Yeah caffeine is a siren song for a select few. It's not necessarily an 'everyone and every form of ADHD thing', but it seems to present together often enough.

In my case it's tricksy because the line between "this much coffee will help sleep" and "this much coffee will make you feel like it re-activated the magic conversion machine the actual ADHD meds just shut down" is about 1 oz one way or another from a 5oz cup (a real small amount in sane units, I didn't convert).

Sensible. One taught you the consensus on what is perceived as the benchmark mind so to speak and a subset of how it 'may go wrong'.

ADHD memes demonstrates just how much more 'hold my beer' that hole of 'may go wrong' gets.

Which is to say a lot. Hearing about the human condition vs seeing it echo in all the clucking time blind chickens.

This. Nowhere is the paradox of tolerance more dangerous than around "ableism" issues; people gotta learn to keep their targets sighted on the actual scum Insidiously using empathy to cross purposes.

The rightfully tolerant protector of the less able does not argue against the Nazi arguing he should be able to punch people without repercussions, they punch the Nazi until he shuts up and go back to equity for everyone else with a clean conscience.

Don't tolerate the intolerant; don't shield them with the benefit of the doubt or stop those with the conviction to stand up for those being told to sit either.

Disregarding the topic and focusing on semantics for half a second out of pure (and weekend freedom stoned) curiosity, why do you value the anecdotal experience of others--and seemingly in one direction only?

My Cousin Vinny's Tomato Canning and Money Laundering Inc, ran by my cousin Vinny and his family of hard looking unrelated men lost VPN access after the last Microsoft update. I'm lying, BUT let's pretend I'm not, what's your next weird hill, I'm curious.

Holy fuck ignore my other comment. "Yeah your reality sounds different from mine, you're wrong." You're just a stunted mind, no longer interesting.

"It depends on the position. If it's entry level or some retail job, yes, fill it out. But management or some other position where it's highly specific, this is an absolute waste of my time"

It's an absolute waste of time, period. No need to stratify it further. McKinsey & Ilk bullshit is commodifying the lowest denominator shit in the name of HR professionals using more buzzwords and less braincells in the hiring process while pretending they're standardizing equity, in my opinion.

That the positions you are ostensibly qualified for allow for a measure of 'hardball posturing' doesn't mean pseudo-hokey HR practices on non-leadership role hiring. aren't filtering the best of the best of people--at filling out useless forms that you'll need to train to critically think anyways.

Only way to combat MBB bullshit is for the in-house managers to grow a spine and speak truth to power after the pre-contractually safe 'I'm so good you want me even if I don't toe the line' that is allowed to every leadership role hire as their moment to feel special to see that reaction.

Of course not. Why would I risk limiting our market share that way?

I demonstrate synergy and the ability to run an agile ship by instead outsourcing development of an app charging 1,000,000,000 people $15 monthly for the privilege of pressing the button and posting that they weren't it this month.

Then I press it, because we must make sure our actions align with increasing shareholder value.

Take it easy on the uneducated y'all. The fact that the failure to get anywhere and still keep meeting is the whole point, is actually not as well known as it ought to be.

Ask yourself dear reader, if world governments didn't have a place to meet and waste time arguing over geopolitics and agreeing to disagree, how would such disagreements take place?

Theoretically, there are less big regional wars and no world wars anymore thanks to the UN's founding as the world government's pressure release valve.

I'll not share my personal stance on the matter, easy to discern as it may be.

Now, these days are the real test of the institution. It was intended to head off another of what's brewing (WW), to be a release vent and that's just fucking laughably not happening as genocide and fascism returns anyways.

So the institution and it's non-currently disingenuous members (US politics has been financially tied to Zionism too long for a clean break) need to call out the bullshit and the other four need to find their balls too because the only winner in a WW3 will be the US elite and rich, again.

Every other oligarch and oligarch wannabe is dreaming if they think our dragons will align with theirs out of dragonhood if Uncle Sam gets geared for global war again; the US will load it's cannons with its fodder stock of idiots and no-other-choicers and will once again do their outmost to take whatever path leads to the most rubble elsewhere and the most firesales on cheap foreign bonds. Just like before.

What's that? You can message through the app to refill all the other ones easily but not the magic one requires calls and in-person visits to remember and juggle? Cool cool cool.
