xkforce , to Not The Onion in JK Rowling slammed for asking if she can be Black if she likes “Motown & fancy myself in cornrows”

She likes slytherins. And her favoritest slytherin of all spent decades bullying children to the point that Neville was more afraid of him than the death eaters that tortured his parents into insanity.

xkforce , to Ask Lemmy in In what subtle (or significant) ways has your hometown changed since your childhood?

*The population is 50 times what it was when I was a kid.

*All the cool places we used to hang out at school as kids are fenced off.

*The big tree that shaded half the yard of the house I grew up in was cut down. The property has been split into 3 separate "apartments" for rent. Everything was repainted and the yard looks nothing like it used to.

*Everything around town has been built up. Most of the empty fields have businesses or houses on them.

*The lake my grandfather and I used to fish at is no longer publically accessible. The lake was choked to death by algae caused by farm run off pollution.

*The main road is paved, has gutters, street lights etc. and isn't a dirt road anymore like it was when I was little.

*Trains don't go through the railroad going through town. They haven't for years so no train watching.

xkforce , to ADHD memes in I just turned into a puddle of goo. Thanks for asking.

If you are expected to be productive, that is by definition, not "free time."

xkforce OP , to ADHD in Anyone else feel like their ADHD was always there but got progressively worse as an adult?

The way they went about getting their point across isn't great but that said, there are legitimate reasons why you don't see everyone leave for another country even if that is exactly what they want to do. Especially if you are someone that struggles to survive here let alone put away a few grand to cover the expenses of moving to another country, do the planning and research needed, tie up loose ends etc.
Living abroad may be good for neurodiverse people but the actual process of leaving the US and settling elsewhere as a permanent resident is not.

xkforce OP , to ADHD in Anyone else feel like their ADHD was always there but got progressively worse as an adult?

It depends. When I first started taking the Straterra generic there were a few days that I had a much shorter fuse than normal but that went away. Mostly I noticed that it was much easier to focus and prioritize.

xkforce OP , to ADHD in Anyone else feel like their ADHD was always there but got progressively worse as an adult?

I was diagnosed at 32 in my last semester of my undergrad. I just ended up with more stress than I could handle and ended up in therapy and thats when I found out.

xkforce , to Games in Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review in order to access the playtest

If enough people believe that it is, they're not going to be as likely to fight things that they should be.

Saying nothing at all is better than only being allowed to say good things and none of the bad. The former doesnt shift opinions in either direction but the latter introduces a pro-buying bias to reviews. Good for the publisher and no one else.

xkforce , to cats in Could you post a photo of your cat and tell me what makes them so special?

He stands on his back two legs, takes both paws and grabs the door knob and tries to turn it. If the door isnt closed that well, i.e somewhat ajar, he can actually open it. The last black cat I had that I inherited from my uncle did the same thing. He'll also "knock" if he can't get through a door. And by "knock" I mean he'll find the nearest loose bit of wood or paneling or something that he can grab hold of, pull it a little then let go so it snaps back and makes a fairly loud noise.

xkforce , (edited ) to Ask Lemmy in Do you consider Lemmy/Reddit (and similar platforms) to be social media?

Op you can follow Reddit and Lemmy users just the same as on Facebook or Twitter. So by your own definition, Reddit and Lemmy are forms of social media.

xkforce , to cats in Could you post a photo of your cat and tell me what makes them so special?

This is my cat Cygnus. I named him after Cygnus x-1 which is thought to be a black hole. He's a very very smart cat. He does tricks eg. shake, opens doors etc.

This is Cygnus. He is a superior lifeform.
