Step one on new phone for anyone with ADHD. Otherwise the social costs are too high

The most important thing is to protect your mental health so you can function and be resilient.
Being informed on the chaos of the world is far behind that in the priority list. The radius you can impact is tiny compared to the rest of the world and the constant feed of atrocities you get hit with every day. And you don’t have unlimited attention to spend. Focus on what’s around you and making that better. The rest is, for the most part, noise that you have no control over whatsoever.

They aren’t gonna charge me shit because the first one was so dull I only got halfway through it.

Yeah . We might be the first generation that’s objectively correct when we say things used to be better.

I was just gonna go with “Who gives a shit?” but you put it better.

Have you been weezin’ da juice?

I’m an American so I don’t understand why you haven’t just put a couple 30 round mags through the wall with your AR-15?

Why do you avoid them?

Patently
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t use them. Or screen protectors . I take good care of my devices, and my phone gets its own pocket always, so no scratches. I’ve only broken 1 phone in my life and it was only the back glass on an iPhone 4, which slipped off my motorcycle seat because that fucking phone was frictionless.
- Comment on Can't fathom it 4 weeks ago:
I don’t get hungry often, at least not the way I think normal people do. I usually go from ‘fine’ to ‘more than mildly queasy’ in a couple minutes, then I have to rush to find something to throw in my stomach. It’s like flipping a light switch. This usually only happens when I have some project I’m focusing on.

Yes it’s fucking sad I even had to put that disclaimer in there, because it’s not unthinkable anymore.
- Comment on The Horrifying Evolution of Air Travel (Standing only airplane tickets) 13:30 4 weeks ago:
Won’t happen unless the FAA itself gets dismantled. The list of common aviation events that would lead to significant injury in that scenario precludes it in any sane scenario. Clear air turbulence alone makes it untenable.

Pretty good opinion, NGL.

A game long enough that you die trying to finish watching it?
This is why I hate baseball.

Ok but what’s your medical opinion?
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 4 weeks ago:
I read something similar recently so I went to look it up. According to Donor Alliance:
“only 3 in 1,000 people pass away in a manner that allows for deceased organ donation”

I am fine with isolating myself from evil.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 5 weeks ago:
I do try. I actively boycott shitty companies (for 30 years and counting) and my list is long and swollen.
If more people took action on their principles our systems would be a lot less shitty.
Just because you can’t boycott everything doesn’t mean you should do nothing.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 5 weeks ago:
“Everything sucks so do nothing” is exactly how evil stays in power.
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 5 weeks ago:
The amount of people that donate organs is far lower than the need. We really ought to have an opt out system. Other people need your inside meat more than the embalmer does.
- Comment on ‘Alexa, what do you know about us?’ What I discovered when I asked Amazon to tell me everything my family’s smart speaker had heard 5 weeks ago:
I don’t really understand the authors point, if there even is one. They regale us with tales of how they wiretapped their family, but there is no lesson learned here. Don’t waste your time reading it like I did.

It is, except for the ones that come with built in APTs.

No you don’t.
- Comment on Did I just dream this? Wasn't some kind of Steam app available on PlayStation some time ago? 1 month ago:
There are some websites that say you can stream from your PC to your PS5 using Remote Play, but I’ve never tried it.
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 1 month ago:
No sweat, I see two replies! I wonder if he actually believed this any more than he believed anything else he spouted. I’m inclined to believe he’d say whatever makes him money.
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 1 month ago:
Did they re-use one of his actual speeches or was he just cast to play this character and read these lines? I haven’t seen the film yet.
- Comment on This was Alex Jones once 1 month ago:
I had also never heard of it. It is available on usenet. I will be viewing it in the near future!
