I'd be on board with that.


I like your assessments of all the mental illnesses. But I agree with Sir 5ID3WAYS, some of them are close but off. I think the ADHD one might be the most accurate. They're are people that legit have it, but many probably get misdiagnosed, or just use it as an excuse for being a careless asshole. PTSD is real, but I do know people that fake having it to get disability. They're really just drug addicts, but convinced the gov't they abuse drugs to cope with past trauma. I know them, that is not the case. They're just enjoying the high, and found a way for the gov't to fund their drug habit.

i know the most about ADHD because i have ADD. have a few friends with ADHD, and my boss is undiagnosed ADHD. all 4 of them are human squirrels. you want to talk about impulsive actions OMG! im convinced that if you tied my boss up so he physically couldn't move, he'd explode. my friend Jon on the other hand, could be halfway to work before he realized he forgot his car. but it's ok, he'll get distracted by the blinking light at the liquor store before he turns around to go get it. which reminds him of his dog he saw at the park 2 weeks ago. how that guy became a book keeper is mind boggling.

not to poke fun, but am i the only one who's going to laugh his ass of if we ever find out Autism is caused by unnatural dopamine levels/spikes and screen usage?

this is amusing, i call it the drill bit story
we got a new winding machine at work. my boss goes go bolt it to the workbench and realizes its a different bolt pattern than the old winder. so he goes to drill new holes in the bench. first 2 holes go ok, just through the wood top of the workbench. second 2 holes have to go through the steel frame of the bench. but the drill bit is dull AF. next think i know he's got a ladder and is standing on the ladder leaning over the drill (damn near laying down on it) to get as much weight on it as possible to force the drill bit through the bench. im watching a half inch drill bit flex! he then realizes this isn't a good idea. stops. scurries off to the front office where i hear him grab his keys. and out the front door he goes. gets in his car, backs out of the parking spot. he's now out of my line of sight and that's when my phone rings. care to guess who it was? yeah, my boss, wanting to know what size drill bit was in the drill

Sir 51D3WAYS You are actually wrong there are many examples of the trans community using dick and pussy as pronouns saying they aren't pronouns is highly transphobic of you and invalidating of one's existence. Actually, I doubt this "Trans and non-binary people tend to have fairly chaotic/abusive/unsupportive lives," it seems like a lot of their issues are self-inflicted I just refused to believe the rate of mental illnesses they claim to have.

if that's all you think you've got me beat. i refuse to accept that 99% of them have any kind of gender dysphoria. i think they have other issues and have been lead to believe or have been flat out brainwashed into thinking they're the wrong gender.

and in other news i finally bought myself a couple zippo lighters.

It's funny that the left says the gadsden flag is racist yet they use it when it suits them. Probably the same way they get wet whenever we donate to Ukraine so guys with nazi tattoo can be armed up.

I'll tell you guys something about ADHD. In the US, a kid diagnosed with ADHD (through the school) gets 2x the school funding that a normal kid has. In NY I think it's 3x. So the schools have an incentive to classify badly behaving kids as ADHD. The money of course doesn't go to the kid, it goes towards other sh*t like sports etc.

Autism (and gender dysphoria) has been around LOOOOOONNNGG before screens, so I'm guessing probably not. I too haz autism homie.

I haven't heard of dick/pussy being used as pronouns and I skive off on r/lgbt everyday.

I too have a Zippo I bought recently. It's Lemon Yellow in colour.

The Gadsden flag isn't racist (according to the EEOC of all people), although it might occasionally be used by a racist.....

Not shocked. At the end of the day, everything can be traced back to some crooked motherfuckers trying to get money.

Sir 51D3WAYS I would not call sports shit, I think they help many kids and before any calculus class, I always selected PE first every year of high school. Now I will say certain things they invest in are stupid like solar panels for the field knowing dam well one bad hit with a baseball will mean bye-bye panels. But I get what you are saying so no need to explain.
I can promise you they have been used as pronouns and why would you torture yourself like that "I skive off on r/lgbt everyday"
The Gadsden flag isn't racist I agree but has been referred to as that. I personally don't consider even the swastika racist hell it has even been found in ancient pottery in Africa. But the mainstream would have you believe otherwise. Most people nowadays can't even define what a racist is without using the word white in the definition.

When you come across someone's profile that say "Intersectional feminist and advocate for MMIWG2S • Every Child Matters • BLM • SAH • 2SLGBTQ+" How would you respond? The chick I am seeing her sister came across a Tinder profile with that. She asked who would be fucking who I busted out laughing
