Pink Lemonade

30 trips around the sun and im still surprised when the days get shorter after a long summer like the nights already feel much cooler now and soon it'll be dark at 4 in the afternoon and i'll go wow man look how dark it is and it's only 4 and come spring ill realize that wow you can actually tell the days are getting longer and warmer isnt that crazy and in the summer i'll be lying in bed at 11 thinking woah it's still not dark out and then in september ill say to myself phew that sure was a long summer you can already tell the days are getting shorter and ill remember this post and maybe ill go look for it and reblog it and dear reader, i for one hope that we both live to see it

omg this made me emotional 😭

We named him after you we hope you don't mind

The cat did it better 😳

i need more of these

thinking about. plugboys. werewires, werewerewires, etcetera,

ive been thinking about this tweet for the past 2 days like literally nonstop

And here's a fountain full of floating watermelons

i think this mp4 has been missing from the sitecosystem too long

actually HE transitioned and now sells HEshells by the heashore.

Did you know that there's another Chocolate Guy called Kris Zhaokai?

every once in a while i learn some wild new piece of information that explains years of behavior and reminds me that i will never truly understand everything about my ridiculous adhd brain

ok what the fuck who was gonna tell me this isnt normal

what the fuck you mean to tell me that the way that i comically slide around things wasn't just me naturally shitposting

maybe the neurotypicals are just trolling us

THAT'S WHY I DO THAT?!?!?

it is in times like these that it is helpful to remember that all of medical science that isn't like, infectious disease, but PARTICULARLY psychiatry is a bunch of fake ass idiots who dont know how to do science, and when you hear about it on tiktok, it's being reinterpreted through somebody even dumber who is lying to you for clicks. as such you should treat anything they say as lies.

u do this wiggle because it's a normal thing to do.

anyways i looked at this paper. they stick people (n=32) on a wii balance board for 30 seconds and check how much the center of gravity moves. for AHDH patients, it's 44.4 ± 9.0 cm (1 sigma) and for non ADHD patients its 39.5 ± 7.2 cm (1 sigma)

so like. at best the effect size is 'wow. adhd people shift their weight, on average, a tiny bit more than non-adhd people, when told to stand still'.

in summary, don't trust tiktok, and:

^^^^

by "eyeball statistics" that's weak as hell. if you actually check the p-value with, like, welch's t-test you get p = 0.1 - not statistically significant at 0.05, which is a pretty low bar. if you think about it for like 5 seconds, you might remember that just about everyone walks like this when they're trying to go somewhere in a hurry.

especially for pop-sci around neurodivergence, and especially if your primary reaction is "that's so relatable!" or "I didn't realize that was only a <diagnosis> thing!" - and ESPECIALLY if that trait is something which would not be negatively impacting your life - I encourage you to take a sec to check whether there's any basis to it at all.

Thank you for these tags @pack-yr-romantic-mind

As has always been true but the OceanTemptingFate billionaire slushy sub has made patently obvious, BioShock could never happen because an underwater city built by an objectivist billionaire who hates regulations for being anti-capitalist would fucking implode way before it ever fell to capitalist infighting or people getting addicted to sea slug juice.

What about those who insist God is a Woman? Who's misgendering God? Is it Him? Or is it Her?

Spoopy Season Safety

Oh my god reblog to save a me thank you

Reblogging even though it's way past Halloween bc this is an important reminder!

Stay away from anything with charcoal during this season if you are on ANY medication!!!

I want to say one more thing as a cis person who experimented with labels over the years, questioned my gender, and ended up as cis after all. The trans community did not "indoctrinate" me. I had always been asking these questions, even as a little kid before I knew trans people even existed. Over the years, trans women gave me the courage to explore the femininity I wasted my youth denying, trans men taught me that manhood is what you make of it and that nobody could tell me how to define it, and nonbinary people taught me just how limitless my possibilities were. The only parts of my upbringing that left me "confused" about gender were the conservatives who imposed a vision of gender that my friends and I could not relate to. And when I realized trans identity wasn't something I could claim after all, the community loved me all the same. I am happier, and the world is more beautiful, because of trans people. The human impulse to create and survive isn't going anywhere, and neither are trans people.
