The problem with having ADHD in this society is that I need accommodations to help me advocate to get the diagnosis to be able to get accommodations with
Especially because they (intentionally??) set the system up in such a way that the people who need it the most have the most difficulty accessing it
Please I literally have an executive function disorder please don't make me do things that require initiative and checking in to make sure I have /actually/ been put on the years-long waitlist
@Dee "the", implying there is only one
@rune @phoenix@chaos.social Yeah, this does not sound fun to manage at all...
burnout, writers block, unsolicited advice
@toni A bit of unsolicited advice, in the hope that it helps: on the face of it that sounds like burnout, and for me the most effect way to deal with that has been to just immediately declare the day "over, impossible to salvage", and go do whatever else I feel like doing for the rest of the day.
Sometimes I'll magically become inspired again later in the day, due to the weight of "performance stress" having been dropped from my shoulders (now it's just something I *can* do, not something I *have* to do!), sometimes I won't. But either way it helps a lot for me to recover :)
Trying to 'push myself past it' only worked for a while, and eventually started becoming counterproductive... of course this may work totally differently for you! But it took me a long time personally to figure out the "declare the day over" approach, so hopefully I can help to save others from that delay :p
@rune @phoenix@chaos.social Oof. That looks like someone caught a bad case of scalability disease...
@phoenix@chaos.social @rune 3k users is like, almost nothing though?
@pastelpunkbandit @tobi Conway's Law probably applies here

@aeva@mastodon.social I don't know, I think the main problem here is that browsers try to fulfill the "instantly run software anywhere without install" and the "universal application platform" dreams at the same time, and that results in some complicated privacy issues (like fingerprinting) that would be less of a concern if all the software you ran was trusted to some degree... though then again with how *non-browser* software constantly snitches on people in the background, I'm not sure the fingerprinting issue is even that prominently an issue in the bigger picture

My spoons are limited, so I may not always have the energy to respond to messages.
Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.
