Hi! 

I'm a hobbyist sysadmin and programmer. I love simple and sustainable technologies, tea, writing, and gardening. I'm a big fan of low-tech or analog solutions to life's problems.

I like to participate in and help build communities of like-minded people. I am happy to engage in good-faith discussions, but I strongly dislike exclusionary politics and people.

I came across this video ("Avoiding Toxic Productivity Advice for ADHD: Find What Actually Works
" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsT3KPYJFl4) not realizing it was about ADHD at first, but then it was like the presenter was talking right at me.

This is the second time in the past six months or so that I've thought that maybe I could have ADHD since my whole high school and university career has been like what the guy described in the video.

I did a few online tests and ​ maybe? I have no idea... perhaps I should see someone about it but I know I'm gonna be waiting months for an appointment.
