There are 2 #ADHD timescales:

1) Now, right now, immediately at the expense of everything else,

and

2) Never. What task? I have no idea what you are talking about

The thing about international chat groups and time zones, is that there is usually a middle-of-the-night friend around if you need one.

A lot of the internet is full of shite, but this is the best thing about it I think. That and the pet pictures.

Ok.

I need good things.

Please, reply with good stuff. 🇧🇧

I am really struggling and need silly, delightful, joyful things to concentrate on.

Was in an online knit and natter group yesterday where I got to explain the concept of thr fediverse.

People seemed fascinated by the idea. It'll be interesting to see if any of them decide to check it out.

Are there any knitting/yarn/fibre arts related servers does anyone know?

HOW? Please reveal your secrets!!

Tiny Dog does this, and then jumps up and snuggles her head into my neck for cuddles.

I do not deserve her! I aspire to be the person she thinks I am!

We are fast approaching the anniversary of my brother and nephew's deaths.

So I am going to take this moment to ask you all if you have planned your escape route from your house in case of fire. Do the kids know the plan?

Is the battery working in your smoke alarm? Is there even a battery in your smoke alarm, or did the beeping annoy you?

What will you do if your stairs are alight?
If the grandkids are staying over, do they know the plan? Which adult is getting which child?

Where do you keep your house keys at night? Could you find them if there was smoke and fire?

Do you shut the kitchen door when you go to bed? That was what the fire brigade said would have made most difference for my family.

Do you turn electrical appliances off at the wall, especially the ones you bought from somewhere online?

Have you walked through your escape plan? You need muscle memory to kick in when the panic of an emergency situation hits.

Please, if you could think about these things and make changes if you need to it would mean that something good has come from our tragedy. I never want anyone else to have to go through this.

I firmly believe that all 14 year olds should surreptitiously be given Pratchett by someone that isn't a parent.

Especially if they live in a household where they have to hide it because it contains witches.

They are books that teach you how to think, even in the face of extreme authority.

This is my story. I would be a much worse person without having Pratchett books in my life.

Only on a UK Friday night. Then we let the computer people have it back later

Hello to my fellow ADHDers.

You know that glass of water you poured, then left on your desk?

This is a gentle reminder to go drink it

This post brought to you by my discovery of 3 glasses of water on my desk.

I was so tired in my therapy session today that I let unfiltered brain ideas out of my mouth.

Somewhat concerned I may have been too me.

It made him laugh and look alarmed at the same time so who knows

Morning !

May your appliances do exactly what you tell them to

May you always be treated the way you treat retail staff

Ok, can I have some follow recommendations please.

I wish to have silliness, humour and daftness on this account

Who do you recommend - who really makes you laugh, sigh and go "oh FFS" on a regular basis?

Please boost for more recommendations thank you
