Drone kink in itself is a medication for ADHD in my opinion. Finding a mental space to let go of your thoughts and worries is the thing to aim for in that practice. No need for sex in it, nor any gear (although it helps) and also no unique way to do it Be a drone. Be less you to be more you ✨

If you use the transit early in the morning, midday, or at night, you should let your IL representative know that they should fund the #public #transit. “We may need to eliminate midday, late night or early morning or overnight service,”says the CTA acting president. #Metra #PACE #Chicago
