@siandart Nice!

I always heard the “penicillin was discovered from bread mold” thing, but today I learned that one of the dudes involved in the process learned about it from Arab stable boys who would intentionally grow mold on saddle blankets to help treat saddle sores.

@astarlia Brains: they are the worst

[Geraint Evans is: AuDHD @GeraintWorks]

ADHD is: being pretty good at basically anything you want to be and absolutely terrible at anything you need to do to live.

@willnapforbooks Aaaaaaa!! I have yet to see a physical copy of the book (I gather mine are on their way) but I'm so excited it's out there!

With every other condition everyone is all "Early diagnosis and immediate treatment!"

Unless you're trans, in which case it's "Hold up! Lets give it a decade until the damage is extensive and irreversible, *then* we can consider if you're allowed to start jumping through hoops"

[Erin Ekins (she/her) @QueerlyAutistic]

The fact fictional queers very rarely hang out with other fictional queers, and that fictional autistics very rarely hang out with other fictional autistics, is always something that drags me out of story immersion with a bump.

We're like magnets, we always find each other.

@ndpoet I feel all this, very much

You are more important than your writing. You can always come back to it another time if you want to, but looking after you has to come first *hugs*

In case anyone was feeling invested in the whereabouts of my derby pads: they were in the bag of shopping bags. For reasons which, naturally, made perfect sense at the time

[He aroreretini EJ 💜 kia kaha! @EJhummingbrain]

Spent a chunk of today happily hyperfocused on altering my new 2nd hand derby pads. Went to leave for practice tonight, couldn't find them *anywhere*. Now I'm 30 min late & have to wear sweaty borrowed pads

These days I'm mostly OK w my adhd, but right now I just want to scream

@AnnaWhateley @Le_phill In this paper I will be able to change my registered driver's license gender with only a stat dec and can provide an example of how the new system works for you

Dang, that's a useful thesis! 😁

My beloved & I are perfect counter-examples of what ADHD looks like when you've been brought up with acceptance of your quirks vs raised on "you need to try harder" "it's not that difficult" etc

He's a hot mess who is literally wearing suit pants today bc they're his only clean pants, but he's mostly happy with who is. I'm superficially better at the business of being an adult, but I'm also a ball of stress constantly judging myself on my performance
