[sengenism]

i just know senku was internally sweating seeing that gen wasn't called onto the ship yet that he had to check for spoilers

ok jk i know this was for ginro too but as i've mentioned before, the stark contrast in his reaction for ginro saying no vs gen saying no is so funny like

"yeah it's chill bro it's ur choice anyways the development team is needed too" 🫶🫶🫶

vs

"shut up and get on the ship with me mentalist"

like.... all of a sudden the development team isn't as important anymore im crying

People in the fandom who think synths are mostly robot or don’t need to care for basic functions fell for Institute propaganda and have not been paying attention the the various examples of robot sentience past the gen 3 synths.

Not to be a nag about it but the Institute is very much like the synth equivalent of Tennpenny Tower for ghouls. A lot of the information they have is warped to make them seem less horrible about creating a type of human purely to enslave. To find out if a person is a synth is literally impossible with out prior knowledge or death of the synth. Synths regularly enough “gain consciousness” or yknow realize there is more out there beyond the Institute that it’s hard to say they don’t have sentience. Its fear, brainwashing and the very real fact that if they for a moment step out of line they (as they know themself) will be erased or straight up killed.

Even the robots in fallout have a sort of sentience. They may not be able to disobey their primary functions in certain cases but they have opinions on things and can get very opinionated about it. Prominent examples are Cogsworth, Curie, Yes-Man and Ada. I know the difference is one is distinctly believed to be masquerading as human but that’s literally their only “crime” if you can call it that.

It’s such easy bullshit to debunk with canon and a lot of the confusion comes from a lack of second thoughts. The Institute created synths for hyper specific and inhumane purposes. Why in Earth would they propagate information that says:

“Yeah these things are basically people that we made hella strong and forced in to subsigation through threats of death and mind wipe to the point they’d rather escape and have their memories of this place cleaned rather than live and remember their horrible treatment. But not they don’t have sentience or like human needs… I think.”

Like these are your guys? This is who you’re taking the word of? Wake up Commonwealth!

Remote control

[omopatience]

timing how long it takes for me to need to piss from the time i empty my bladder when im just drinking a normal amount bc this week i feel like ive needed to go more often than usual and it feels like so much?

i have been trying to drink more water just as a health thing but this feels ridiculous. so i want to see if im really going as often as it feels or if its just my horny brain making it seem like it? or maybe it’s that that makes me feel the urge more bc omo has been on the brain a lot more this week? i used to be able to go hours without getting actually desperate.

Never in my life did i think I'd have this much fun on a sonic.exe game but here we are

[arseniccattails]

Because I recognize I am Always On That Damn Phone, I have endeavored to limit my phone usage with the built in app timers, and it's p funny to watch YouTube reddit and Tumblr grey out like they've been eliminated from death matches.

do you think seth and cody ever look at each other backstage and wonder why they even show up to work full time

[loregoddess]

the only LoZ game to cause me minor despair was when I realized that I would not be able to ever finish Majora's Mask bc I simply could not work around the timer mechanic, and that wasn't even a villain or narrative element, I just fucking hated the game mechanic

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):

Here's a link on this for autism (though as an editor wow did that title need an editor lol):

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.

shout out to the overconfident rando guys that keep throwing my dead rails runs :)

I honestly am kind of starting to dislike being home so long. I don't like my job because of the ridiculous people I have to deal with on a daily basis (yippee retail) but sitting around at home is becoming infuriating because of my own executive dysfunction and poor time awareness.

Almost everyday since I've been home I've woken up and been like "Yippee! I can finally start working on craft projects I've been putting off! Or do some art I've had rattling in my brain for a while! Or watch a series/movie I've been meaning to catch up on!" and instead I lay in bed scrolling through nonsense thinking to myself "okay I can get up and do the thing." "I dont even need to get up, I just have to switch tasks." "Okay i wanna do the thing." "I just have to switch tasks...." and by the time I can finally pull myself from doing basically nothing it's right when I have to make dinner and I'm scrambling because I realize I haven't eaten or drank anything all day.

So I'm trying something different today. Today I'm gonna start setting timers. I got up and got ready for the day. Brushed teeth, combed hair yadda yadda. Now I get an hour to scroll nonsense before I have to do something else. I can do whatever else for as long as I want but if I start scrolling nonsense it has to only be for a set period of time. Otherwise I'm gonna get lost.

Now I just have to decide what I'm going to do. I'm feeling like I either want to do some more art (i've been wanting to start drawing ideas for clown characters) or try wire wrapping and make some more jewelry for my etsy shop (I like making jewelry :) ) so that's gonna be another problem.

starting to feel the need to go - it’s been almost 3 hours since i emptied my bladder. kind of want to see how long it takes for me to get desperate. what do you think? should i keep timing?
