Hello friends - I wrote about why it’s so hard to clean/tidy when you have ADHD. And why folks need to judge those with messy homes less. www.kidspot.com.au/parenting/tw...

For yrs I’ve been saying free speech absolutism is a type of extremism. Ironically it’s ONLY really about protecting the speech of those who peddle hate. For everyone else, we can shut up. ‘Words Federal Agencies Are Discouraged From Using Under Trump’ www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

isn’t amazing that the free speech absolutists are the most fragile about speech of all? They’re only interested in their own freedom to peddle hate…not the freedom of others to reply.

Honestly all these folks harping about quitting drinking and sugar and gluten...doesn't it make you just want to gorge yourself on that stuff? Love to know why it's so important for everyone to tell others not only what to do, but to do it LIKE THEM. Shhhhhhh. Live & let live.

Hi @stephenking.bsky.social Thanks for your book about writing. I was paralyzed by some family, health and financial issues and I just couldn’t get my second book done. Listened to your book for the second time 🔥 Especially love the bit about outrunning self-doubt. I’m at 92k words now.

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.” Absurd we still need to go through this 🧪👩‍🔬

In movies, a superhero arrives around now. In the absence of that happening, I am willing to coordinate a global army of middle aged women to sort everything out. We have a lot of rage. And also combat trousers from the 90s.

Today I paid $500 for my next ADHD psychiatrist’s appointment and interim script. This is a lot of money for me. And I’m wondering how folks afford this? So many people must be going without meds and care…
