New #ADHD term: mnemonic trash - the empty container you leave out in plain sight to remind you to buy another one.

We all do this, right?

Nearly finished work for the week - have a couple of admin tasks which I can complete here and then I am done. BUT on arriving home I realised the rattle I heard when I got out the van was not a random bit of rubbish on the tarmac but the lid of my *new* water bottle.
So, now, I have to go back. 😭

If you are autistic, ADHD, and/or neurodivergent and start a sensory store business, let me know.

Back in 2020-2021, I interviewed autistic entrepreneurs for The Autistic Innovator autism blog once a month.

So I want to do that again, just with sensory industry businesses only.

The predators need to be replaced, but there is no one to replace them with. Our community taking over the sensory industry is their worst nightmare, and it’s a nightmare that needs to come true. I am asking to interview my new competitors, but maybe with my backing behind a sensory store, we can clean up the industry faster.

I can’t even say take our industry back, because we’ve never had it in the first place, but we collectively need to take it from them.

Post by @scottygb.bsky.social: Channel 4 has announced documentary “The Great ADHD Myth?” It “seeks to determine whether ADHD is a genuine neurodevelopmental disorder, or a social construct.” “While traits of ADHD undeniably exist – the question is why they exist. Is ADHD actually a neurodevelopmental disorder? Do people with ADHD have differently wired brains? Or does our world – with…processed food, and regimented education – serve as the catalyst for certain…patterns of behaviour?”

'Isn't it normal to get a little bit distracted sometimes?'

This is why it seems like everyone has ADHD right now — including you

I know someone else is going to come on here and be like "I have #ADHD and..."

My dude (yes, I'm assuming this will be a male), my problems aren't your problems. Some people with EDS are wheelchair bound and others just can't play soccer.

ADHD is literally the only reason I'm not a millionaire. I could have used my skills to trade of FTC filings before that became common place except my severe inattentive ADHD doesn't let me work for money.

So many other horrid and ignorant things to add to this list, but this'll do for now. ❤️‍🩹🌻🦋♾️

So mal wieder die Instanz gewechselt. Immer noch auf der Suche nach meinem Zuhause. Vielleicht finde ich das hier.

Using #AI allowed me to write (a not very good) novel. Yes, I wrote it. Even if some of the words in the final version came through a stochastic process, I still wrote it.

I had never been able to do that before because my #ADHD produced unpassable barriers. Barriers to the writing process itself and project management barriers.

What I wrote was mostly human effort and in spite of being bad (because it was my first novel) was not slop.

Solutions To Problems.

The #AI argument kind of reminds me of arguments #SWERF #feminists have with sex workers. They state the harms without providing an alternative. Sex workers often are making orders of magnitude more than they would in an alternative profession.

AI solves an enormous amount of #ADHD related problems for me. It also acts as a legal aid. It allowed me to flee #fascism in the #USA.

The idea that "AI is useless" is so often repeated in anti-AI rhetoric...

@biped808 thank you for boosting another one of my undiagnosed #ADHD #sketching / #drawing 😁

Finally got over myself and some denial and internalised ableisim about the fact I'm AuDHD, not just Autistic. Alright then. Onward!😁

A fantastic reminder for those of us who are neurodivergent. Do what you need to make it an easier experience.

I was just about to take care of some important government paperwork. An hour later, I know all about the phenomenon where children sometimes start out writing words in mirror writing, what this suggests about adults, and that Leonardo da Vinci, as a left-hander, wrote nearly all of his notes in mirror writing.

Well, good morning, my sweet, sweet, hypercurious mind. 😘

Announcement: #Voxelibre multiplayer casual game today (Sat) for 4 hours in the late afternoon to evening (North America). That's in about 5.25 hours from now.

Voxelibre is a free and #OpenSource #Minecraft clone. More details here: https://docs.autis.toque.im/

Damage has been turned off. People with #Autism, #ADHD or #AuDHD are invited.

This week, we have some map contributions from @Catwoman69y2k . Much appreciated! The 1st map shows where the "Origin" is (the crosshairs; the point where one first "spawns"). The "Owl" region has the most buildings (there's more than what is labelled) and train tracks connecting everything. The second map is the "Owl" region zoomed in. Train tracks connect each place shown. Vast regions still remain unexplored, and boating around is recommended to do that exploring (eg. bring a friend and boat together).

I am so happy and grateful because I successfully fixed the wobbly headset of my folding bycycle.

Other than typing and writing, I always found it hard to use my hand for creative activity.

But somehow, for a reason I do not comprehend, I am getting better with my hands.

@mle Please do! And congrats. Mine didn’t start sleeping through the night until they were 2 🫩 #ADHD

I don't *want* to put clothes on or go to run errands. Blah.
