toddler started playing a game a while ago where he points at dad and says "you're [toddler]. I'm Dada" and then they roleplay being each other. I gotta say. the schadenfreude, the absolute satisfaction, when toddler says "eat your hot dog" and dad says "no! I want a lot!!" (imitating what the toddler does when he refuses to eat unless he is given a GIANT PILE of food, which he will eat approximately 5% of) and toddler says "you can have this" (exactly what we say to him in this situation) and dad says "I WANT A LOT!!" and the toddler tries to think of a way to convince him and says "EAT IT!!" with visible frustration. exquisite. incredible
extremely fucked up that one of the symptoms of adhd is forgetfulness and difficulty sticking to habits and schedules and one of the best ways to alleviate those symptoms is by remembering to take a pill every morning at the same time
"i get on the computer basically first thing, i can just put my adhd meds next to my computer!" yeah but if i do that my brain will actively erase my pill bottle from being on my desk bc its now just part of the desk. another of god's little proofs he desires us to guillotine him
"just set an alarm!" i will hear the alarm go off, look directly at the alarm's title of TAKE YOUR ADHD MEDS RIGHT NOW OR YOU'LL FORGET, and then turn off the alarm. and youll never guess what happens next. i bet youll never fuckin guess what happens when i havent taken my dont forget shit pill
posts that remind you you forgot to take your meds
Tape the bottle to the screen
(and then forget to tape it back on the night before)
NASA Data Sonification: Black Hole Remix
In this sonification of Perseus. the sound waves astronomers previously identified were extracted and made audible for the first time. The sound waves were extracted outward from the center. (source)
>First, weβve discovered that about a quarter of all the internet connection in or out of the house were ad related. In a few hours, thatβs about 10,000 out of 40,000 processed.
>We also discovered that every link on Twitter was blocked. This was solved by whitelisting the https://t.co domain.
>Once out browsing the Web, everything is loading pretty much instantly. It turns out most of that Page Loading malarkey weβve been accustomed to is related to sites running auctions to sell Ad space to show you before the page loads. All gone now.
>We then found that the Samsung TV (which I really like) is very fond of yapping all about itself to Samsung HQ. All stopped now. No sign of any breakages in its function, so Iβm happy enough with that.
>The primary source of distress came from the habitual Lemmings player in the house, who found they could no longer watch ads to build up their in-app gold. A workaround is being considered for this.
>The next ambition is to advance the Ad blocking so that it seamlessly removed YouTube Ads. This is the subject of ongoing research, and tinkering continues. All in all, a very successful experiment.
>Certainly this exceeds my equivalent childhood project of disassembling and assembling our rotary dial telephone. A project whose only utility was finding out how to make the phone ring when nobody was calling.
>Update: All4 on the telly appears not to have any ads any more. Goodbye Arnold Clarke!
>Lemmings problem now solved.
>Can confirm, after small tests, that RTΓ Player ads are now gone and the player on the phone is now just delivering swift, ad free streams at first click.
>Some queries along the lines of βAre you not stealing the internet?β Firstly, this is my network, so I may set it up as I please (or, you know, my son can do it and I can give him a stupid thumbs up in response). But there is a wider question, based on the ads=internet model.
>Iβm afraid I passed the You Wouldnβt Download A Car point back when I first installed ad-blocking plug-ins on a browser. But consider my chatty TV. Individual consumer choice is not the method of addressing pervasive commercial surveillance.
>Should I feel morally obliged not to mute the TV when the ads come on? No, this is a standing tension- a clash of interests. But I think my interest in my family not being under intrusive or covert surveillance at home is superior to the ad companyβs wish to profile them.
>Aside: 24 hours of Pi Hole stats suggests that Samsung TVs are very chatty. 14,170 chats a day.
>YouTube blocking seems difficult, as the ads usually come from the same domain as the videos. Havenβt tried it, but all of the content can also be delivered from a no-cookies version of the YouTube domain, which doesnβt have the ads. I have asked my son to poke at that idea.
fastest reblog in the west
Yeppers. :)
reblogging for study later AND to spread the info.
Seriously, get and run PiHole if you can. It changes your internet experience so much for the better. I get shocked when I visit a website when I'm someone else's network, by just how many ads the internet is flooded with now. Take back control.

