  • I recently learned that the guy that wrote this song is Neil Cicierega, who is also responsible for Potter Puppet Pals AND makes music under the title of Lemon Demon, which I had independently started listening to a few years ago. Funny how one guy is responsible for so many things that I’ve enjoyed over the years



  • For me, learning to manage my life in a way that works with my ADHD. For example, if I learn I need to do something, and it’s something I can do now, I get up and do it. If I don’t, I’m likely to forget or put it off too long. Finding ways to build routines, like I suddenly decided I should lick my teeth when getting ready for bed, this makes me realize they are dirty, and I feel forced to brush my teeth before I can sleep. Before that I wasn’t brushing every day. You have to figure out what ADHD prevents you from doing like a normal person, and plan around it.

    I don’t medicate right now because I have enough control to be able to function at work and my day to day life without it. But I’ve also had success in the past from either Vyvanse and Strattera (took them at different periods in my life)



  • Channels with absolutely zero drama that are still active and I would describe as " interesting content made by someone who cares about it" :

    • cracking the cryptic: solving sudoku puzzles twice daily

    • chessnetwork: explaining famous chess matches and occasionally playing online chess, but with none of the bro culture that has grown up around chess recently

    • Folding ideas: great video essays about film or modern phenomena like NFTs

    • Technology connections: already reccommended, but in depth explanations about how electronics work

    • Language Jones: videos about linguistics and learning new languages

    • Numberphile/StandUpMaths- interesting math videos
