I do that with my history podcasts, sometimes a whole episode at a time.
I thought that happened to everyone.
For the most part there isn’t anything that happens to people with ADHD that doesn’t happen to people without ADHD, except something like the paradoxical caffeine response where it calms you down instead of wiring you. The difference is just frequency.
The difference is just frequency.
The way I first heard this was, “Everybody poops, but if you do it 20 times a day you should go see a doctor.”
“You don’t have poopidipoop syndrome, son, I poop 20 times a day and I don’t have poopidipoop syndrome” …
I had an old friend of mine say that I would have not cared for cocaine since I can drink coffee before bed and sleep.
The stimulant thing blows my mind a bit but I also don’t have the education to really understand it.
It does.
Especially if I am asked to read aloud. I have no idea what I just read. Best explanation I have is:
cat text > /dev/mouth && cat text > /dev/brainAnd now I am overthinking how to improve the imaginary snippet. Read from /dev/eyes, pipe to “tesseract”, then redirect to /dev/mouth probably makes more sense.
But what should /dev/eyes produce? Video stream? For simplicity, it would probably be best if my imaginary /dev/eyes simply returned current frame on each read. But does that make sense?Just use a socket 👍
This was actually my superpower. When I would review my friend’s papers during grad school, as soon as my eyes glazed over or my attention wandered, I would circle the paragraph and tell them to clean it up.
Brain going everywhere is usually a pretty clear sign of convoluted writing, and if you can tell someone to fix it, do.