Am I wet? Am I on my period? Did I pee my pants?- next on wtf is going on down there.
Iβm so glad this is a universal wondering among vagina-owners, haha.
βVagina-ownersβ
Tune in next time for: Are these menstrual cramps? Am I pregnant? Is it just gas? I wouldnβt have to ask these questions if I didnβt have a damn uterus
Next week: Is it a bladder infection? An ovarian cyst? Do I have endometriosis? Oh God please do not let it be cervical cancer! A 20/20 special
Y'all are forgetting the all-time classic: Is it just my period or is my appendix about to burst? Some nice tea and a heatpack or 911 and emergency surgery?
There is actually a test for that last one!
Place your hand over the pain, press down slightly and release. If the pain doesnβt change by any great margin, youβre fine. If it suddenly becomes some painful you can barely stand, Get thee to an Emergency Room
reblog for the safety of vaginas and their owners
The appendix test works with or without a vagina so reblogging for everyone.
thereβs a website where you put in two musicians/artists and it makes a playlist that slowly transitions from one musicianβs style of music to the otherβs
itβs really fun
lady gaga -> napalm death takes a weird detour through epic rap battles of history
This is actually really useful for finding music thatβs in between genres that I wouldnβt know to look for.
This has nothing to do with books but itβs COOL
I feel like this could be useful for trying to slowly pull yourself away from your depression music to something more uplifting without it being jarringβ¦
Link above is broken, so here:
the human stress response seems so maladaptive!
To be fair 99% of our evolutionary stress response was meant to deal with far more immediately conclusive scenarios than the tedious bullshit we put up with these days.
very very slow tigers are chasing me
not to leave a serious comment on a silly post but one of the best pieces of advice I ever got about stress was to SLEEP but secondly, when overwhelmed, lay in a bed and intentionally hold all your muscles clenched. clench EVERYTHING. hold it for a few seconds, then let go. It tricks your animal fight-or-flight monkey brain into thinking it had, and won, a fight, and some of the stress response will leave you
#turn a slow tiger into a fast tiger with this fucked up trick
I need everyone to know that when I am educating clients on tension release exercises in therapy all I can think of is this post. It takes everything out of me not to say "let's try the fucked up tiger trick" in session.
just say it queen, let's make it happen

vampires have been drinking human blood for centuries they don't give a fuck about guys on eight different antidepressants. they were sucking on asbestos factory workers
The absolutely hilarity of imagining some older vampires hectoring younger ones.Β βBack in my day, I had to drink blood with radium in it and I liked it! We glowed in the damn dark for weeks!β
You kids have no idea how easy you have it these days. "Oh last week I mixed someone on fluoxetine with someone on tramadol" boo-hoo, you know what they used to decorate houses with? Arsenic! Fucking arsenic! Oh they knew it was poison but it was such a lovely colour - now I'm as much for impractical aesthetics as the next person who sleeps in a decorative coffin but I saw it, it's just green. Green! They willingly poisoned themselves and me for green wallpaper!
You know what lead poisoning is? Nor did humans for fucking ages, they just thought the constipation was an imbalance of the humours and you know what they took for it? Mercury. Mercury! You know what they did for mercury poisoning? More fucking mercury! After a hundred years in London you can use your uncle Jerry like a thermometer!
Tramadol, gimme a break, used to be they'd take heroin for a cough. Didn't stop the cough but you'd be amazed what maladies you don't care about with your blood full of heroin. Definitely took the edge off the fucking arsenic...
Not only is this a great rebuttal to misinformation, it's also a strong reminder that you need to CITE YOUR SOURCES. If you're making a claim, if you're trying to share information, if you want to make sure you aren't perpetuating the cycle of misinformation, you have got to show your work and cite your sources.
You aren't immune to being tricked by misinfo. Neither am I. Especially in this age of generative AI and journalism industry instability, we've all got to do our part not to speak blatant bullshit.
"if you see someone shoplifting, no you didn't" no but like. i really didn't. i have never in my life seen someone shoplifting because i'm not watching anyone else in the grocery store..? how are y'all noticing things like that. my only goals are enter the store, survive, exit the store
New Looney Tunes Crew done did it again
It took me a few seconds to realize this is new! The art style and the animation style are so similar to the originals that the only tells I could find are the higher quality from the ones I grew up with and they were never in a sushi restaurant in any of the old shorts I remember.
Revolving sushi bars came to the US in the early 2000s, so yes, this is delightfully sizing up a brand-new modern, interesting space with contraptions and objects we're all familiar with and transforming into a fantastic battleground and obstacle course.
I'm 3 episodes into X-MEN 97, and it is profoundly strange in the exact same way that this is, and just as much fun, too.
So Fox News ran a story about how they think libraries are turning into drug-infested sex dens and I am shocked, shocked that I was never offered any drugs during my 15+ years working in libraries.
Where do they think the sex is happening?? Every single aisle is lit in that horrible LED lighting. The teens don't even make out here anymore.
As a state certified librarian I can assure you that you just have to go into your local library and ask if they're participating in the new Fox News Hysteria program smh. If they're not, you'll just have to renew your library card and use the fun and valuable resources they're offering right now, such as wifi hotspots, museum passes, dvd lending, mid level adult erotica, ebook lending, and printing! π

Iβm going to have a fucking breakdown
Ever hear an Andean cock of the rock before? Probably not, or maybe you have and didn't realise it, because they sound quite a bit like a kookaburra!
Kookaburra laugh: just absolutely losing it at some silly nonsense
Cock of the rock laugh: you are about to die to an Evil Scientist Device
Motion-sensor-activated Halloween decoration on its last legs.
