Can people without ADHD actually just choose to focus on something and then focus on that thing every time without being distracted by something else? They don’t have to put in continuous effort to sustain their focus on that one thing once they’ve chosen to focus on it? They don’t have to fight with their brain to do something that they want to do but can’t make themselves focus on?
I’m genuinely shocked… I didn’t know people could do that.
the concept of movie marathons is genuinely bewildering to me. watching ONE movie already takes up all of my focus energy so how the hell does one possibly decide that watching more than one in one sitting is a good idea. plus, if i’m not even able to pause that approx. 120 min of brain hell….. count me the fuck out
My favorite part of having ADHD is when you talk about it to someone and suddenly they become an expert and know more than you do about how it works
Like okay Kyle, manager of a cracker barrel, you’re right, you have bested me in knowledge of mental illness and you alone decide what is and isn’t actually adhd
Corvo, peering at the hole in the roof: you live like this? You moved here?
Daud, getting his copy of the Dunwall Archives from his bookshelf and opening to the relevant page: yes. You see, several months before the coup, I moved my whalers here, to occupy an overlooked yet strategic position opposite Dunwall Tower-
Corvo: no no you’re telling you CHOSE to move here?
Daud: well yes that’s what I’m trying to show you-
Corvo: as in you moved FROM someone else TO here? No-one forced you to come here? You weren’t running from, let’s say, another gang?
Daud, starting to get irritated when he can’t monologue uninterrupted: look I wouldn’t expect you to understand the business of being an assassin
Corvo, plonking his butt on Daud’s desk: my dude, I live in the attic of my building with the spiders, rats, and cockroaches, but YOU have a huge hole in your roof! In fact counting the number of crossbeams, your roof is 67 per cent MORE hole than roof. You TECHNICALLY live on a rooftop!
Daud: it was necessary to control this area of the river-
Corvo: I can see the Manor District from here.
Daud: the fighting between the gangs has been fierce and if it hadn’t been for us-
Corvo: oh would you look at that it’s raining whales and hagfish tonight! Not to worry, my friends and allies are undernearth COVER
Daud: I’ve been slowly pushing the witches and the overseers back from his location-
Corvo: I don’t have to worry about my daughter catching a chill and dying of pneumonia because I unlike SOME PEOPLE have a ROOF
Daud: I’ve encountered threats you’d only ever find in your nightmares
Corvo, scribbling on a scrap of paper: I am putting down in WRITING that if I come back and there are any whalers left I am ADOPTING them, Outsider’s sake
!!! CONTROVERSIAL OPINION INCOMING … WATCH OUT !!!
There could be trees on the moon and we just can’t see them with our telescopes. After all, how many telescopes were designed to look at trees?
Our eyes are very good at seeing trees, and I’ve seen the moon many times. Where would they be?
OK, maybe your eyes are good at seeing trees that you’ve seen, but the moon probably has trees that you haven’t seen. I mean, think about it. All the trees you’ve ever seen in your life are trees that you have seen… for all you know, you could be completely blind to trees that you haven’t seen
“Literally everyone in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is flagrantly bisexual because it’s set in Classical Greece and we wanted it to be historically accurate” is the funnest goddamn thing I’ve ever heard.
Once again guys, say it with me: adhd/add/c is a neurodevelopmental disorder that has serious effects on how your brain functions and how you process things. It is not just about daydreaming or getting rambunctious in class in elementary school.
if u don’t think ADHD children are at a higher risk of abuse than non ADHD children, just go into any ADHD space on the internet and wait five minutes for some assfart to say “lol Ay Dee Dee isn’t real, it’s just a lack of hard discipline from parents!!!! i just hit and screamed at my diagnosed kid until he shaped up and now he’s docile as a lamb”
