my life with ADHD
This is very true and a great post.
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.
This addition is so important.
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???
I no longer know how to enjoy life and I'm positive I'll end up being unhoused someday soon. I'm an auDHD person with no real life plans, qualifications, or whatever the hell's necessary to make a living. Also my family and social environments made sure I understood just how worthless, stuck up, and a failure I was, so it all adds up in the end. Doesn't matter how many skills I actually had or how easy some things came to me. It's like I'm doomed to fail. I pray for swift release some days, but it never comes.
A mouth-watering fuck-ton of hand angle references.

BLESS YOU, YOU WONDERFUL PERSON
One of the most common complaints about Star Trek I saw growing up was “why don’t they use the holodeck more? If you were living in that time period and you could just make anything you wanted anytime you wanted and live out fantasies forever, why aren’t more people addicted to the holodeck?”
And then generative ai was created.
And now I get it. I get why nobody on Star Trek spends all their free time in the holodeck. I get why all the crew are putting on stage plays, and holding music recitals, and building models, and playing poker. I get why everyone was so skeptical and mean to the Doctor on Voyager. I get why the ONE TIME we see someone obsessed with the holodeck it infringes on people’s likeness rights and permissions.
Because fundamentally at the end of the day we are human beings and we ENJOY working with our hands and making REAL human connections. A person who learns to play an instrument is always going to be viewed as an artist over someone who asks the computer to generate music for them.
Even as recent as Lower Decks they were making fun of the fact that the crew were putting on amateurish plays and holding music recitals. But after living with Ai for so long and seeing how detrimental it’s been to the world… I’d much rather watch my friends put on a stage play than “participate” in a holodeck movie.
What’s most amazing about this is that it was completely unintentional. I do not for one second think that the writers of the time in the 90’s were really thinking about the larger issues that generative ai and chatGTP would cause. How could they? Text to speech back then was still robotic as heck. More likely they wrote that stuff in because it was cheaper to film on sets the owned than try to build, film, or rent out different locations each week.
That’s the down to earth logistical real reason Data is reciting poems about his cat or Riker is in a play put on in ten forward. It’s just cheaper to do that than to build a whole new set or move production to a new location.
Yet at the end of the day, I think that unintentionally speaks to a very human need that ai is making more and more prevalent to us day in and day out.
And that’s the fact nobody wants to deal with generative SLOP.
The eight stages of writing :
- this is awesome
- this is slightly less awesome
- this is shit
- I’m shit
-oh god oh fuck what the hell am I doing
-wait this might not be that bad actually
- How the fuck is this working
-This is awesome

i saw somebody say “what if you’re gone and i haven’t become anything yet” and basically that broke me on a random thursday evening

I really thought that Aziraphale and Crowley were going to rewrite the Book of Life.
I really thought they were going to become the Illustrator and Author.
I really thought that's why all the books in the shop were made blank.
I really thought God wasn't going to actually exist in a true form, and instead be a kind of omnipresent power of creation.
I really thought that they were going to have their forced-proximity-making-up-with-each-other as they were required to work together to write the new Book of Life.
I really thought that they were going to choose *their* humanity and not a new one.
I really thought they would still be themselves at the end.
I really thought the moral of the story was that the humanity they had was worth protecting, and that life itself (whether mortal or otherwise) was beautiful and inherently important.
I really thought this story was about a love that transcends.
I understand the path they took. However. I do think it missed the mark on what the show was really trying to say.
The thing about South Downs that gets me is that it was the promise of them being retired. Good Omens started as a comedy about beings (celestial, human, and occult) who are bad at their jobs, and none more so than Aziraphale and Crowley. The two of them invent the entire Arrangement as a way to skive off work and have more time to hang out together! They mouth the party line, but neither one of them more than one-quarter believes it. They always just wanted to quit and hang out and day drink and putter around and goggle at the things humans get up to and occasionally get mixed up in them. The mistake everyone around them made was assuming that being an angel and a demon said something about their nature, but really it was just their job description. And it would have been such a fitting character arc, and perfect send-off, if the ending had gotten things to where they could have said "we are not those jobs anymore, we are just us" and gotten to spend the rest of eternity being themselves. And not working. Which they are very bad at anyway.
