adhd, ableism
The flip side of the people who try and take your support away by claiming that ADHD isn’t real are the ADHD ‘advocates’ who say ‘people with ADHD aren’t disabled, it’s all society’s fault! The tasks that people with ADHD struggle with are just bullshit capitalist nonsense!’. Like, I’m aware that capitalist society is bullshit and discriminates against us, but blaming literally everything on society doesn’t help me deal with the pile of unwashed dishes lurking in my room, Brayden

cw your cis content nobody wants to see that
mh? probably adhd stuff (well, probably nothing. it's almost definitely adhd stuff)
nothing quite like asking if I turned on the oven; checking and finding out that no, I didn't; debating whether I actually want to use the oven; deciding that yes, I do; turning it on; then, some time later, forgetting whether I turned on the oven and asking if I turned on the oven. oh, how I love my brain /s
So, uh, off that demon shit. Well, not off the demon shit. It was a worthwhile venture in showing not just that we are *not* agender, but also in that we are kind of a demon. But, back to Kat, with a fun pun of a name to boot!
(is it a pun? play on words? silly portmanteau? not really sure)

What is 'a lot of work?'" (cw: late state capitalism) [1/4]
A burned out friend of mine said, after listing a huge list of accomplishments, "I have no concept of what is 'a lot of work'" - so I thought I'd help explain. 
"a lot of work" is what happens when you stop and think about the past 3 years of your life and you realize a lot of them are a blur because you spent so much of them furiously working the problems of multiple conflicting deadlines that a lot of it looks the same.

Bumper sticker: "If it ain't a cat, it's a dog."
Well, bumper stickers don't lie. Guess I'm a dog now. So are many (though definitely not all) of you!

Kimbleye Nonbinary people EXSIST and are RAD as FUCK
Meds
On the bright side, 30 150's are about $12, compared to 60 75's (an equivalent amount) at about $26. Plus, it's only one large pill instead of two kinda big pills. So, net positive?
Meds
So, when I started Effexor (XR), I was on a 37.5 mg ramp-up dose. I'm now on 150 mg. Let me show you the size of these pills. To the left, you can see Effexor, 37.5, 75, and 150 respectively. To the right, an Exedrin Migraine, a 325 mg round of paracetamol, and a Benadryl. Note how large the Effexor 150 is in comparison to everything else. These are fucking *huge*.

What happens when a person of color talking about racism says, "Don't tell me to CW this," and a white person does, in fact, tell them to CW it? Well, there's the obvious: A white person is disrespecting a person of color's boundaries in order to talk down to them.
But let's go subtler. What's happening in the mind of the white person who feels themself to be well-intentioned?
A collision of community norms. Many — not all!— people of color online feel that there is a tradeoff to be made between the urgency of a message and its potential triggers. When they and other people operating under those conventions interact, passing along information they may find upsetting because they judge it urgent, the system works as intended.
When someone whose etiquette system is CW-if-in-doubt sees this, it looks different. Perhaps like a violation! There's a clash of norms between different informal communities of use. For a really basic analogy, this is like seeing a photograph of a British car,

Some context on the "crisis actor" thing. That was in the account name that I blocked out. But, the account's been banned now, so, if it was a real person, the risk of exposing anything about them is now zero. So, yeah. Some bot named Crisis Actors.
Re: subtoot, but kinda silly and good (it's actually not so silly and good) (actually, it is quite silly)
Wait, *all events*?! *All* important people?! Actually, this one is quite very silly. Maybe it's not *that* bad
Re: subtoot, but kinda silly and good (it's actually not so silly and good)
I just realized that this one isn't quite as amusing as I thought. The "crisis actor" concept is actually kinda sorta very bad and dangerous. I'd like to think most of us here aren't ignorant, ill-informed, and/or gullible enough to fall for this, but it's still not as amusing because of that thing.
(The tie-in to the Illuminati is an interesting twist, though.)
