I don’t know about them but I’m not even regularly intelligent.

Only noticeble side effect is I’m less hungry which is fine because i like to intermittent fast anyways.

Same here and I love it. It makes intermittent fasting so easy but it also doesn’t stop me from eating. I just don’t get hungry every 30 min anymore. My psych was telling me how loss of appetite could be a symptom that I need to keep an eye on and I was just like “Doc, I’m over 270 lbs. I could do with a reduced appetite.” Sure enough I’ve been losing slightly over 1lb per week with no real effort and I’m still eating at least one full meal per day and usually two.

I only recently got diagnosed with ADHD as well and I 100% feel you.

I got through highschool with a C average because I aced all my tests and did no homework. I flunked out of college because I would frequently get to campus and then be stuck sitting in my vehicle unable to make myself actually get out and go to class. I got diagnosed with depression and spent the next decade cycling through various antidepressants that sometimes seemed to do something but never actually fixed what was wrong with me. I talked to my gen prac about if it could be ADHD and he shot me down immediately. I tried to get in to see a psych but everywhere was so booked up that I couldn’t even get on a waiting list. I went bankrupt, nearly lost my house, and only kept my job through some miracle because some years I missed more work days than I actually worked. I had no social life. I was a hermit and only refrained from serving myself the Kurt Cobain breakfast special because my mom would be sad.

Then one day about 3 months ago my only remaining friend said that their psychiatrist had openings and I got in there. I took one test and he said I definitely have ADHD. I got put on aderall and immediately everything clicked into place. I could think. My brain stopped perpetually screaming incoherently at me. I could actually make myself do things. If there was something I needed to do then I could just go and do it without sitting there locked up for hours telling myself that I need to do it and doing nothing. I could go to work. I could talk to people. I could begin organizing the disaster I had turned my life into, plan a way out, and actually follow through on that plan. I’m applying for new real jobs. I’m grooming myself. I’m paying my bills. I’m ~working on~ socializing. I’m losing weight. I’m eating healthier. I’m getting hobbies as my still limited income allows. I can actually live my life. It is exhilarating and depressing at the same time because like you said, where would I be if I had actually been treated a decade ago? Where would I be if I hadn’t spent the past 10 years sabotaging myself? There’s the exhilaration of finally being free but I’m also mourning the loss of what could have been.

Now I’m in the process of going off the antidepressants I had most recently been on to see how I do just on the adderall and even in the middle of withdrawls I feel far better than I ever had in close to a decade. Yes I was depressed but that depression was because I looked around me and saw people succeeding where for me even the simplest tasks felt like trying to drag myself through a pile of broken glass. As soon as I was able to actually function and meet my own expectations of myself that depression seems to have vanished.

You can fly with a gun in the US as long as it is in a checked bag. As long as it was in her checked bag and stored properly then the TSA has no reason to care. It was on her to know what is and isn’t allowed at her destination.

This is definitely someone who shouldn’t be allowed to own a gun. If you pull a gun on an assailant and refuse to shoot, then congratulations, you’ve just armed your assailant. You never pull a gun on anyone or anything unless you are planning to shoot it. What an absolute moron. They give clowns a bad name.

You can get caffenated water; I’m sure it would carbonate just as well as regular water.

That’s kind of where I’m at right now. He is the best person to be working a bad job.

As far as the higher power coming down and fixing things, I am hoping for that. That higher power being our government. The only way things are going to improve is with proper oversight and accountability which can’t come from within. As it is the rotten system isn’t going to un-rot itself. The few decent cops out there are more likely to be fired for it than to change anything. The change needs to be forced upon them from the outside.

But this guy has an ivy league education in computer science and business. He should know exactly how much information he gives away online and where it goes. I’m guessing he just didn’t really care much about being caught in the first place. If I was him I would have gone into it expecting to be caught eventually. Getting away with it would be nice but not the expected outcome. If you’re expecting to get caught anyways you aren’t going to put terribly much effort into completely covering all your tracks.

Clean bathrooms? Every mcds Ive ever used the bathroom in was because it was an emergency and they always look like a warzone.

Yes, but you always BCC large groups like that to prevent reply-all disasters.

Yes, but building codes and city ordinances still apply. Owning the property doesn’t just exempt you from laws.

To be fair, if you cherry pick threads then you can find some pretty wild stuff on .world too. People also like to cherry pick stuff for things like “sjw fail” videos all the time as well and those things aren’t indicative of the whole community.

Exactly, overall it sounds like a great law to have on the books because fuck ads. But there are going to be edge cases like this. In this case the mural obviously shouldn’t be considered an ad but that needs to be decided on a case by case basis in court which it sounds like is what is happening.

The law limits the size of advertizing displays. If the mural is considered an ad then it is too large. Over all it’s probably a good law to have because nobody likes when the entire town is plastered with billboards, but there are going to be edge cases like this where it doesn’t make sense.

Cows also tend to be very curious. If you walk into a pasture and start doing something weird then most of the cows will usually run over to see what you’re doing.

It could have just been a person running through the woods and the cows were running after them to see where they were going.

Adopt the night shift lifestyle and just get blackout curtains. It’s so worth it. If you want to go the extra mile you can also aluminum foil your windows so you block all the light plus look like a nutter.

I’m always confused when this crap happens. How can a court even block a strike? It isn’t like they can force people to go to work. If they decided to just not show up for work anyways what would the court do?

I’m on dbzer0 which is federated with hexbear and I honestly haven’t noticed anything bad from there. I always heard horor stories about it before I signed up here but it has actually been remarkably tame. I mean, they’re obviously leftist but I’ve seen far far worse tankie shit from just lemmy.ml.

Y’all ever wanted to drop a log of piss? Then heres the product for you.
