This is probably different for different people but for me personally ADHD feels like if you can only carry a cup of water across a room if you’re juggling with your other hand

A note, because not everyone knows this: if you're driving and another driver flashes their brights at you, this is a signal to be on alert and slow down. There may be debris in the road, a cop out of sight, or an animal crossing ahead of you. (Or, alternatively, your brights are on and they're getting blinded.) Whatever the reason, it's a signal that you need to focus and reduce speed. And possibly turn your own brights off.

This PSA has been brought to you by the four fawns and does that ran out in front of me at various points on my drive home.

Let's court death with mama!

My sister and I were doing a puzzle with these Disney toys on it, and noticed this alien-looking character we didn't recognize.

I did some research and learned that these are "Vinylmation" toys, a sort of Munny-style base Disney gets different artists to use to create different characters.

Unfortunately, Mickey is a very specific shape, and the results are frankly horrific.

This causes problems, like the buttons on Mickey's pants often resembling strange nipples.

Also, idk if you noticed, but these look horrible. Like... really bad

If you're interested, please join me on my journey observing more of these under the cut

One issue the artist has to deal with is what to do with the Mickey ears. Some get lucky and can add existing elements, like ears or hair. Some make them into the eyes, or just add some thematic BS to fill the space.

(sidenote: Lady from And the tramp fame did NOT translate well)

Other artists pretend they don't exist, painting them the same color as the hair or making them transparent.

(sidenote: using the Mickey feet as Lady Tremaine's boobs was inspired, but not sure it's worth it for that 5 head)

(sidenote2: they did Leia unbelievably so dirty here)

(sidenote3: Make Kermit's eyes on the ears again if you're just gonna paint them white??)

The other issue is when the character is not very humanoid, so they either slap a PNG on the body, or try their very best to do...something.

Btw whoever made Helen look like this instead of rotund like this Cinderella, die.

Finally, I looked up characters I knew would be difficult to translate and here are the results:

Anyway, the moral of the story is, she's a 2012 SSDC exclusive generic superhero girl, and that's why we didn't recognize her.

somewhere out there right now is a kid with curly hair being raised by people who have wavy hair at best and those people are giving them 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner and telling them to dry brush it. and that kid is gonna spend all of middle school and high school hating their hair and moping over the flat iron. they're being told right now that if they don't dry-brush their curl pattern into oblivion every morning it means they're unkempt and gross even though they naturally have the kind of ringlets that a thousand bridezillas would commit horrible murders for every june. it's happening right now it's an absolute epidemic and a tragedy every time

Being the only bi cis guy amongst almost exclusively trans friends and peers is wild because in theory its like im living in a horny manga where all of a dudes friends turn into hot babes, but in reality they are hunting me like the last bison on the prairie. 5 years ago I mentioned bionicle and one of them asked when I was starting estrogen.

I've been thinking of the "Can Granny Weatherwax beat Bugs Bunny" question and this is my full take for Discworld characters:

Vimes - Cares too much, too easy to piss off. Has the innate chase instinct that makes characters run into walls with realistic tunnels painted on them. Might get to arrest Bugs Bunny but the beast will just slip out of the handcuffs to help him lock them, then walk out of the jail cell to have a union mandated coffee break.

Ridcully - Classic hunting season scenario, but has enough charisma to probably still get a few good shots off before the inevitable.

Rest of the wizards - No survivors, only Bugs.

Carrot - The intense near-magical narrative aura of well meaning innocence should make him immune, Bugs will likely be forced to be the villain of the episode.

Lord Vetinari - Flattened by a comically large anvil in the first few minutes of the episode, unclear if it was all a part of his long term strategy or not.

Moist - Has the 'lovable trickster getting away with it' energy, but nowhere near Bugs level. Already fell for the "old lady who swallowed a fly" scenario with the stamp slugs once, won't fare any better here.

Death - Definitely one of those "character is trying to avoid death" episodes, would go back and forth. Might actually get to end Bugs but his spirit will reappear in Death's domain and ruin his garden.

Nanny Ogg - The ultimate in anti-Bugs technology, a gleefully annoying old lady who doesn't give a fuck and definitely won't be the first to instigate the plot bearing conflict. This is a full sweep, he's the episode antagonist.

Granny Weatherwax - Too win-motivated to not lose. Would have to break the story to have any chance. Might do it.

Magrat - Will have sappy ideas about helping the poor animal which honestly has the 50:50 chance of either getting slapsticked or Bugs ending in a ye olde stroller&pacifier gag.

Colon&Nobby - Designed in a lab to be totaled by Bugs Bunny.

Tiffany Aching - A child that also has a large pan that is the perfect thing to hit someone over the head with and make a BOIOIOINGGG sound, so great odds.
