Remember when Xbox was going to basically ban used games for the xbox one, and Playstation made fun of them with that video titled "how to share games on Playstation" and it was just one guy handing another a game disk? And now Playstation is getting rid of physical disks entirely
But low key makes me think about how people with adhd have been raised their whole lives to value a day based on what they accomplished vs what they experienced
I think your point is excellent. But also consider:
That list might say things like “Paint a picture. Go birdwatching. Finish that great novel I started reading. Call my grandma. Learn to bake a cake. Visit my sister. Play piano.”
For me at least, the good/fun things are harder without meds too. I can have the best intentions, but following through is hard.
Yeah. I once made a post in which I complained about being frustrated at my brain, and one of the things I said was:
“I should not be struggling this much to do things that I want to do and have the time, space, energy, and skills to do.
Actually, when I list it all out like that, I should not be struggling at all to do those kinds of tasks.”
And I STILL somehow got a rant about capitalism in the comments. And I do understand where it’s coming from, yes, but goddamn did I not make myself clear? Did I not say Things That I Want To Do???

now do you see why I hold equal parts love and fear for rabbits? They are prey animals. They don't think like us. They have sharp teeth and are very fast.
Do you think tumblr will ever learn the difference between “I’m defending this person because I agree with them wholeheartedly and I am also like this person” and “I’m defending this person because your behavior is dangerous and you need to stop”
IMO, blurring the lines between “I’m defending them because they’re right” and “I’m defending them because you’re taking this too far” is step numero uno to cutting down the very existence of fair trial and democracy–even in places where saying that might seem a little dramatic.
Mob mentality is extremely strong in humans and it’s also extremely dangerous. Mobs don’t think things through. Mobs kill and they destroy and they can’t be reasoned with. Someone trying to calm a mob down isn’t someone defending the ~problematic party~ It’s time we re-learn that.
sir do you listen to classical music? If yes do you have any recs?
I am, in fact, a classically trained oboist!
Classical music is an enormous genre, spanning centuries and cultures. Because of my training, I focus on the Western tradition. I enjoy the baroque and romantic periods the most, with some 20th century.
Usually when asked for recommendations (assuming you are new to classical), I lean towards music that feels like a movie soundtrack or otherwise has memorable themes non-musicians easily remember:
Ma Vlast - Moldau: Smetana
Danse Macabre: Saint-Saens
Night on Bald Mountain: Mussorgsky
New World Symphony: Dvorak
Scheherazade: Rimsky-Korsakov
The Planets: Holst
Symphony No. 4: Tchaikovsky (5 is also a banger)
Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis: Vaughan Williams (Lark Ascending is also great)
My personal favorites, however, are what I enjoy playing:
Summer Music: Barber
Trio and Sextuor: Poulenc
Serenade for Winds: Dvorak
Double concerto: J.S. Bach
Sinfonische Metamorphosen: Hindemith
Concerto for Orchestra: Bartok
I do have one exception, and it's that I fucking love the Beethoven Violin Concerto.
The RVW piece reminded me of something and I'd love to hear your thoughts, but I have to preface by saying that what I'm about to direct your attention to may (at least at first impression) seem like the worst idea you've ever heard if you're not already aware of it.
There's a guy who has a youtube channel on which - among many other pieces - he has posted an arrangement of the entirety of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring, note for note (as far as I can tell), but
performed as heavy metal.
Also half of the pieces on your intro list (Danse Macabre, Night on Bald Mountain, The Planets (all of them), a medley of RVW) and various others.
As someone who will argue that power metal is the spiritual successor of J.S. Bach, I love me a good arrangement, and it's especially fun when it changes the genre.
I mean, in the classical music biz, we are almost *all* cover bands of one sort or another. Even when playing something "straight," there is a tremendous amount of variation, and many traditional styles (baroque ornamentation, cadenzas in concertos) outright demand personalization on the part of the performer.

