HE’S STEALING THE BROWN
something no one told me until I got my actual eval for adhd was that—
okay so do you remember being a kid going through growth spurts and you just kept hitting your body parts on stuff as you moved through your day to day life cause you weren’t adjusted to your new size and the literal dimensions of your body yet so you kept misjudging distances from yourself and the environment around you?
—that feeling/perception of just being totally unable to judge your own body in relation to your surroundings as you move through space is something that (some! not all) folks with adhd experience all the time their whole lives.
that’s why, if you have adhd, you might often end up with bruises in random places you don’t remember getting, or people perceive you as clumsy, or you find yourself constantly apologizing as you move through a space due to accidentally bumping into people
like not only does it impact our short term memory and our ability to perceive and predict the passage of time accurately, but it also impacts our ability to perceive the boundaries of our own bodies and the boundaries of other things in our environment. I wonder if this difference in perception is related to the common adhd trait of fidgeting, leg bouncing, stimming, etc. like it’s a way to sort of ground yourself/remind you of the physical reality of your body, or like a way to interact with the movement of your body in the environment in a contained and controlled way.
the more I learn about the neurological effects that are currently grouped by the term “adhd” the more frustrated I am that we are using “adhd” to refer to this experience. like is it a deficit of attention or is it really an inability to maintain short term memory and therefore be unable to hold the long list of related tasks together long enough to complete the entire responsibility? is it really hyperactivity or is it an inability to perceive the physical boundaries between the self and everything else in a way that develops naturally to others?
YOOOOO Springtrap in the fnaf movie looks SO GOOD!!!

Why do we say that capitalism must be “dismantled”?
You’ll hear phrases like “Smash the state!” “Eat the rich!” and “Smash capitalism!”
And, yes, of course, but… :)
However relevant those sayings are, our work must be careful, highly organized and above all planned.
Because capitalism and all of its associated systems are not discrete, abstracted entities we can attack independently.
It is a structure, like a complicated machine with many thousands of working parts…
And right now it is connected to absolutely everything.
If we do this… [picks up huge hammer and smashes the machine]
Then a lot of vulnerable people will die.
The machine was built and improved and redesigned and patched over the course of generations. It is very good at its intended purpose, which is ultimately to generate profit.
Every human being alive today relies on the byproducts of the machine to survive, without exception.
The machine’s engineers want it to keep working like it does. In fact, they want to optimise it.
That will kill all remaining life on Earth.
So, we must destroy the machine, quickly and carefully
We must examine its deadly programs and mechanics and replace them with alternatives we built together.
The engineers don’t want us tampering with the machine.
However, we make it run…
So we can make it STOP. Together.
How will YOU help us to safely dismantle the machine?

It is actually way better for 100 addicts to get their fix on pain pills than a single person in pain go without. I call this the "Torture is bad" principle. You should be able to get the good stuff forever after a single doctor's visit. If you're worried about addicts fund rehab centers and needle exchanges instead of torturing people.
