  • Wish I could but I can’t stand neither beans nor rice. Gotta have meat and green veggies in my meal.

    That means that I only like chili without beans. At Asian restaurants I always ask for no rice and substitute noodles. The only beans I can tolerate are refried. So at Mexican restaurants I ask for no rice and double beans.

    While we’re at it, I don’t like potatoes, either. I’ll eat them, but I won’t go out my way to order them, unless the alternative side dish selection is no better.

    Edit: FWIW I’ll eat it all if I’m hungry, but none of these things would be my first choice.


  • I was being sincere. Thank you.

    As someone in their late 30s with a recent diagnosis, I’m beginning to learn just how stigmatized my condition is. It’s beyond frustrating when I get dismissed as just being lazy by even my own friends and family.

    Nobody understands the struggle unless they have it. They don’t seem to understand that it’s a lot more than just forgetfulness and an inability to process long blocks of text. It is a full-blown disability that has been holding me back from reaching my full potential. Hell, I didn’t even move out of my parents’ house until my 30s due to my condition. Even other people with ADHD don’t seem to understand that there’s different levels of severity, and I’m on the more extreme end of the spectrum.

    So again, thank you for being kind.















  • It’s almost as if some simple bars aren’t enough information to accurately convey connection quality. I really wish someone would come up with a better system. At the very least, there should be a way to convey more than just signal strength.

    At the very least, we should also be able to see signal-to-noise, tower saturation, connection speed, and the modulation scheme being used. All useful information for determining how good of a connection you’re really getting. (Edit: I also wish there was a way to automatically drop down to LTE when 5G becomes too saturated, and not just when the signal is weak. I’m tired of having to toggle between 4G/5G manually.)
