Ohhhh report back on how it goes! I do my pinto beans in the pressure cooker and it rules
Do long distance runners not wear pasties at this point?
That sounds so amazing, I hope its an incredible trip for you, you deserve it after putting in all that hard work!
I'm supposed to do a very important scary thing soon but my legs are fucking toast and I think it was from exercising beyond my capacity??? But it's so weird because my hammies don't feel sore, morelike the achey muscle feeling when you're sick, but its only my hamstrings and glutes. I hope I'm not getting sick and that the aches go away so that I can do the thing! 
Thats still so weird, psychologists and even LCSW's can diagnose ADHD... But they may have to have specific training in that. It might vary state to state, maybe. Thats hella frustrating though I'm sorry.
I DO know that for insurance, practitioners need to give you a specific diagnosis and then create goals and plans to reach those goals based off of those diagnoses. I have had therapists who will diagnose me with something else but work on the ADHD/autism symptoms under the guise of the other DX... So idk if you trust your psych enough to pass that by them?
Why the fuck does a psychologist need you to get an ADHD diagnosis? Its not like they are prescribing medication. That makes me very angry on your behalf I'm sorry
Thrice, Finch, Poison the Well, Fall of Troy, The Used, and These Arms Are Snakes were bands I listened to a lot when I was in my Warped Tour era lol. Botch is a bit older but I think they kinda fit. I think Hot Water Music was one too. I don't really qualify that era as emo but I guess that's kinda the closest genre.
Glassjaw fucking slaps they were my faaaavorite for a long time
This may be super obvious to everyone but me, but I feel like the shock and awe of the Trump administration (and the controlled op of the Dems) is intentionally done to break leftist unity and cement peoples positions as liberals to scare them away from communism/anarchism. Cuz with how things are going, I do not know what I would really say to a 
stan right now. Like, the "they were doing things to set this up for the Republicans" or "it would've been the same shit but slower" do not seem to hold up in the moment.
I am hopeful that more people are turning left but yikes. I know people that work at Planned Parenthood and they are so fucked. Not by December 2026, they are fucked RIGHT NOW, and there is nothing we can do about it. I'm terrified to go back to school for an MSW right now because who knows if I'll have a job by the end.
I know that during the first Russian Revolution there were still people who has faith in electoralism even though the Tsarist regime had been torturing people and using live ammunition to kill dissidents and yet the revolution still happened, it's still terrifying that it's going probably going to come down to that
Hexbear convinced me to get a bidet and it was the best decision of my life
Luckily that was not my cross to bear, someone else did it lol
Had to leave a movie theater for the first time and ask for my money back because the people behind us were being so fucking obnoxious. I don't mind people whispering here and there, or even talking quietly during loud parts of the film to their friends or whatever I do that, but this shit was outta control. Kicking my seat, partner got hit in the head with someone's backpack as they walked to their seat, had popcorn thrown on him (not purposefully but still), talking at regular volume during the quiet parts. These were grown ass adults too. Fucking absurd behavior
I'm finally turning into an old person. 
It would appear that the moniker was first unveiled by former Fox News star Tucker Carlson weeks before the presidential election, in an off-the-rails speech at a TPUSA event in October.
“Yeah, that’s right. Dad comes home. And he’s pissed. Dad is pissed,” the far-right podcaster blared at the time. “And when dad gets home, you know what he says? ‘You’ve been a bad girl. You’ve been a bad little girl, and you’re getting a vigorous spanking right now. You’re getting a vigorous spanking because you’ve been a bad girl.’ And it has to be this way.”
I hereby decree that Tuesday and Wednesday are to be renamed Beansday
I wish I could figure it what's wrong with me. Am I rapid-cycling bipolar? Is it ADHD? Is it autism? I'll go days, maybe even a week or more feeling like I have barely any energy at all, it'll be hard to do much more than a quick chore or two. Fatigued, unmotivated, energy drinks don't really work. And then all if a sudden boom, awake at 7am, energy drinks kick my ass. Yesterday I was doing chores/projects from 11am to 1am. Couldn't fall asleep til around 3am, and now I'm up naturally at 8am, with energy to go. Towards the end of the night I got hyperfixated on making pretty excel spreadsheet templates so that might be why I was up so late. I'm also spending hundreds of dollars on things all at once which I normally never do... But they are all practical and I'm tired of not having things that make my life nicer/easier.
I was way more scattered than usual yesterday, bouncing around like a pinball, but my baseline is pretty forgetful/ scattered, it was just on overdrive yesterday. I wish I could harness this energy all the time for things like work, socializing, or hobbies so that I could make them a normal part of my life. I've even been able to/WANT to play video games! I can never get myself to do that even, which is relatively low effort so I feel like thats a decent marker of a shift in baseline. This nay be hypomania, but I'm not getting the confidence/inflated sense of self esteem which I need so badly.
What fucking gives? 
PS here are some examples from my mood tracker of where I'm normally at, first graph from 2023 (i stopped tracking for a long time)and third is from this month(the green lines to the right are just the past couple of days that I'm talking about:
Lol. Lmao even
"This is a farewell kiss from the Iraqi people, you dog! This is from the widows, the orphans, and those who were killed in Iraq"
The idea of a phone with panini grooves really gets me even though it would not be functional. Would it explode? Maybe. But it would be for SCIENCE
