I head up a small community for fans of a niche indie brand. The founder is doing an event in Japan with an exclusive item for people who attend! I was so excited and was looking into booking a plane ticket to go!

However.. turns out that Japan has a law that absolutely forbids stimulant medication in the country. And, no, I don't really want to upend my regimen of 8 years and risk going on a new medication for the trip.

I'm really shattered, as I wanted to attend this cool event and meet up with other enthusiasts. It really hurts to be barred from an opportunity like this.

I hate ADHD. I really do.

I hope not, people interested in philosophy usually understand at least the basic essentials of rhetoric.

It honestly appears that this fellow seems to think that wisdom is derived from the use of confusing syntax. Half of his rebuttals to me were written like they came from a Toaist with a brain injury, or maybe yoda with Alzheimer's.

Philo was/is a user here on lemmy that argues in bad faith in a similar (although a little more cogently) way.

Ahh.....Maybe they had a stroke, and are making an attempt of a comeback?
