@carcinopithecus if porn is any metric to go by, then everyone aged 27 or younger is a teen and everyone older than that is an *ILF

Love it when Anglos go "<written word with no indication how it's pronounced> is pronounced <different written word with no indication how it's pronounced>"

@clacke @hackbyte yeah, whatever, I don't like the way the author used the word in the context of the whole article because she is condescending, gatekeeping, and talking over people who have ADHD the whole time. Imho the attitude that you have to suffer "at least this much" before you can get a diagnosis is very harmful

trying a light theme on mastodon for the first time and I have legitimate trouble parsing what's going on

There is this fundamental problem with light and dark themes where a lot more effort gets put into one over the other
On mastodon for example, everything is just a plain white background on the light theme. There are different shades of dark grayish blue in the dark theme, at least I think so??

@hackbyte link to the source is further down in the thread.
I'd argue that ADHD is still underdiagnosed, not overdiagnosed. There are studies that suggest seven percent of the population have ADHD brains, and nowhere near seven percent of people have that diagnosis or undergo treatment. This article is just one instance of a larger structural problem.

I bet she also thinks social media has caused a "trans epidemic" or some shit like that

"hahaha don't we all have a little bit of ADHD" GO FUCK YOURSELF

"drugs are bad mmmkay"put on your fucking clown shoes

ADHD IS NOT A DISEASE
We are """impaired""" only because education and wage labor are garbage
And because people like you are actively doing medical gatekeeping that stands in the way of us getting proper treatment for our problems

Hoo boy I sure am enjoying all these ADHD benefits. I love telling my university and my employers that I have ADHD, which without fail results in them giving me reduced responsibilities

I am about to "impair" the "development" of the author of this shit ass article

Does this person live in the same universe as I do?

let's see. She calls people with ADHD "privileged" and "developmentally impaired" in the same article. She also says that lots of people relate to ADHD content online and also there is a potential profit for the medical industry in many people being diagnosed with ADHD. Ergo... what? Ergo the condition doesn't exist?

again. What FUCKING universe do you live in

remember kids: if you saw people talk about living with ADHD online, and went "hmm I have a lot of those same problems" and then went and did a diagnosis, that diagnosis is not valid. Why? Because some butthole from the guardian said so

actual programmers have discovered this post

if I was a programmer I would simply make a program without any vulnerabilities or backdoors so that the program doesn't need to be updated and can be used forever
