Trying to worldbuild with ADHD is like

"Okay I want sustainable woodworking and logging to be kind of a core feature of this ethnic group's trade and relative self-sufficiency, so I'm gonna do some research on logging. What's that word for when you float logs down a river? I should probably put them near a river. Hell yeah geographical feature. That is a thing I can add to a map. I'm so good at worldbuilding. Oh you have to cure lumber before it can be usable--that makes sense, that's why it doesn't rot. Okay gonna watch this video on curing wood. Huh this video's kinda boring and a little too modern in terms of my worldbuilding. Oh! I had that really neat old-timey book on woodworking I stole from my dad! I'm gonna get it!

Huh New Jersey had cedar swamps?

New Jersey cleared out its cedar swamps so bad that by the 1800's they were literally mining hunks of dead cedar out of the swamp like how Irish people in peat bogs would haul perfectly-preserved centuries-old logs out of the peat and use them for firewood?

They cleared out the trees that bad?

Google New Jersey Cedar Swamps

Google New Jersey Cedar Swamps Restoration

Google Atlantic White Cedar

Google Who is Saving the Cedar Swamps

Oh shit my notes doc that's right I was going to write.

Google Cranberry Bog Rewilding

Google Cedar Swamps Restoration (again)

(The story does not take place in New Jersey.)

How can I write when the bogs are in peril.

Just thinking about Ilya making the playoffs for the first time with the Cens and getting texts from Yuna and David about it.

Yuna's one is like, "HOLY SHIT THE CENTAURS ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS! I never thought I'd be so excited to say that. 😂 This is such a huge achievement and I couldn't be more proud of you! This means I'm finally going to have to cave and by an Ottawa jersey. Don't tell David I told you, but he's still drying his eyes about it. Bubbly when you and Shane come over on Saturday for SURE, okay? Love you lots. SO proud."

And David's is like, "You did it, Cap! I know how hard you worked for this and it's paid off. We'll be cheering you on for every game. I am so unbelievably proud of you, kiddo. Love you lots - can't wait to see you and Shane on Saturday."

And Ilya just sits there unable to breathe because he's never had a text like this after making the playoffs except maybe from Svetlana. He replies to the messages, eyes blurry with tears, and spends the rest of the night opening them at random times, just overwhelmed by how loved he truly is.

[Video description: Gritty is turning the crank on a flagpole to raise the Progress Pride Flag. He gesticulates angrily that the flag is not blowing in the wind, then gestures offscreen. The flag begins blowing. As Gritty begins raising the flag more, the camera pans out to show a man in a suit and sunglasses, looking like a stern Secret Service agent, is holding a leafblower that points at the flag. End description.]

Imagine being the gays at a pride event in 2004 living their lives when someone grabs the microphone and announces to the room that Ronald Reagan was pronounced dead. Can you even imagine the hype, the celebration, the pure elation
