some days you're the robot, some days you're the dog,

and other times you just happen to be a raccoon with a surplus ghetto blaster

I liked it as well, go watch it

If the Ukraine war has taught me anything, it's that you can drone people for a few hundred bucks now.

Learn to hack, learn to quadcopter

Like, get really into FPV racing or something, of course

someone needs to inspire Musk to build a hospital bed with a couple of industrial robot Cyber arms for accommodation and cyber care

if we also get him to test it on himself, I'm sure we can get this midgley to midgley himself in half

that's very interesting so far, thanks so much!

also, I didn't get a notification for this, are notifications busted or what?

Very useful, that's an interesting possible link there - Intuitively, I'd have guessed it the other way around, ie. RSD being a symptom of an excess of inhibition. Gonna let this ferment a bit, maybe come back to it. A heartfelt thanks to you for sharing your experience and hypotheses, it's super helpful - and I'm sure not just - to me

I can talk about how I have managed my own experience of RSD, why I am convinced that it exists, and how I have responded to treating it if anyone is interested.

please do, I'm very interested. When I first heard about RSD, all the lights went on in my head, it explained so much of my social inhibitions, my reluctance to talk to people and just general anxiety when meeting strangers - especially when I found them interesting in some way. Until then, I thought everyone was deathly afraid of these things and everyone else was just way braver than me.

Understanding some of these connections has already helped me a lot, but I'm sure you've got some interesting, more in-depth things to say about it all - if you feel like it, please do elaborate

hey, genuinely thanks for your answers, lot's to think about

I start every day with a medium amount of coffee, tobacco and weed and a few hours later I even end up eating something. I feel like I'm often both under- and overstimulated with different things at the same time when sober, and a steady consumption of tobacco and cannabis throughout the day sort of modulates it out to where the world isn't just bearable but wonderfully interesting, enchantingly complex, vibrant in color and sound without being overbearing - the opposite of the hopelessly boring, grey-as-concrete noisescape that it often appears to me when sober. It's not like I don't have sober days, but I try to avoid them when I can... I hear you on the 'prone to addiction', it's why I'm trying to understand it all a bit better. What it's doing for me, where the pitfalls lie, etc. Pretty sure the tobacco is the most dangerous substance in the mix - interestingly, I usually don't fall back on pure tobacco when I can't smoke weed with it, which is a common thing I see with other enjoyers of the good herb; they might stop smoking weed, but they'll continue smoking, being hooked on the nicotine.

Anyways, bit rambly there, thanks again and cheers

very illuminating post, thanks for all of it.

I'm trying to understand my weed consumption better, and how it might be related to my a(u?)dhd. I've heard many with adhd self-medicate with weed for the stimulation, is that right? Have you written about weed and audhd before or do you have any resources you think are worthwhile? It just doesn't seem to have the same effect with me than with more allistic people, or at least it seems that way to me - and I'm curious about the connection there, if there is any; especially the differences in adhd+weed and audhd+weed.

If you have any experiences or third-hand knowledge to share there, I'd be greatly appreciative. If not, that's fine too, I've learned a lot already from your posts; so thank you again.

you can fit way more stairs this way

Last of Us was good
Halo is generally pretty well received, though I felt it was sorta mid (but enjoyable enough, I guess)

this just reminded me, amazon is still doing that Disco Elysium show I believe
