Until really very recently, public awareness of ADHD was that it was a thing some kids have which makes them disruptive at school. It's not exactly a shock that now people understand there's more to it than that, more people have realised they have it and it has a huge impact on their lives.

This is the "high functioning"* AuDHD life. Hoping that I can build up enough good will with people so that when I collapse I have support. Hoping that I can go long enough between collapses to not exhaust how much people can support me.

This "white British people will be a minority" shite really gets at the core of the anxiety. They're furious because they see black people in Christmas adverts and brown people on the bus. It's that simple!

I had to explain to a Gen Z person today what a "Flowbee" is, so consider this a public service announcement. It was a home hair-cutting system you attached to a vacuum cleaner. It sucked the hair upright, cut it with attached blades & you controlled the length with attachments, as shown.

Remember the ultra-cool scene in the Matrix where Neo can dodge bullets? That's what it's like to be a HOUSE FLY. They defeat all attempts to swat them because they are 'The One': they're seeing your motion on a different time scale. Let's talk about how small animals perceive time differently.
