My fiancé has combined type nominally, but other than racing thoughts and some stimming, he's definitely the quiet type. I would say that's probably the case for many (most even?) AuDHD people, as autism doesn't usually go hand in hand with the endless social battery that the ADHD stereotype portrays.

I love how rich people in particular love proposing that people have more kids while simultaneously ignoring that people can't afford to have kids.

I can tell you many couples with 2, 1 or even no kids that would have 3, 5 instead if that was something vaguely realistic financially speaking.

Of course you can always compromise and say "I'll have 3 kids but they won't have the chance to go to university, etc." which morally... Sucks. The world is complicated enough to bring someone into it without giving them good chances at succeeding.

Well the UK said they have no plans but now they have to actually debate it in Parliament. So it's better than nothing - at least the proposal gets a chance to be heard.

I don't think it's only men either, but it's worth considering the implications and potential causes for what is being said here.

We have had not decades but centuries of macho culture, where mental health is a taboo for men because "I strong, me no cry" and we know that mental health struggles go underreported on men. This is just adding more evidence to a symptom that we already know, of a society that hasn't been able to course correct because it's too set in tradition to allow those who need help to seek it without feeling like garbage.

While I'm not saying this is a problem exclusive to men, I think the causes and effects on women and men are rather different. We've now known for a while that women with mental health issues or disorders tend to go undiagnosed (even more so than unreported). The case of autism is particularly blatant, as women only started to get diagnosed in a meaningful proportion in the 80s (despite autism not being sex- or gender-driven). https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/topics/identity/autistic-women-and-girls

Similarly, that underdiagnosing came from the stereotyping of gender roles and the fact that being quiet and pretty equated being "feminine", which is "good", so can't be autistic, because autistic is bad.

Apparently they do, or at the very least some types of salmon: https://www.sciencenews.org/article/salmon-puzzle-why-did-males-turn-female

I once had the great idea of drinking a litre of beetroot juice, which I had read is amazing for sports recovery because of something something helping blood carrying more oxygen or something like that.

Instant diarrhea, and on top of it, beetroot tinted it looked just like blood, so up until I realised what was going on and the fact that it actually wasn't blood, that was a scary experience.

I don't know whether beetroot is known to cause diarrhea or it was just my body noping the juice out of it, but I have steered clear of beetroot juice ever since!

Salmon change sex too if I recall correctly.

I think the opposite. They will learn not to hold primaries because that goes against their interests.

They'll keep trying the Hillary / Kamala strategy until they get lucky or the US is done for good and the notion of a government becomes pointless.

I would say except "no thoughts, head empty" and "want to do nothing", the rest of the moods are failures to regulate.

If you can regulate, you don't get into a hyperfocus that lets you forget your own physical needs; or feel you want to do "all the things" but simultaneously none of them feels appealing/right.

I don't want to be annoying but I'd really wish they'd provide a transcript or a written version to read in 3 minutes instead of watching 34 minutes, for those of us who have some sort of attention deficit.

Thia is particularly annoying here given this is a video about neurodivergence...

I think this means we can make a torrent client with a built in function that uses 0.1% of 1 CPU core to train an ML model on anything you download. You can download anything legally with it then. 👌

Still, being able to argue they're not for profit is what typically has protected emulators from being sued to oblivion (and with Nintendo, even that's risky)...
