just me
to fill out the something somethings for the unaware audience -
if you get something into your bum fully, it's very hard to get out on your own without hurting yourself, and your ass can suck that thing in in a second - so unless you're an avid fan of going to a doctor to get something out of your butt, the object you're penetrating yourself with has to have a flared base - that is a base at the bottom of the object much wider than what your ass can suck in, which will stop the thing from sliding in
honestly i don't mind a bit of dirt with a touch of poop. if i myself pluck a carrot out of the ground - i'll just wash it a bit and proceed to chomp
what i do mind is the number of hands and various containers the carrot goes through before it gets bought by me at a store. theoretically, nobody has to touch a carrot for it to appear in the store (harvested mechanically, transported in large quantities, thrown out of a box onto the store display), sure, but i'm not counting on that, nor am i counting on the fact they wash their hands properly
well maybe for you that's not enough justification. but others care about other people
recently i found a comedian who does sketches that give me strong llamas with hats vibes.
she has a youtube channel, instagram, and tiktok so pick your poison - It's a me, Silvia
here's a link to the one sketch that just radiates with Carl's energy
i feel like that depends on the vibes, if the robber is giving "my first robbery" vibes then a bigger toothpick it is. if they aren't then give them the money
i'm saying this because it sounds like a lot of work having to then explain everything to your boss, police, friends who want to know etc
on one hand if you take the character of jesus as an individual with opinions he was very based
but on the other hand in the context of the bible - he is the incarnation-ish-thingy of the one who created and perpetuates a binary system of good and evil, and as a narcissistic judge, jury, and executioner to him being "good" includes in major part worshipping him and only him. which is not very based
so i pick hell out of spite
the state as an idea is bad yes i agree. but there are better and worse states, and if i have to live in a state because us anarchists can't organsie well enough to create a state-less society, then i'd rather live in a better state rather than a bad one
in a way i think yes. in the dark ages at least any insane cults and ideas couldn't spread far. if your village or castle happened to have dark ages version of ben shapiro then his words aren't going to go far (unless they infected the local ruler as well, and even then it'd still be contained within your area, or your country at worst). If you were on the receiving end of insanity you could always just kind of– pack up and move to another village, walk 30km away and you're like a new man! Worst case scenario find your way to a port, fuck off to another country - passports or border control did not exist, passage was often granted for free to those able bodied that joined the crew for the voyage.
obviously i'm romanticising here a bit, modern medicine and technology makes day to day life easier. but it also makes other things much harder. our privacy is going extinct at an alarming rate, freedom of movement across borders belongs to distant memories of our great grandparents, (unless you're french) your protests will be ignored and/or vilified, and if you dare care about other humans and speak up about it you can be labelled as a terrorist in some places
i do truly hope that those years of unrest aren't here to stay...
and by accident you went through the rite of passage of all photographers! welcome to the club :) now you'll carry 4 with you everywhere lol
that's so last year long video
in 2025 we watch *videos with days in the time counter
i think that's just all of lemmy at this point
anxiety & depression are common comorbidities so it still fits imo
idea: we do the whole leftist infighting thing after we win against the common enemy, deal?
i do wonder why trans children are their main target when the plastic surgery industry has many more people to bully
so you just assumed black people want you to do something, without ever asking or confirming if that's what they want because you don't want them to experience more "labour" and "harm".
That's the definition of white knighting, and is incredibly patronising. Do better
Also, you as a white american might not think that you have any meaningful culture, idc about that. But do not make blanket statments implying the entire race of white people have no culture because what?
it took me 3 different doctors to finally get a diagnosis. first two were neurotypical, the last one also had adhd himself. adhd is often misunderstood, and the metrics for diagnosing it completely ignore individuals that have figured out their own coping mechanisms or are more intelligent than most.
for example a big part of the diagnosis is a binary - did you have trouble at school? if you answer "well no i didn't, but i also never studied or did homework, everything was just kind of easy. the subjects i disliked went very poorly though. i still passed but my range of grades went from highest to lowest yet still passing. i had some trouble with higher education when i was expected to study on my own though, i got my degree but seemed to struggle much more than my peers" all the non-neurodivergent doctor (or god forbid, a test) will hear will be "well no"
obviously i don't know you personally, nor do i know what test you took or what doctor you went to. but if you still suspect you have adhd despite being told "nah" by one doctor, then i'd encourage you to seek a second opinion, ideally with a doctor who has adhd themself, so the diagnosis is a simple vibe check instead of mind numbing tests that only account for "well duh" kind of adhd
hi friend, it's not laziness - it's executive dysfunction. And it's quite difficult, thought not impossible, to work against.
Step one is realising that executive dysfunction isn't a choice - laziness is a choice, and it's supposed to feel good - if you feel guilty the entire time you're being "lazy" then that's not being lazy.
Step two is creating systems not habits to work against it. Us adhd folks either have a very hard time creating habits, or are incapable of creating them at all.
What do i mean when i say systems, not habits? i mean reflections & procedures that help you realise you're falling down an executive dysfunction hole, and then help you get out of it. The best metric i've found to understand how deep into that hole you are is figuing out how much guilt surrounds you - messy home, messy documents, unfinished projects, undone work etc. all those generate guilt, and the more guilty you feel the more overwhelemed you get.
Then you engage the systems that help you get out of it. Find your sources of energy that'll get you through cleaning and organising. For me exercise works best, even if it's just some stretching or light cardio (jumping jacks are the only thing that wakes me up when i'm tired for example lol). Address things one by one - first clean up your home, a passive source of guilt coming from your surroundings is going to be constantly dragging you down.
Once that's out the way get to work on your projects. Realise that you can't start at working 7h non-stop, but you can slowly work up your stamina for consecutive work. Push yourself to do a bit more every time, but not too hard or you'll start getting the burn out meter going up.
What helps a lot is doing things for another person or having a body-double there to keep yourself feeling accountable. Even as little as being in a discord call with another person working can get your in a mindset to do things.
And speaking of mindsets to do things - another tactic is to create task specific environments and or outfits that you associate with doing something. Going to a library to study, putting on an outfit to clean etc. You can do that digitally as well - perhaps have a seperate system account for programming and working, that'll help you keep the distractions just enough out of reach that on good days you'll easily choose continuing to work instead of video games or watching youtube.
Things i wrote above work for me, they might not work for you though. You'll need to discover and figure out what makes you tick. It might seem hard, and it can be, but it's very much worth it
bro, if we could edit the genes of foods to make them grow into huge sizes, i think we would hear from some scientific source that that's now a possibility
