear. i literally started taking my meds (finally, in my town it was hard to find a pharmacy willing to fill a schedule 2) yesterday.

yeah i was just recently diagnosed at 37. learning so much about it, a lot of stuff makes a lot more sense now 😅 my symptoms weren't terribly obvious either, or in the classic sense of what most people (myself included) traditionally think of as ADHD. i just suddenly had a lot of friends getting diagnosed, explaining their symptoms to me, and thinking "wait that's not normal??" 😅 turns out i had kept the company of people that are a lot like me, which now i realize is probably super common.

...yet posted in r/GetMotivated lol

that's what i was thinking. my whole life i've been called lazy and i never really understood why i simply couldn't until i got a diagnosis and read about the spectrum of ADHD symptoms. "just make yourself do things" is the most unhelpful advice and is usually given by people trying to feel good about themselves like they're fuckin Tony Robbins rather than actually be helpful/encouraging.

rough. i watched my grandpa suffer from it, slowly progressing for decades. he's gone now, but i really hope to see a cure within my lifetime.
