people say folks with adhd struggle with "delayed rewards" aka long term goals and as such we tend to focus more on short term rewards. what they don't talk about is that at when we Do accomplish long term goals we don't actually feel anything proportionate to the amount of work we did to achieve it. In my head I suffered for a while and then money spontaneously appeared in my bank account.

love House MD because House is the MAIN CHARACTER at that hospital and there's no attempt to hide this. as the viewer you are fully aware that those nurses in the elevator are just extras. the boss's entire schedule consists of yelling at him. the head of oncology would rather prescribe him controlled meds and flirt than practice oncology. his team's only desires are to fuck him and strangle him, often at the same time. every other doctor at the hospital might as well be a cardboard cutout.

the walls are glass, the better to see him through. he limps around, commits malpractice, and serves cunt.

long live mid-2000s TV.

Me, watching my kitten hold still for a suspiciously long time: Ollie, are you peeing on my floor?

Ollie: Not

Me: Are you sure?

Ollie, grunting through time and space to push out a chocolate mcmuffin wider than he is tall: Not

not to sound like a boomer, but I need some people to learn how to write emails in a semi-professional (at the very least) format so you're not cold emailing a business/potential employer/any other stranger about formal matters in the exact same way you'd DM a close friend on instagram

the formality/language can loosen up in the email chain once you've established a rapport and you match the other person if they're being less formal, but please don't have the very first email you send a stranger be written in all lowercase ultra-casual sms slang with no greeting or signature and a billion emojis

this is insane

some of you just cannot accept that “i just don’t like it” is a complete reason to not engage with media or a facet of media

everyone saying "art doesn't need to be perfect" hasn't taken into account the art monster, the monster that comes and kills you if art doesn't look exactly like it did in your head

BDS added this section to their boycott page and I think people really need to read it:

please remember, pushing unorganized boycotts without carefully fact-checking every company in the list can be actively HARMFUL to the boycott movement.

it will be less than a year until james somerton puts up a post on whatever platforms hes still wringing dry like Hey this is his doctor... james just went into a coma while doing community service :( btw when we scanned his brain the section responsible for honesty was very large, almost dangerously so. and his haircut did not look strange, medically speaking

First of all, boycott eurovision. However, I AM loving all the various stories of pro-palestinian rebellion that are coming out surrounding eurovision.

Apparently security surrounding the event is through the roof, and the Eurovision team literally frisk searched all the contestants to make sure they didn't smuggle any palestinian scarves or flags in, but despite this:

there was the guy who wore his father's kufiya as a wristband during his performance

there was a performer who painted "CEASEFIRE" and "FREEDOM" on their face using ogham script, and who then did a post on social media talking about it and how EV officials (who had found out the meaning of the facepaint by then) refused to allow them to do it again for a later round.

there was the indigenous Australian who used his body paint to paint a watermelon on his chest and later made a statement drawing attention to it and stating that he stands with the Palestinians

there's the 10,000-strong pro-Palestine protest that happened in Malmö, the city hosting the ESC this year

there's the crowd, who booed Israel during their dress rehearsal and shouted Free Palestine so loudly that the performance itself was nearly drowned out and the broadcaster (clumsily) tried to alter the audio so that the audience couldn't be heard

It's great, I love it. They can try all they like to block every mention of Palestine, but they haven't been succeeding and they'll continue to fail.

Fuck Israel, fuck Eurovision, and Free Palestine. 🇵🇸

🇵🇸 Happening right now in Malmö, Sweden.

A huge crowd of pro-Palestine protests have gathered ahead of tonight's Eurovision semi-final in Malmö, where Israel will be one of the participating countries.

Israel's representing artist, Eden Golan—who was initially supposed to perform tonight with the song "October Rain," before the EBU forced Israel to rewrite it into the little less overtly genocidal "Hurricane"—has promised that the first thing she'll do after returning from Eurovision, is to join the IDF:

Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸

And if you're in Malmö, please join the protesters!
