Oh dang! My coworker was just there. Looks like he got back just in time.

Ah, okay, I totally get that!

What's an example of two liquid foods that might be eaten in the same plate?

Thank you for your thoughtful reply, I really appreciate your perspective!

Many of the signs/symptoms of ADHD and ASD are things I struggle with if not daily, then weekly. But I know that there's a lot of crossover between the two, so it can be difficult to decipher, even for professionals at times. Especially when you throw in other mental health and learning difficulties, lol. So just knowing what's actually causing what would be helpful in dealing with it.

I wouldn't care to try meds at this time, but I think it would help with how I'm perceived in certain situations (like accomodations at work).

Is this an ADHD thing? I do this literally all the time. See also: downloads.

It definitely impacts my life. Reading that comment was like reading about my day to day.

Yeah, some/most are daily struggles. I took the two tests recommended by another user in the comments here and I scored pretty high.

I was telling my husband about how someone was managing their working memory issues with planners, apps, etc. And he kinda side-eyed and raised an eyebrow and I said "of course, that would require me keeping up to date with the planners and following through," and he was all uhh-huh, that's what I thought. 🤣😅😭

So, if I'm an adult who has never been diagnosed with either/anything, but I do all of the things you listed for ADHD and some of the autism ones... Should I be evaluated?

Like, click the microphone and tell it what you're trying to say, lol. How can you even think "four meal your" is a thing?

I miss my slider phone and my flip phone. But honestly, I think I was using my phone as a fidget without realizing it.

I do actually agree, though. I like real buttons.

Thanks, I'll look into it! I really struggle with food, and cooking is way too much effort for something I'm not going to like eating, lol. Breakfast being especially hard for me, liquid meals would be a lifesaver.

Lol, I didn't know this was a thing. (I'm not on Twitter, but I am on Facebook, though it wasn't an intentional decision, it's just where my friends were).

Good point. I was thinking overall, but you're right, Zuck's the social media horse to bet on.

It's Zuck better than Musk?

They can't fire everyone.

Which part?

I've been considering this. I'd love to drink my meals, but I don't really like smoothies and I'm weird about tastes, so I'm hesitant to try anything like Huel. What's the flavor like? Can you taste that it's a health supplement?

Maybe. But I, myself, would never ask for special treatment from an organization/event when it's not an allergy. I don't even like asking restaurants for alterations. My mom used to make my school lunch nearly every day all the way through high school because I would only eat the pizza and Italian dunkers from the school, nothing else.

I've gotten used to being hungry, honestly.

Absolutely nothing that was listed in the books is something that I will eat. Potlucks and bbqs suck for me, food-wise. I always eat before I go anywhere that is providing food, or I bring my own food.

having nutritious and regular meals

This part is hard for me. I am never hungry even I wake up, and I literally can't force myself to eat. I'm get sick. I have a LOT of food issues, though.

Which app?

There is definitely a lower quantity of posts and many of those posts don't get tons of comments, but the posts and the comments they do get are of a much higher quality.

You would think that, but it's not likely, lol.

There are other apps.

As a picky eater who doesn't eat like a regular person, I probably would have starved to death at Hogwarts. My parents would have had to send me food packages every week.

I started with accounts on both and found myself liking Lemmy better. I actually haven't been on kbin in days.

It's on par with reddit's right now, lol. But I imagine it's on the list, just not very high priority right now.

Not that I can tell, and I'm good with that. There's a reason I'm here and not on mastodon.

This is actually the type of president we should want. As long as they can do that in all aspects, that is.

Also a former rif user, and I also really like Jerboa. But I haven't been able to use it for awhile now, with the update/server weirdness.

I'm guessing it's because it's a week after 3rd party apps shut down. A lot will change when that happens, and the 7th is far enough from the 30th to feel it.

Random vaguely relevant confession: Every time I see "RDR2," I misread it as R2D2.

It won't let me log in, so no, it doesn't "work fine." But I have six other apps for Lemmy, so I'm not worried. It'll all be sorted eventually.

Reddit might be scary, but people here are nice! I haven't posted much yet but I've commented lots. I've gotten lots of replies, and none were negative (only one slightly argumentative one, but only slightly and they were still fairly respectful and not at all mean) and tons of likes.

I didn't see it on your list, but communities I have blocked are showing up on the frontpage when I have "all" selected.

I actually might remember mine, because o joined here on the first day of the blackout. June 12th. Quit Reddit after 16 years on the 11th, so it's kinda memorable for me. And the 12th of a different month is my birthday, so that helps.

Your boss was probably so confused, lol. At least I never got as far as calling work before realizing!

Thank you! For the links, and the encouragement. You seem like a good dad!

For real, it made me incredibly happy.
