I got an adhd diagnosis last spring at 32. It took a telehealth appointment, and doing an electronic test on my laptop at home, with a followup appointment to go over the results and get the diagnosis. It mostly comes down to finding a decent provider. If you’re in Minnesota I’d be happy to recommend one.

Only 1,452 more days to go, assuming it stops in 4 years.

I think they were amphibians, not lizards!

When has cognitive dissonance and being contradictory stopped the right wing in the US?

You’re qualified to do tons of IT jobs in that case, unironically.

I had a rebranded clevo back in 2009. It worked great for a few years before the dedicated gpu died. It was a sleek design (especially for the time) too.

Yes exactly! I did every available side/companion quest that was available before progressing the main story, and when I ran out I’d do one main story quest and then back to side quests.

Previous games it felt like you got to do more things with each companion. This one there’s like one story each, and they’ll barely talk to you about anything else on the rare occasions you can talk to them.

Agreed on all points. I decided to do a full series playthrough after I finished, and aside from how action oriented the combat is, it really reminds me of DA2. It feels more like you’re playing the character of Rook, just like how you’re playing the character of Hawke. You don’t really have “evil” options, and are more railroaded because why the fuck would Varric recruit someone to be his number 2 that has evil tendencies? You’re not a blank slate nobody like your character in 1 and 3.

My biggest complaint is it feels like a lot of your companions don’t really talk to you that much. You get to know 1 part about them and that’s it, we needed more dialogue with them!

Mmwave is available on many more devices than just iPhones. Most flagship phones have it, including older ones like the Pixel 7 pro.

I wish!

Thanks Chief!

Hitler was also person of the year. It’s about the person’s scale of impact, not anything to do with competence or morality.

I’ve spent a significant amount of time every day considering if I should buy a gun and get a concealed carry permit. There are people attacking trans women in public while onlookers cheer.

I’m also worried about losing access to my hormone therapy and ADHD meds, and having the hospital (or insurance) I’m on a waiting list for surgery decide they’re not going to do trans healthcare anymore. Also worried that the federal government will outlaw legal gender transition.

I’ve considered trying to leave, but there aren’t really any countries that seem viable to go to that aren’t also actively passing anti-trans laws. My only marketable skill is IT, but I’ve only got an associates degree, no certifications, and I’m not specialized in any particular in demand area.

I’ve also lost the shred of faith in humanity I had left. I find myself wondering which is more likely: assuming 70+ million people are actually that malicious or if they just on average have the intelligence of a potato chip. I fear it’s probably both.

So yes, I suppose you could say it’s had an impact on my everyday mental health.

Be as obstructionist as the GOP has been for the last 30 years. Be loud, annoying, and refuse to compromise on human rights.

I’m dealing with a fair bit of this because my predecessor had the brilliant idea to put windows 11 on unsupported hardware (which I’m actively working on getting replaced). Every time I think I’ve found the last stupid thing they did, I find more janky shit like that.

I don’t think this only applies to physical comfort either. When I’m overly stressed by things outside, even if the weather is perfect, bed is still abnormally more comfortable.

God forbid someone enjoy building something for fun instead of profit. His designs are more art and exploring possibilities and less about making a product.

You’re correct.
