  • The doctor I see for adhd set themselves up as a PCP for insurance purposes, so each visit is just a copay. You can find co-pays from free to $20 on the ACA Marketplace (Obamacare). Just find an insurance salesperson to help you, they are paid by the insurance companies so you don’t pay for their help!

    Testing cost me a little more and it wasn’t as laborious as this makes it sound. One test was video-recorded while you clicked the mouse whenever something happened on the screen and the other was some questions about your history.


  • The rejection of fanaticism went out the door along with E Pluribus Unum in the 50’s when the Christian nationalists forced their religion on the national motto. Then over the next decade black people were lynched and attacked with fire hoses when they were asking for basic rights.

    They also started conversion camps where they emotionally and sometimes physically and secually abuse minors in conversion camps to attempt to change sexual orientation.

    I believe it was Nixon who helped foem fox News to pull the Republicans further right and we’ve been seeing the consequences of that.

    Basically the fanaticism has always been there, but with the internet and social media, it’s easier for them to make their voice heard.




  • Use your knuckles and the space between from left to right. The higher points are longer months.

    The left pinky knuckle is January, the space between pinky and ring knuckle is February, the ring knuckle is March and so on. The left index knuckle will be July and you continue with August being the right hand index knuckle. All the months that land on a knuckle are 31, while everything else is 30 (except 28 or 29 for February).




  • Remember originally that -1 was 1 BC, meaning 1 year before the birth of christ. The negative numbers are measuring the distance away from 0.

    Edit: in the positive direction, the 1 was 1 AD, meaning the first year of our lord. Just like when talking about the reign of kings/queens, the first year of their reign is 1 and the 14th year that they reigned is 14. I believe the timekeeping for Ages in LOTR may also be similar.

    It’s worth finding a doctor that treats adult ADHD and see the effect that meds have on you.

    I somehow had untreated ADHD, but still managed to get good grades. It was amazing when I started taking meds for ADHD. There have been advances in some of the meds that help lessen the side effects. Also as an adult, you may be able to better perceive the difference between unmedicated and medicated states.

    The biggest hassle is finding someone that treats adult ADHD and is on your insurance. Tons of people around me treat child ADHD, but there’s only a handful of people around that treat adult ADHD.




  • Read up on Genie Plus, they now have a system where you can get a virtual queue starting at 7 AM on the app that will give you a time window to join a ride (kinda like Fast Pass). Then you have to wait a certain amount of time to join another virtual queue. Some rides, like Tron and Guardians of the Galaxy, are virtual queue only. There is also Lighning Lane, that costs around $16 and let’s you basically skip the line.

    I think there’s even a way to link everyone’s accounts together so that you can select the virtual queue or lightning lane for everyone. You definitely can link accounts, so that all your pictures are pushed to everyone’s account. If a picture doesn’t show up from a ride, you can tell them the date, time, and a description of people in the group and they can normally find you and send the pictures into your Disney experience app I hope y’all have a great trip!
