I would watch this soap opera.
Zombie Feynman literally addressed that exact point!
Be good to you, friend. Hope we cross paths elsewhere.
Semaglutide was approved for weight loss in 2021. An increase of more than 15-fold from back when it was only used for type 2 diabetes (and keep in mind, it was only approved for that in 2017) is the sort of thing you'd expect from a large-scale adoption of a new medication.
Now, on a personal level, I take Wegovy. I had been very slowly titrating my dosage and one week I thought, "how much could it possibly hurt to increase my dosage a little more this week and go a bit faster?"
...well. There's a reason I have a ton of Gas-X and antiemetics now.
I know! How enlightened and humble that answer was!
If you do have ADHD then I'll just hope your next hyper-focus is ADHD and it's impacts and methods to mitigate it. Good luck!
Frank Oz, who previously performed as Bert, stated Bert and Ernie were not gay, saying,
"They're not, of course, a gay couple. But why that question? Does it really matter? Why the need to define people as only gay? There's much more to a human being than just straightness or gayness."[17][18]Sesame Street went on to clarify further, stating:
"No, Bert and Ernie aren't gay - they're 'best friends'".[19]The Gaystar News reported that fans reacted negatively to this assertion. Frank Oz later tweeted in September 2018
A last thought: If Jim and I had created Bert and Ernie as gay characters they would be inauthentic, coming from two straight men. However, I have now learned that many view them as representative of a loving gay relationship. And that's pretty wonderful. Thanks for helping me understand.[20][21]
So, I would say they weren't intended that way from the start but only because the writers didn't think to do so. Frank Oz is a great reference for these things, and if he says "I love how you see them as representation" then that's good enough for me.
That's patently incorrect. Executive dysfunction, a hallmark of ADHD, often results in something called "task paralysis" wherein you're unable to begin a task, even though it weighs on your mind.
The advice that a person could be exhibiting this symptom because of a different cause (such as depression) is true, but people with ADHD experience this issue at a higher frequency than their more neurologically typical peers, and if it's a problem being caused by ADHD, and not depression, it can lead to depression as a comorbidity.
Out Cold, holy shit. What a deep cut.
And that thing where you're reading something, and you know you read the words, but none of them "stick" and now you have to re-read the whole thing to figure out where you got lost.
I'm in awe of the pylons.
