As someone who has mispronounced so many words because I never actually heard them. I appreciate this post
“I hate the Police” 💀💀
HELLO FELLOW CRIMINALS. I LIKE DOING CRIME. WHERE DO ALL OF YOU DO YOUR CRIMES? HOW MANY CRIMES DO YOU ON A REGULAR BASIS? ARE YOU PLANNING ANY CURRENT CRIMES? I AM NOT A COP

moment of silence for everyone who relied on AI chat bots for research when it’s going around saying shit like this.
[image description: search that reads “country in africa that starts with K”. the featured snipped is from www.emergentmind.com and reads “While there are 54 recognized countries in Africa, none of them begin with the letter "K". The closest is Kenya, which starts with a "K" sound, but is actually spelled with a "K" sound. It's always interesting to learn new trivia facts like this.” /end ID]
David Cleary!
i'm in Ireland and the search for that bastards name is still blocked and hidden... the legnths the british go to defend and protect their instruments of colonialism and violence is beyond belief. no justice for the victims and yet every measure taken to protect David James Cleary and his fellow murderers.
Never a better time for the Streisand Effect than when it's a government covering up acts of brutality and evil.
holy fuck okay so like. i grew up in northern ireland and finally seeing the context to this is WILD.
towns at a point used to fly banners that said ‘protect Soldier F’ on them. I, and I’m sure many others, were never told what this meant. It was very much a ‘don’t talk about it’ scenario.
the fact that i grew up in that bastarding country and I am only learning this NOW at the ripe age of 22, and I no longer even live there, speaks volumes on how much they try to cover this shit up.
Sorry if it’s a little cramped- had to make this all fit in ten photos. Hope you guys like it….. and again…. sorry Andrew

I haven’t seen this in years and yet it is burned into my memory forever.
This entire article is eye-opening, even as someone who has ADHD and has read a lot about it already. There's so much more there than just the bit about the glucose-craving brain. SO. MUCH.
This might have been the bit that hit me hardest, actually:
it would be easy to misinterpret the following scenario as a standoff between two partners: Imagine that your partner asks you to pay the electric bill, and you say to yourself, “OK, I have time to do that today.” But when you sit down to do it, you keep getting distracted. The ADHD brain needs higher stimulation in order to complete this rote task with minimal payoff. Your ADHD brain says, “That task is way too boring, and I refuse to focus on it. Find something that interests me more, which offers me a bigger dopamine reward, and I’ll work with you.” It doesn’t matter that you know you should pay the bill as promised; if your brain won’t engage, it’s an ugly standoff. Perhaps, after a day of procrastination — when your partner will be home in 20 minutes and the bill is still unpaid — there may be enough of an adrenaline rush from a sense of crisis that your brain will engage and you pay the bill.
The ADHD brain and its owner are at odds with one another. It’s difficult to compel a disengaged brain to engage by force of will. In fact, much of the treatment for ADHD involves learning to psych out the brain, so that it will attend to necessary, low-stimulation tasks.
Appreciating the tug-of-war within that pits intellect against neurobiology increases compassion and acceptance for one’s hidden struggle.
I feel SEEN. OTZ
Seriously, though. Read the whole thing. It's a good one.
Add to this that it's not just that your brain says "I don't want to"- the prefrontal cortex literally shuts OFF.