i used to struggle so badly as an autistic teen when i would get into disagreements with my friends and they would frequently tell me “you think you’re always right!” to which i would be like, well, yes, i do believe the things i believe and dont believe things i dont believe ergo i think i am right
i was at the function bringing arguments to a screeching halt because suddenly im like “why would i have and express an opinion i dont think is right? of course i think im right. thats dumb”
FOR THOSE WONDERING AS I DID FOR SO LONG, “you think you’re always right” usually roughly translates to “you think you can never be wrong” and was usually said to me when i was being straight up obstinate and refusing to consider other perspectives
I was an obnoxious know-it-all as a kid who had to work on tact in situations where I could technically be right but like... wrong due to the fact that I was blatantly ignoring social expectations because I thought they were dumb. Correct answer, maybe, totally wrong approach and in many circumstances the approach is like half the obstacle. It took a lot of self reflection to get better at this but it's a skill you must hone if you want anyone to like you.
It's like when your math teacher wanted you to show your work even though you already had the answer. It's not always about the answer itself. Sometimes it's about learning other ways to do things, and being able to guide someone else through the process. We live in a society.
Which brings me to my ex, the most correct neurotyplical person that's ever existed. He was so arrested in development socially that you'd be genuinely surprised to learn that he wasn't raised by hornets on a deserted island. Baffling, truly that he had no excuse to behave the way he did (his family were wonderful, friendly people but no one had ever told him no.)
He would accuse me of being wrong about the weirdest shit, like topics I was objectively, obviously, without question better educated about (like my major) and then fly off the handle when I'd get tired of trying to explain it while being called stupid and just hand him a textbook to prove my case without having to engage with him directly anymore.
Sometimes I think he was only disagreeing because he held this strange belief that only one person on Earth could ever be right at a time. Rightness was a finite resource and he needed to hoard it like toilet paper in 2020.
If you said the sky was blue, to be The One That is Right he would try to launch into a physics debate all cocky but his science was never ever good. He didn't have a basic grasp on what colors were. Which would be fine if he wasn't trying to tell you what blue is.
Once you can endure no more and just show him the wikipedia for The Sky he'd get visibly angry and yell at you. "You can never admit you're wrong!" Sir, I'm about to join the Mars project just to get as far away from you as humanly possible. Ffs. Months in isolation in Arizona sounds like a vacation. He did not have a solid grasp on the difference between an opinion and a fact and he had so many opinions about facts.
Anyway, when I broke up with him, I emailed the teacher I gave the most guff to as a kid and apologized for acting even a fraction of that annoying in his class. To be fair to child me, I believed in the existence of exoplanets and (at the time) my teacher did not. Unfathomable to me, whose special interest was space, but I was so fucking irritating about it. Imagine having a college education and an 8 year old insists they know more than you.
P.S. I am wrong about so much. Do not ask me to use a map for navigation! Don't expect me to do any math quickly. There are plenty of topics I am not well educated in -- thing is I'll never walk into your tedtalk and debate you about them. 😂
Sometimes the problem is you must overcome the autistic urge to be understood correctly (esp. about being right) and sometimes you're just an asshole. The autism is easier to navigate.
In grade school we learned the normal way to do multiplication one day and then the lattice way the next, except I was sick the day we learned the normal way and they never went back and reviewed it and neither did I and so to this day I only know how to use the lattice method
Yeah it took me a while to figure it out, but I DID! So for me and you and everyone else going “wait wtf just happened????” I present a more step by step breakdown!
So you start with a grid with as many squares as needed to write one number across the top and one number down the side. And draw these diagonal lines through them. Yes you should extend them out the side.
THEN you basically multiply the numbers that match with each square, put the tens digit in the top triangle and the ones digit in the bottom triangle. Like so:
so once you’ve done that, you start adding up the numbers in the DIAGONAL column/row thingies from the bottom right up to the top left, like so:
You only want one digit (tho I assume if the very top/last row somehow gets 2 digits that’s ok, but ONLY in that position) and you’ll carry over to the next column, like if you were adding normally.
Then you start at the top left and just take all the numbers going down and around and put them together!
It does take up a lot more space and has a few more steps than the more traditional long multiplication, I think, but for people who struggle with that I think this would be a handy tool!
Here’s a screenshot of the more traditional style to compare:
I hope this helps! I had to figure it out on my own bc I was never taught this either. :)
