My mom thought I had bipolar as well when I was a teen!

Because I would spiral and become so agitated/depressed for no reason. (There usually was a reason. It was usually dumb, and I couldn’t explain why it made me so unreasonably upset.)

Then other times I would become hyper focused on a thing where I wouldn’t eat/sleep.

So I can certainly understand why those two things could be confused for mania/depression to a layman.

RSD, in my understanding, is just a thing that happens to a lot of ADHD folks and not a separate diagnosis. Some of the readings say the fact that we know it’s illogical makes it worse, cause we feel stupid/embarrassed by our actions.

I promise, knowing why certain beetles have shinier shells than other beetles is very important to me!

Somehow.

You wouldn’t understand why though.

I mean, unless they are ferrying weapons across the great salt lake, I don’t think it applies to me XD

But if Californians wanna disrupt all trade on the west coast I wish them all the luck.

That is very reasonable take. I mean I don’t have kids so a rifle in a gun safe probably is harmless. If it never gets used, it’ll just be a funny story of that time Ericbomb got paranoid and bought a gun because of encouragement from some weirdos off fake Reddit.

Owning a gun scares me since it’s been decided that if a cop sees you touch a gun they can kill you and it’ll almost certainly be ruled fine. Maybe I’ll get something for home that stays here and just keep taking my pepper spray around.

2A so important right?

But, good points… I ahh, may or may not already be housing some friends that were kicked out of their houses for life style differences. Such as you know, not being Mormon.

But wonderful points!

You know what? That does help, thank you. This feeling you get when something goes terribly wrong that says “do something” can be good, but also very stressful because WTF are we supposed to do about an election like this?

I mean I hope they investigate, considering you know, the whole attempting to over throw the government thing. For all we know there already is evidence and they just are collecting. But yeah, not holding my breath for that one. I always knew we were bad at punishing criminal billionaires, but I would have never guessed “Rich man attempts to over throw government, is found guilty of various crimes and rape. Is handed government for his trouble.”

But sounds like we do have to wait and watch for at least the moment. I do hope maybe a few republican senators will want to slow things down, or at least want to pretend to be the sane ones.

“Surely the company that sells a product for $100 will keep selling the product for that price once tariffs mean that it costs a $125 to produce and import!” - crazy people.

Wanna bet that the search trend spikes again when/if they come into affect?

Some folks were a little late to figuring out what tariffs were okay!

Now is the time to see who might run for house/senate seats and encourage those you like, insult those you don’t, and volunteer. See if we can replace some of the spineless DNC members.

You’re not wrong! Alas I am an admin, not the host. Also we wanted it to be very obvious that it’s a game jam about blind accessibility. Could he have picked a different name? Probably, but at this point we’re kinda committed!

“Oh, jokes just normally have a punchline and aren’t just stating something really backwards”

If you end up working in the medical/insurance field in the USA, you don’t even need basic math! The numbers the programs output are just all made up!

I had the audacity the other day to ask in what order we apply deductibles. (YOU want a deductible applied to something covered at 10%, not 100%. The insurance wants it applied to something covered at a100%) I was told it just picks some at random and hopes for the best, so we use the word “best effort” when it comes to estimating what insurance will pay, since they’ll make that up anyway.

So yeah, just another throwing in that it super matters where you work. At my job we plug in what is industry standard for medical accounting, and say it’s just an estimate on everything else.

Ahh man all I got was a disabled mom and prison dad.

Think I can trade him for a rich dad to a rich person who wants to claim they had a rough child hood?

I remember 14 years ago in high school I was kicking around the idea of becoming a court reporter (type out everything said in court) , but was told “nooo look at Siri, that’ll totally replace all that soon!”

No, no it’s not. We don’t want things like that making choices like that.

Also was told “C and C++ is too old, learn something newer”

People get too excited about new tech, not thinking about why the old tech stands the test of time.

Perfection can never be the enemy of progress! Cleaning out nazis will always be progress, if not “always” perfection.

Nazi hunting?..

Run the code.

RUN IT.

Can they please look up a guide on how to make a stable government already?

Ooh and how many women apparently wear the HIGHEST quality water proof make up at all times!

Realistic hacking scenes would be funny.

“Okay I’m in”

“Wait… how?”

“Oh I figured out the default passwords and naming conventions for new employees awhile ago.”

Funnily enough I got my college to change password policies because for a report for one of my classes I wrote about how stupid it was that all new users passwords were First intial + last initial + last four of social security number, with usernames being firstname + lastname + year. Since they had no max number of attempts on logins, and didn’t prompt you to change password on logging in, it took a few minutes to get into anyone’s account once you knew their name. (That school was very incompetent, and they are closed now)

OR

“Give me 20 minutes, I’m on hold with IT. They’ll reset the password and tell me it if I give them an employee ID, dob, and name. Which I see clearly on this guys facebook picture where he has his badge visibile.”

Or a hacking guy trying to brute force for days. Then the “no nonsense” guy goes out for 20 minutes, and comes back with it and refused to answer questions. Oh wait… that’s just XKCD.
