I Like How During The Trial Miles Would Roast Poor Nick Alive Without Mercy

if ninetales' and arcanine's regional forms were swapped ? yeagh..

By the way do you think that when the Doctor went from Nine to Ten he was thinking about Rose so much and wishing so hard he could stay with her and be like her that Ten developed a distinctly human thought process up to and including a massive fear of death even though he knew he'd just regenerate. But he'd already become too human and therefore inextricably tied the end of his regeneration to the concept of death even though it's later stated multiple times that the Doctor is still the Doctor no matter who they are, meanwhile Ten was like "when I regenerate a new man goes sauntering away. And I'm dead" and do you think that's maybe a sort of metaphor for trauma in that he's so so so afraid of beginning to heal because his trauma is who he is. He is his trauma. And to heal and change is to kill himself

something about the unreality of being the player character, thus aware of the world's nature but looking away for the sake of the others

they need a sorry button in online team games for when you suck complete ass and you know it

i cannot deny the fact that he would call him some shit like "monsieur forehead"

School isnt even a real thing that i have to do. I am a mouse on a farm. Scampering. Eating grains and such.

By the way, you can improve your executive function. You can literally build it like a muscle.

Yes, even if you're neurodivergent. I don't have ADHD, but it is allegedly a thing with ADHD as well. And I am autistic, and after a bunch of nerve damage (severe enough that I was basically housebound for 6 months), I had to completely rebuild my ability to get my brain to Do Things from what felt like nearly scratch.

This is specifically from ADDitude magazine, so written specifically for ADHD (and while focused in large part on kids, also definitely includes adults and adult activities):

Resources on this aren't great because they're mainly aimed at neurotypical therapists or parents of neurdivergent children. There's worksheets you can do that help a lot too or thought work you can do to sort of build the neuro-infrastructure for tasks.

But a lot of the stuff is just like. fun. Pulling from both the first article and my own experience:

Play games or video games where you have to make a lot of decisions. Literally go make a ton of picrews or do online dress-up dolls if you like. It helped me.

Art, especially forms of art that require patience, planning ahead, or in contrast improvisation

Listening to longform storytelling without visuals, e.g. just listening regularly to audiobooks or narrative podcasts, etc.

Meditation

Martial arts

Sports in general

Board games like chess or Catan (I actually found a big list of what board games are good for building what executive functioning skills here)

Woodworking

Cooking

If you're bad at time management play games or video games with a bunch of timers

Things can be easier. You might always have a disability around this (I certainly always will), but it can be easier. You do not have to be this stuck forever.
