Scientists once thought that ADHD symptoms were always present. But previous research from Rapport, who has been studying ADHD for more than 36 years, has shown the fidgeting was most often present when children were using their brains' executive functions, particularly "working memory." That's the system we use for temporarily storing and managing information required to carry out complex cognitive tasks such as learning, reasoning and comprehension.

The fact i even need to say this is crazy, but its true, and people won’t listen

[pottsess]

I wasn’t allowed to play these games.

I’m a felon.

Check mate.

So… Mary Kate and/or Ashley are in this zoom?

[pottsess]

Lists you shouldnt have:

Friends who have been roofied

Friends who have been groped

Friends who have been raped

But we all have them or are in the list themselves….

[pottsess]

Was talking about rape and all that because it’s a normal conversation for women.

I brought up the statistic about how every 1/4 women are raped.

My friend was like that’s only reported.

Thinking about my 5 sexual assaults and 1 rape none reported, that fucking hit me.

So many more women are being hurt by men than numbers can quantify with our inability to report.

Mine was a good friend for 8 years, who wants to report that?

How many more women felt the same?

[pottsess]

People get so uncomfortable when I cry or am upset.

They tell me I need to grow up, stop being so sensitive and emotional.

But, with all my heart, fuck you.

If you get uncomfortable because you made me cry, that’s a you problem. I’m already dealing with my own problems in a healthy way.

You get uncomfortable with sensitive people, don’t be an asshole or just deal with how they react.

Don’t be a little bitch just cause you see me crying.

Facts.

Diet culture is hilarious and rad actually

[redpandarascal]

rethink your weekend. Harder liquor on an emptier stomach is just what you need. Trust me, I’m a doctor.

[pottsess]

I have empirical evidence to back this claim.

[fridayiminlovemp3]

I’m full of rage but in a very chill and nonchalant way

[pottsess]

In accordance to my blood alcohol level

[pottsess]

Growing up, I was a skinny flat chested girl.

On top of the media telling me what was beautiful, my best friend had DDs with a perfect body.

It took me until my late twenties to recognize my body as beautiful and desirable.

I look back on photos of me, I was gorgeous. But the whole time I focused on what I didn’t have which was giant tits.

Literally the *only* thing missing.

Now I’m older and I am obsessed with giving compliments. I think it’s because of there was a me around to tell me I’m pretty and focus on my physical strengths I wouldn’t have wasted years of young beauty thinking I wasn’t enough.

I know yeah my brain smartness and kindness and blah blah blah but fuck that I live in the real world and being pretty has been the ultimate goal thanks to societal brainwashing.

I can accept I have fallen victim to the societal scam but… at least I’m cute.

[pottsess]

One time at band camp..

I was singing fall out boy in the dorms with my “best friend.”

She told me

It’s so cute how you’re tone deaf.

15 years later still won’t sing in public even though people compliment my voice.

[spelldealer]

so was no one was gonna tell me that the painting saturn devouring his son was found painted directly onto the walls of the artist’s home after he died and that it may not even be depicting the greek legend, that’s just the most common interpretation??????

[wizard0rb]

hello????

[cursed-and-haunted]

Not only was it painted on the wall of his house, it was painted on the wall of his dinning room.

Like imagine you go over to your boy's house for dinner and that's across from you while you eat. Like would you say something or just

[gayanese]

This is the painting is question by Francisco Goya. Not only was this painting found, but a series of 13 other disturbing pieces of art called his “Black Paintings”. At this point in Goya’s life he had lost his hearing (well most of it) and had moved into a villa where he became a recluse. This was directly after the Napoleonic wars. These paintings were never meant to be found. They were never commissioned and he solely made these for himself.

[breya-etherium-shaper]

This is where they think each of those paintings was placed in the house.

[autumngracy]

What in the goddamn...?

[kaylawaylaayla]

tumblr finding out about fucked up art history is so fun to watch

[pottsess]

Tumblr giving me Sims ideas…

[ohcoolnice]

No one is fucking talking about it but another black man was killed by the same police department that killed George Floyd they killed him 9 minutes after entering his apartment. No knock warrants are fucking bullshit. He was wrapped in his blanket he was innocent they had the wrong address there is body can cottage you cannot fucking deny this bullshit.

This is being hushed up and covered up and I cannot believe it took me until TODAY, SIX DAYS AFTER IT HAPPENED to find out about it.

Everyone should be talking about this shit.

All the BLM protests and here we are again. We cannot let a single one of these slide because that's how nothing changes and that's how innocent people are being killed at the hands of assholes who are happy to pull the trigger without hesitation. I'm so fucking upset right now and so should you be.

[pottsess]

What’s really crazy to me is I had a no knock raid at my house. Police surrounded the home and they even brought in a helicopter. Over a drug bust.

The house had several people in it, all white, and cops came in unannounced putting guns in our faces. We all subdued, one tried to run but was caught.

Not once did I think “they are going to kill me.” Or something similar about a friend who tried to book it.

Even with my dog barking at them, we were all just pinned down, cuffed, and moved to the couch by the SWAT team without violence.

When something like this happens to a person of color, a lot of people will bring up questions on whether or not they were guilty.

This happened and it wasn’t even the right address. Like what the actual little chicken shit fuck?

No one died or feared for their life in my situation when they had the right door to bust down.

Definitely makes me grateful that this never happened to me, but also pisses me off because I know even when the police are being assholes they have the capability of not killing a person.

One person versus a raid, mine was a group of people against a raid and we all made it out unscathed.

Something has to happen. Things need to change.

[pottsess]

Gamer friends be like: it’s so cool you and your husband play games together

Honestly, it would be really hard to waist 6 hours a day on something and my husband be like wtf are you doing.

Instead he’s like, oh you’re warmed up to get sweaty?

[pottsess]

My husband and I free style rap together in an ironic way because we are terrible and lack the skill required for such an art.

We were playing overwatch and he absolutely carried the team.

So I said

I’m with a carrier

Not like an STD but like ATT where he carries me

TLDR; Suburban white rap at its finest.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

oh fuck yeah

[kissedbyflames]

i think casting unknown people is the best possible decision casting directors can make at this point like stop using the same five people in every film

[hypokeimena]

#i think movies should be like jury duty (via @sonechkaandthedynamos)

#Prev tag yeah!!! #Movies should be like the draft #You dont know how to act? Well you’re gonna learn (via @bogfox)

[pottsess]

A less costly solution to making film more diverse and dreams achievable.
