Seconding the first comment here: I have ADHD and your description sounds very familiar to me. I am able to use alarms to motivate myself to get up and do some things, but it is definitely not 100% and many alarms are skipped. Another thing that helped me was learning to tell myself it’s ok; it’s to take a break, even a long break, even many long breaks - and it’s ok to not do things that were planned. Being nice to me really helped reshape my understanding of achievement. It never gets easier, but learning how to deal with it definitely changed it from daily dread to enjoying life.

All part of the 5-D chess strategy. When they say check, you respomd with covfeffe. It’s limke Tzun Tzu said: If you don’t know what you’re doing, how can the emeny out think you?

The library of things is also something many public libraries have now. Not just media, but tools, power tools, cooking pans and equipment, pod casting equipment. Definitely worth a look.

So, where do we get have to go when they deport us? I’m Irish/Scottish from about 400 years back, so my ancestors were literally here before the USA existed. Do I get have to go back “home”? Because I’ve always wanted to go!

I had a nice little profile on there until about a month ago. I didn’t delete when I saw AI spammers join. And I kept my profile even when the mods were starting to become reddit-ish. What sent me over the edge was when they announced a partnership with an AI company who said they were “just there to beef up security”. Yeah, no, not for me. Super sad, too, because Bluesky is a good idea, but I’m sticking with the fediverse.

Ubuntu user here. I get glitches from time to time, and the newest update caused a more than small issue with booting. However, compared to the litany of glitches, bloatware, and user-anti-interface of Windows, I’ll sing the praises of Ubuntu all day long. Even the few games I play, like Cyber Punk, run perfectly.

But a printer requires money, which requires a job, which requires a resume, which requires a printer, which requires money, which requires a job, which requires a resume…

1000% this. Spending even an entire work-day to go attend training is part of being in the work force. I’d be spending my personal time dusting off my resume.

Never sailed in a pool before, brb.

Well, from HS bio, I remember urine is stored in the balls. So, maybe some other way to make babby?

Don’t see the kid anywhere in the image, so gotta have something to go on the head.

In other news, it is a bad idea to touch a lit stovetop.

Here’s what I remember:

Started in a sleepy town at night in a tavern. NPC comes in and says there’s been another abduction.

Everyone runs out and the party joins one of the village rangers who turns out to be a regular NPC for most of the session.

The only lead for the abduction is into the forest. Once the party gets to a certain point, they have an encounter and the ranger leaves, and another NPC shows up who is the leader of the secret village i the forest. They explain that there is no way to leave their village, and they have been hunting a crystal stag (this has the secret item needed to engage the Big Boss, the Veil Keeper, who’s been abducting villagers and also is the reason no one can leave the hidden forest village.

Once the party defeats the stag and goes into the Veil Keeper’s fortress, they realize the ranger NPC from earlier is the Veil Keeper.

Fill in whatever else you like. I added and changed a ton as we went along to make things more interesting.

Just did one with the family. Was a mystery-abduction tale and I ended up adding in stuff as we went to make it more interesting. I think the baddie was the Veil Keeper or something, and their lair was a time-locked village with a one-way path into it from a dark forest. Dunno what specifics you’re asking for, but I can try to share more if you want.

I second this. I’m into gaming and dev, so I went with the Framework 16 amd got the extender for the graphics card. These are amazing machines and work with linux out of the box. Also modular, which was a requirement for me. Good luck searching!

As an autistic person, I wholeheartedly agree.
