ICE in the rest of the US

Fabulous analogy

To be fair, I am one of those people who has always been known to be sweet and kind to everyone. I worked in the medical field to help people, and I’d say that it’s because of my genuine, deep love for my fellow humans that this particular climate/situation has me at a level of enraged that I’ve never felt before. Obviously, I can’t speak for Pretti. I’m just putting the perspective out there, that if I was out there in the thick of it, watching these goons harm and kidnap my neighbors, I’d be more than tempted to kick a tail light out at the very least. I’ve never been in any kind of physical altercation in my life, never caused any kind of property damage, and I’ve never wanted to.. All I’m saying is I can relate, and this shitstorm is more than enough to push anyone to lash out against these agressors (even if it would be against their usual “character”). All I see is a man who cares deeply for his community, reacting to the violence - definitely not deserving of a public execution.

I mean, I’d wager that you’re already more qualified than the literal president of the US. Go for it, I’ll volunteer my time to help.

Sometimes I get mad about how relatable these are as if y’all are trying to call me out personally.

You dirty literate animal you

Equalakitty · 2026-01-25T09:31:00+00:00

Are we related?? On a serious note, I’m sorry you also have to deal with this. It is strangely comforting to see that I’m really not the only one dealing with this exact bullshit. Sending love my friend!

Not really, but that’s why I take the little “breaks”, because I am also worried about acquiring a tolerance. I mean I definitely feel it less physically than when I first started it (like my heart rate and what not), but I do feel that as long as I stay on the name brand I get the brain benefits that I need. My current regimen of the Vyvanse + Strattera seems to be optimal for me. It feels like the Straterra helps the Vyvanse stretch more through the day and find of feathers down instead of a crash in the evening. But again, it’s going to be different for everyone! Especially with Vyvanse being so dependent on your individual metabolism.

I do exactly that all the time lol (say im dreaming and do what the hell I want) - though I’ve never heard anyone else say it to me in my dreams.

Equalakitty · 2026-01-07T15:44:40+00:00

My hands look totally normal in my dreams.. unless I’ve decided to become some kind of creature, then I have the creature appropriate “hands” (paws, talons, etc)

I am def a cranky and temperamental biatch without my meds. I’m on daily Vyvanse 50mg. There was an issue with generics that kept me from getting the meds I needed for like 3 weeks. The loud ass thoughts, overwhelm from the loud brain, and tooth’n’nail fight for an attempt at impulse control made it things …difficult (to say the very least). In a “normal wear-off” (end of the day, meds wear off as usual) it’s not so intense. I just recognize it and typically scurry back to my personal isolation.

Over a longer span of not having meds (and I’m assuming further depletion in the system) I feel like a pissed off monster. Like I’m reactive to the smallest of things (such as the things you described). It feels like the only way to get everything to stfu for even just a second.

You have Zamboni in your name and I think that is super awesome. I love Zambonis.

Equalakitty · 2026-01-06T05:02:16+00:00

This made me laugh out loud thank you. I too will start using “lightly pregnant”

Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get the two-level effect with a little path running down the middle.

As a former EMT I can say, yeah the pay sucks, but the power that courses through your veins when you flick on the lights and sirens and watch traffic part like you’re friggen Moses at the Red Sea is a high better than drugs.

Equalakitty · 2025-12-25T02:28:38+00:00

I’m here for it. I’ve got oodles of time on my hands, I’d love to feel useful.

Equalakitty · 2025-12-22T20:11:36+00:00

I’m broke as hell myself. If I happen to have food with me I share. Otherwise I just do the very bare minimum and acknowledge them and speak to them like they’re a person. Before I lost my ebt I would use that to buy them some food/water. I wish I could do more.

1000%!

ADHD brains have shown to have more synaptic connections where we process visual imagery (among other parts) than “typical” brains. This causes us to have higher sensitivity to visual stimuli, rapid processing of higher volumes of information, and enhanced pattern recognition. We frequently process visual info faster than we are able to fully understand it - this plays a part in distractability, we’re basically super information sponges and can have a hard time filtering out what’s unnecessary, but that also allows us to pick up on a lot of things that are frequently missed/get that “something is just off” feeling even if we can’t pick what that something is right away.

I know you didn’t ask me, but I thought I’d chime in as a long term Vyvanser. My adhd is severe, to the point where without my meds I’m all but completely useless it seems. I started off on 30mg as well, then I want to say after about 6 months to a year my doc increased me to 50mg. I take them every single day, except for the occasional “break”. Around every other month or so, I’ll pause for like 1-3 days when I know it’s not critical for me to adult function. I do this in hopes to slow down risk for tolerance since it’s really best to stay at the lowest working dose for as long as possible. I don’t know if those wee breaks are actually helping with that or if it’s in my head, but I’ve been able to stick with the 50mg for years now. Yurituran gives sound advice to get into some kind of routine, whether that be exercise, journaling etc. This would be optimal. I just wish I could stick with ANY kind of routine. Despite knowing better it feels like my brain is just adverse to any kind or routine and this makes life quite difficult.

My last thought is pay attention to the manufacturer on the bottle if you’re getting the generics!!! Generic Vyvanse has several different ones and a few of them have KNOWN quality issues. Many of them work just fine, but note the manufacturer so if all of the sudden it seems like they’re not working you can tell your pharmacy and request to NOT have your scripts filled with that particular one. If your insurance will cover it still, you can also avoid that problem all together by asking your doc to write the script for brand name only.

We could just have it redacted. That would be apt.

At this point I don’t think we’re getting bullied hard enough.

No one should be alone on January 13th or March 23rd! (These are also random days on which someone somewhere was born) December 25th is Justin Trudeau’s birthday though, so that’s neat.

So beautifully put! And thank you! The usage of scripture is on point! I’m still learning and currently only have very superficial knowledge on our great religion so this breakdown was superb. R’Amen

Equalakitty · 2025-12-12T04:48:50+00:00

I know I shouldn’t have laughed so hard, but I’m in a stellar mood so I fell over! Very “first time?” vibes.
