  • I’m personally on a combination of Adderall and Adderall XR and have had the exact same problem (except the insomnia, which I’ve always had). For me it’s about every 5 or 6 months, unless I skip it on the weekends then it’s about every 10 months.

    What I do to counteract it is take occasional two week breaks from my meds, just whenever my workload becomes less critical or the side effects get unbearable. I’ve been doing that for about 18 years now, and it works for me.


  • I think the proliferation of videos as primary information sources is a huge part of how propaganda and disinformation became so effective and powerful. It’s why we’ve done a collective nosedive into regressive politics and can no longer agree on the objective facts regarding… well… anything!

    Information delivered by video tends to be trusted on the way it’s delivered rather than the content itself. So we’re thinking less critically about what we choose to believe.





  • I recently built a 3D printer where the entire community for it lives on Discord. Their website instructions are horrifically out of date because all of the current changes have been discussed at some point on Discord. What should have been a 2-4 day project turned into a 2-3 week project due to the garbage involved in trying to strain information out of a massive multi-channel group chat with terrible search.
