Am I #AuDHD or intuitive & visionary? Am I different to get attention or does energy really affect our functioning? ‘These are the things that bother me🎶’ 🤔☀️
I’m a HSP and have been a victim of gaslighting my entire life due to not being able to validate my visceral experiences with 3D explanations. This has deemed me everything from odd/weird to !disordered’ or something less than ‘sane’.
I’m questioning this from a psych pov.
@rabbitholebot True.
INSTEAD 👇
Mix coconut oil & bicarb. Rub it under your arms or anywhere that gets sweaty & smelly. I guarantee it is both an antiperspirant & deodorant and way better than anything manufactured.
@CrazyVibes_1 The miserable look on the woman’s face in the picture sure doesn’t match the sparkle of the dress or the vibe of the story. She just looks mean & scary.🤷♀️😳
@diane_idaho@Wejolyn I get it. My GP, like your dad, was about self empowerment which I appreciated. My sister wanted a pill and went to a different GP. Just know that there are some people who know ppl like your dad were the real deal before pharma brainwashed ppl to expect a drug to fix everything.
@diane_idaho@Wejolyn That’s the sad thing. The medical system modelled itself on ppl getting complacent & trusting an external system instead of empowering them to take control of their own health.😿
@missrobinson Especially considering the recommendations are usually ignored by the powers that be.
I’ve always wondered what was its purpose (apart from wasting money) since a Royal Commission has no teeth.🤷♀️
@frogkenny Willy wagtails are my favourites. They are small but feisty and no cat will ever dominate them. I was swooped by a magpie & this tiny bird sent it away.👇

The reason we think dandelions are weeds is because of a 1950s marketing campaign.
Dandelions, native to Europe and Asia, were brought to North America in the 1600s by European colonists who grew them deliberately.
Every part is edible. The leaves are a salad green, the flowers were made into wine, and the roots were roasted as a coffee substitute and used medicinally for liver and kidney conditions for thousands of years. They were a kitchen-garden staple well into the 1800s.
The shift happened after World War II, when 2,4-D (originally developed for chemical warfare research) was approved as a residential herbicide. Companies like Scotts built the modern lawn-care industry around the idea that a perfect green lawn meant zero broadleaf plants.
Dandelions, being bright yellow and resistant to mowing, became a visible enemy, and the campaign worked. By the 1970s, "dandelion-free" was synonymous with "well-kept."
They aren't native, but they aren't doing significant ecological harm either. The herbicides used to kill them, on the other hand, kill bees, contaminate groundwater, and have been linked to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in humans.
If you hate dandelions, it's most likely due to a marketing campaign that ran before you were born.
@vegastarr It’s criminal that govts can continuously change laws to evade conviction while they use our taxes to play wars, protect paedophiles & fund billionaires.🤷♀️

@omgsidewalks@luanam465 Yep.
And when average Joe is imprisoned for smoking cannibis while the president of the US is a apparently a felon, a paedophile, a drug addict, an incest sex predator et al & has immunity to conduct illegal wars, dodge tax & avoid ALL justice.🤷♀️
We are now in a weird era where a guy gets publicly shamed for running his sprinklers on a Tuesday, while a data center the size of a Costco quietly drains a reservoir so AI can generate a picture of your cat as a medieval knight. And the data center gets a tax incentive for it.
