Sometimes, you want to start playing #videogames again for the first time since like 2019 and the ADHD hits so hard you gotta make a full graphic to assist people who might suggest new games to you.

Who has two thumbs and just bought tickets to finally go see @eve6.bsky.social live for the first time, even though this person has been a fan since 1998? (hint: it's me)

“Whitney, don’t drink rocks.” - something I literally had to say to myself last night.

MANAGER: I hope that's okay. 1. (Lie) No worries. 2. [Attack] You'll pay for this.

I put this to you, Bluesky: As a kid, all recipes were baked at 350 for an hour. Now everything is put in the oven at 425 for 25-35 minutes. Did we just get less scared about food poisoning, or did we realize we were making everything dry and tasteless?

Been having a lot of Thoughts and Feelings™ about my body between long-Covid, diabetes, chronic migraines, and having my appendix poison me and need emergency surgery to remove, and all of it happening in the last year (-migraines) means tbh I’ve felt kinda betrayed by my body and not sexy at all.

Woke up having aggravated the slipped disc in my lower back IN MY SLEEP. Few things make you feel older or more broken than waking up hurting when you didn't go to bed hurting.

I love my town. Philly spunk.

REAL TALK

I literally don't think I've ever owned a piece of red clothing that wasn't shoes -even in infancy- so the best I can do is offer a red lip.

"Send it to boarding school. Food babies ruin political aspirations." -me, ten years ago.

Person who’s been on BlueSky for 1 month: Howdy there newbies! Just a lil’ reminder- to be a rootin’ tootin’ poster you gotta oppose fascism in all yer skeets! Recent twitter migrant (quote tweeting): its time to consider suicide Australian who just heard that his son died: OHHHHHH NAAAAAAAUUURRRR

That women’s four-way match at Impact in Philly is some of the best wrestling I’ve ever seen live.

somebody on TikTok was trying to call a person androgynous and couldn’t come up with the word so they said this and I’m going to be thinking about it all morning

canned and tubed meats deserve more credit and shitting on them reflexively is probably rooted in a societal acceptance of classism

Posted a picture of my torn-up, painful cuticles with some talk about #adhd and #bfrb on FB and IG and as turns out: it's one of my most educational/informative posts ever?!? Glad I posted it, even if I was so embarrassed at the wretched state of my fingies I almost bailed out while drafting it.

update: they put the chair in a museum!! 😂🙌🤯

repost if u like round little tummies or if you think we should take back what’s ours with fire & blood

I love all the saucy posting and artistic lewds shared here but I've been having a very hard time feeling connected to -or attractive in- my body since all the medicine/diagnoses/chronic illness came to a head in November so I don't want to participate. :(

Real spicy brain day today

Note to the trans community: Please invite more trans men to BSky, there are so few of us and we already get forgotten about enough by the rest of the world, so it would be nice if our own community didn't do that too!

In today's Sensory Processing Moments™, our hero accidentally drops the chilled, juicy nectarine she's eating onto her bare skin and yells "OUCH" like she slammed her finger in the door because the cold, sticky, unexpected sensation was so overwhelming.

Thinking about how I have not been able to read the news without a trained nurse present to ensure I don't swallow my own tongue in... *checks notes* ...seven years.

There are a lot of things I love about Philadelphia but Cheez Whiz is NOT ONE OF THEM.

New London GIC location appoints controversial therapist as educational lead. Previously directed trainee psychiatrists to push parents towards conversion therapy resources.

The Enrichment Center regrets to inform you that this next test is impossible. Make no attempt to solve it.

What if I just think it’s funny when Trump gets indicted for crimes he’s definitely committed

"WE DON'T RESPECT HUSTLE CULTURE IN THIS HOUSE" - me, this morning.

My impulse spending $4 on a cup of coffee to fix an immediate problem turned into me spending $40 on an Lyft home a couple hours later which caused a whole other problem when I didn't have that money to spend on groceries.

The other day, I was out for a Dr.'s appointment and took public transportation and got there VERY early, but it was raining, so I went into a coffee shop and bought a coffee to have a place to sit for 40 minutes out of the rain, and didn't realize until later I had spent part of my bus fare home.

Envelope method/physical boundaries between spending categories have worked "best" in the past. Still, with poor credit, multiple bank accounts/credit cards to wall off spending isn't an option, and my bank is too far away to make frequent trips to withdraw/deposit cash on a routine basis.

Alright y'all: crowdsourcing budgeting tips/hacks/resources for someone with both #ADHD and terrible credit (ruined by an ex and still sorting out) because I've tried a lot of conventional methods and they don't work with me, and so much is digital that the envelope method isn't practical anymore.

Y’all are nuts for checking that site that shows who blocked you. That’s some arcane knowledge. That shit causes Sanity damage. One must simply imagine they are God’s specialest posting baby and post accordingly

You'd be forgiven for missing that Sinéad O'Connor passed away as a Muslima named Shuhada' Sadaqat, as almost all posted photos are from before her reverting & there's entire big media obituaries not using her chosen name even once. Innalillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon, Shuhada'.

#ADHD is hard. The last two months or so I have felt really not in control of my symptoms or, well, anything really. But there were not as many demonstrable reminders of that until I got into houseplants. It REALLY DOES NOT HELP the extreme negative self-talk/self-berating I’ve been doing. 😞

One time, my phone autocompleted the credit card number field of an e-commerce check-out form with “Hahahahahaha” instead of inserting literally any number at all. So, yeah, you can say I know a thing or two about being dunked on.

Just a reminder for myself and other #newskies: as you're creating a brand new social network for yourself, think on decolonizing your feed. Follow black and other POC voices, indigenous voices, trans and queer voices, disabled voices, neurodivergent voices, and so many other marginalized groups.

“Four or five years and my life is still begging and whining all day until I get just one crumb of affection”

Today's song for the dog is by me, to the tune of What’s Up by the 4 Non Blondes: "Well I wake in the morning and I curl my toes, and I squeaky yawn, and mom boops my nose & I whimper all morning long: “PAY ATTENTION TO ME” And I cry cry cry cry-aye Cry, cry-aye & I cry: “hey, pay attention to me”

Everybody knows you can't have a doormat that says "Welcome" because that's how the vampires get in.

“My pants are falling down, but it’s too late in the day to start zipping up my pants.” - @lindseynelsen.bsky.social in October of 2018 with a whole-ass mood

Y’all I was diagnosed as diabetic six months ago and grocery shopping is STILL a huge fucking minefield. Why on earth would roasted sunflower seeds have corn syrup in them?!? I’m so tired of how much mental bandwidth every single thing I eat has to take now.

Fun fact: every time I want to write the word "dinosaur" I think of the way Mr. DNA pronounces it as a spelling guide.
