@gamingonlinux I run a small-time #Voxelibre server (a #Minecraft clone) with weekly meet-up (a window of only 4 hours/week), for the @ActuallyAutistic and #ADHD community (who are into #OpenSource). I have tons of fun doing this. I also post a few video clips and highlights each week.

I've been away editing & proof reading. But I'm happy to report that Countering the Hands of Crime is finished, and out today. It's got the intersection of #SciFi and #Fantasy setting, crime and mystery threads in the plot, and #aromantic, #asexual, autistic and #ADHD identity exploration subplots, I was hoping for. The found families turned out well too 😄

OK, project list.

1. Learn C++ [ongoing],

2. Organize & convert a thousand tabs of miscellaneous research I never sorted over the years, to pdfs [ongoing. Priority: 1],

3. Sort over 7 TB's of backups scattered across various scavenged SSD's & HDD's without having a solid place to store everything and sort from there [ongoing],

4. OptiPlex Hackintosh [paused],

5. LITERALLY DRIVE MYSELF INSANE trying to build a UEFI-supported BIOS image for a ThinkStation D20, knowing full well I'm nowhere near skilled enough to pull something like that off yet [not started],

6. Bunny robot [could be a fun break from the madness, but not started],

7. Learn Blender to make my custom #protogen model [paused because OpenGL 4.8 support doesn't exist for this machine apparently. Workaround is needed],

8. Hack into a Wi-Fi router I bought specifically for this purpose [paused, but sounds like fun. Priority Update: 2],

9. Protogen helmet with a built-in Pi 4 B or 5 that has multiboot EFI support [paused], and

10. Build my own Operating System with a similar design philosophy to Plan9 for the heck of it [surprisingly, started on the researching phase].

...and then comes the part of documenting my journey.

These notebooks are about to get a lot of use, granted I don't keep grappling with getting stuck to one screen all the time. -w-'

I’m (mostly?) autistic, and this really resonated with me.

I’m wondering if someone wrote something similar, but from the perspective of those of our ND tribe who are more strongly from the #ADHD

type?

I truly loathe the “Deficit & Disorder” acronyms for us. I would love having descriptions of our ways of being without the pathologic framing!

A friend of mine just told me: While standard brain walks into the room and picks up 10 things, we (#ADHD) tend to notice 50 or 100 of things.

So while for them it looks like we're not attentive for not noticing the spilled coffee on the table, our reality is that they seem to be functioning weird by not noticing the t-shirt that was intentionally left to be re-used, which means I really need to buy detergent, so I better collect the garbage that is under the sink, which needs ...

You know, not all of us have ADHD.

Some of us have plain old ADD. 🥲

Suddenly I'm wondering how many cases of cognitive or memory decline, or other psychological problems that were attributed to old age were in fact due to some form of neurodivergent (or possibly other) burnout, but weren't seen as such due to this not being well understood?

#ActuallyAutistic @autistics #neurodivergent #adhd

Hey all my neurodivergent peeps! This question came up in a Discord server i am in and i am wondering if the results here will be the same.

If you are any sort of neurodivergent, do you prefer programs and apps in dark mode or light mode?

🧠 "...studies have found that people with ADHD tend to be highly creative thinkers, who may find new ways of approaching a problem that others hadn't thought of.
"The difficulty with compartmentalization can also lead to more fluidity, and connection between ideas, and creativity and risk taking,"

Hey #ADHD #AuDHD #Autistic folks, so, while I'm not officially diagnosed with a specific neurodiversity yet, my therapist agrees there is definitely something there, probably in that area. I have been trying to chat with some older folks in my family about it and I sorta lack good resources or quizzes/quick assessment resources that could potentially help with breaching the subject with them, or helping in their own curiosity.

Are there any that folks recommend for good but easy reads?

Not being able to explain why I'm upset and then being upset about not being able to explain it.

That loop has been running for as long as I can remember.

Truquets que vaig trobant per no ser un putu desastre.
Perquè em consti que coi és el què estic fent, què em queda per fer i què he fet.
Així estem.
Per si serveix a algú.

Coses de #personesaltamentdisperses i #pensamentarborescent , unes característiques plenes d'avantatges però patològiques quan se'ns obliga a viure en un sistema per a una #neuronormativitat que és un invent.
