I went to a busy flea market this morning. This is how my neurodivergent brain (#AuDHD) works.
It seems to me that neurotypical brains can filter out/edit/moderate incoming stimuli or data more easily than #neurodivergent ones. For me, it's particularly noticeable with sound. So, I created a comparison to show you what I mean.

Remember, if someone is speaking English to you with an accent, they are probably, by default, smarter than you because they speak two languages. Don't patronize them.

HOW TO SPOT A RIP CURRENT:

IT'S WHERE THE WATER LOOKS EASIEST AND SAFEST, with no waves breaking or rolling in.

NEVER ENTER THE SEA HERE.

If you get caught in a rip, DON'T FIGHT IT. You can't swim back to shore against it; you will become exhausted and drown.

Instead, SWIM ACROSS IT, parallel to shore. You'll soon be out of the current and can then easily swim back.

Boost, please, and make sure your friends and family know this when they hit the beach.

The ad identifier - aka “IDFA” on iOS, or “AAID” on Android - is the key that enables most third-party tracking on mobile devices.

(USA-specific) People are talking about refusing to resume student loan payments and I'm here for this protest but also please check your state requirements before doing this.

In TN, TX, AK, HI, MA, GA, IA, and KY, you can lose your professional license if you default on any student loan.
In FL, CA, AR, and MS, you can lose your license for specific types of loan default.
In IA and SD, they'll also revoke your driver's license.

Please be careful 💜

"Parker ruled that the law was “both unconstitutionally vague and substantially overbroad” because of the prohibition on displays “harmful to minors,” whatever that means. The law “fails to provide fair notice of what is prohibited, and it encourages discriminatory enforcement,” especially because the ban applies wherever a minor could be present."
Thank you, Judge Parker!
