This is fucking embarrassing ‘journalism’ from the BBC.
Guy goes to an NHS doctor, flat-out states the nature of his investigation and gets behind the scenes information on assessments.
Then he hits up three private clinics actively looking for an ADHD diagnosis, has his friends fill out witness forms, and is shocked when he receives a diagnosis.
An utter disgrace.
Turns out, if you go and lie about your symptoms, they’ll diagnose you.
Consider me fucking shocked.
thank you, random white man, for this insight on the condition known to be underdiagnosed in women and people of color

Ha ha! But I've got to be honest here, I'm really not interested in looking at or interacting with any kind of fandom or creative AI. Like at all. No ChatGPT, no "talk to this character AI," no AI written fanfic, and certainly no AI art. I just hate it, and am generally not going to look at it or engage.

official boob post
Reading something on Reddit's "Hobby Drama" sub about a book that's very controversial/causing a lot of upset because (among other, much much worse things) the author so BLATANTLY and OBVIOUSLY was writing about people she actually knew and actual events that happened in their lives, and any changes made were typically unflattering ones. And all I can think of is Pyro's doubtlessly in-progress novels through the events of Alt-Marauders XDDD I still love that idea so much btw!!
Yes!!!!
Sebastian doesn’t care that villain Bastian Claw burns down an orphanage, then puts all the children to work on his whaling ship and pays them in hardtack and rum, but he is VERY OFFENDED by Bastian’s poor sense of fashion, “Allerdyce I would NOT wear that, you know better!”
Haven is actually the one who is most uncomfortable, because her obvious insert character is portrayed as a flawless, pure heroine who is always right, but she doesn’t really know how to broach the topic with Pyro and doesn’t want to hurt his feelings.
OK OK I know it looks like Sam wouldn't win but have people considered
A) Sam can wield mjolnir:

B) Sam can always seduce his way out of this if he has to - he is canonically Thor bait:

GUYS I JUST SAW THIS ON TWITTER AND I AM DYING
Add the author’s reply, cowards!
I scrolled through the notes on this post and my favorite has to be one mockingly accusing Madeline Miller (a Latin and Greek teacher with a Masters in Classics) of needing to do research and she wasn’t a real writer like them.
Anyway when I read that line I immediately understood what she was trying to say.
Articles mentioned (I think, anyway…)
Honestly, the first time I saw this tweet, I laughed my tits straight into the ocean.
I know what ‘olive skinned’ (and thus variations on it) means, but the author taking the time to have a little laugh, acknowledge that it’s at least a bit funny, and drop some knowledge is appreciated.
And a double thanks to the person I reblogged from for linking the articles.
The thread is perfect as it is, but just in case
Left: traditional extraction using a capacho basket, right modern extraction using a cold press. One is greenish brown and the other is green.
In case you want to see what the author meant about that not beeing what she saw.
So there's a probably a universe where Pyro and Human Torch are friends. And I feel like they would set the world ablaze with their stupidity. And I mean that in the literal sense and for there to be actual flames!
Hmmm maybe if John Grey aka Sunspot is there the world could still be saved.
Boy if your name is John and you can burn shit......
The only time I've seen Pyro and Human Torch interact is a Spiderman comic (that I think is not canon to 616, it's some kind of Marvel Adventures things) where Pyro attacks Human Torch out of jealousy for Human Torch being such a beloved hero, even though they both do fire stuff. (Hey, St. John, it's because you rob banks and stuff, buddy). He seemed like an angsty, younger Pyro, and the whole thing was hilarious.
Sadly, we didn't get any Pyro/Torch interaction in FF vs. X-Men, even though they were both RIGHT THERE, ready for a fun fire battle.
I could see them being buddies if Pyro wasn't a bad guy, although I think they would also be constantly trying to one-up each other. They'd need Iceman to cool things down and save the world from two blond, flaming idiots named John.
I have no idea who you mean by John Grey. A google search just showed him as Jean's father, and the only Sunspot I know of is Roberto Dacosta.

John Grey aka Sunspot New exiles
One of those gender bend on comics.
Ah, okay. I haven't read New Exiles, should probably get on that some time.
i drew this for the pose and then I was thinking it would be cool to design some boxing posters for Nina and Deirdre before they started being henchwenches, because they have had a varied set of careers before settling on babysitter for an angry strand of cooked spaghetti
