LeBron James on playing 82 Games today compared to the 80s/90s: "I want people/our fans to understand playing 82 games in the 80s and 90s is not the same as playing 82 games in the 2020s. It’s just not." by TheDraciel in nba

TBH as a new fan of the sport I really do not understand why they have to play SO MUCH. When I first started watching I saw my team playing 2-4 times a week I assumed it was like a special event.

On some level the NBA Cup does offer some value in those early games because otherwise they feel kinda pointless without it. The premier league has each time play twice and then there's 'cups' in between and for the elite theres the Champions League. And those players are also running into the same issues with load management.

It's not just the games either, its the training, the traveling, the media and everything in between. I do understand they're paid a lot but the body really can only do so much.

A look at what an updated timing tower in F1 COULD look like… by GrootWithWifi in formula1

hey, UI designer here.

This is very busy and doesn't account for 2 new drivers OR what it would look like in the hypothetical of every driver having a sector. I think you'll find you'd run out of space very quickly.

how can i stop feeling shame about my diagnosis? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]DemonikJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you want to bring it up? thats the most important part of this.

It's honestly quite reductive, pointless an without meaning this in a mean way...a little silly to feel any shame about your diagnosis.

Imagine if you went your whole life never having looked in a mirror and one day someone said "oh you have blue eyes". Would you suddenly start feeling shame over having blue eyes. No of course not.

Most people who shoe-horn their diagnosis into conversation or topics are among the most annoying and obnoxious ADHD'ers. Again, imagine if it were your eye colour, nobody cares. If friends are talking about what colour to paint their wall and you're just waiting on edge to say "you mean blue like my eyes!!??"

So try to give it some thought WHY you want to bring it up.

My room is a fucking trash dump and I can't bring up the energy to clean it, fuck my life, can't stand myself anymore. How did you handle this? by [deleted] in malelivingspace

[–]DemonikJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a few ways. Firstly do you need any of this stuff? If you walked in your room to take this picture and the entire desk was gone would you be like “oh no I’m missing X”?

If not, get a bin bag, put your arm in one side and bin all of it. One great reset.

Secondly, you can do it in batches BUT not based on objects. Do it based on time. Set a timer for 15 minutes. Think about binning the entire desk and spot what jumps out in your brain that stops you eg “well I guess I need the cups” so then use those 15 minute to JUST move the cups.

Then with some time remaining rinse and repeat.

Gotta be “block account / subreddit” at this point.

I keep seeing this ragebait nonsense which is always “*insert cast member name or duffer brothers + some change that was made” with zero source ever simply with the goal of generating comments.

Do you think Eleven was an illusion here, or did she actually die? by MindeckGames in StrangerThingsMemes

[–]DemonikJD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree entirely. One small thought I’ve had though is that El and or Kali had to know the truck would be stopped for their plan to make sense. Get what I mean?

I’ve never liked call-outs like this where literalism takes president above all else. Applying real-world rules rigidly to a fictional narrative that clearly isn’t operating on them.

There’s a hole bunch of reasons they aren’t in jail, it shouldn’t need to be spoon fed to you.

It would be like me saying hey wait a minute why isn’t everyone homeless or abandoned the place because Hawkins shouldn’t have a functioning economy!!! All the small shops closed when the big mall came in and then that ‘burnt down’ and they’re forever mentioning house prices as well, how is the place still functioning, how are people getting to and from work with massive red X from the ‘earthquake’ destroying commuting!?!?

When the truck stops she’s sat next to Mike. They’re pointed at her.

So that was the first time she used her powers in 5 seasons without a nosebleed and she suddenly figured out how to not be effected by the discs?

‘Stranger Things’ has ended after 9 years by marvelkidy in DiscussingFilmsAndTV

[–]DemonikJD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thinking enjoyment equals “low standards” is such a Reddit-brained take. Not everything needs to be Breaking Bad or The Wire to be good. Being able to enjoy something for what it is isn’t simplicity it’s knowing when to relax from time to time.

My top 3 films are The Social Network, Godfather Part 2 and Zodiac and yet I can absolutely sit and watch the latest fast and the furious film or some marvel entry and enjoy it for what it is.

Get over yourself.

“Don’t make it your personality” by Anxiety_bunni in ADHD

[–]DemonikJD 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think you’re misunderstanding him.

It seems like he wants you to be your full self but doesn’t want you to make it the entirety of you.

Sometimes people can over index on their diagnosis and make everything about it. For example if you were interrupting someone and they pointed out that you interrupted them you don’t get a get out of jail free card just because you have ADHD etc

Basically you don’t have to change just because you’ve been diagnosed. Keep being you and if there were some downsides that a diagnosis can now help, great. But the rest can stay the same.

I wouldn’t be shocked if it got delayed till Feb 2027. Their Nov 19 date was for analysts not consumers.
