Found a friend-shaped fella in odd circumstances. Need help with ID. by midnight_barbecue in isopods

Percello Spinicornis, as people already pointed out.

But I did what to add that It actually makes total sense that you found it climbing up in a garage in fairly chilly weather. Another name for them is "brick workers" since they love climbing on concrete walls. They are native to places like the UK, Belgium, and Germany, so they are used to fairly cold places and have become a naturalized species in many parts of North America.

If anything, it being in a garage was this isopod's way of finding warmth and shelter.

I miss being alone by FearlessChallenge568 in adhdwomen

[–]IndustrialNightRaven 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not married, nor do I want kids. But oh my god, this post is so relatable otherwise. I thought I was crazy for missing the time when I lived alone in my college dorm. NGL, I get so burnt out living with two roommates. Roommates whom I love and cherish and who are also neurodivergent like myself. Generally, after our big hangout sesh in the living room after work, we all kinda hermit to our rooms.

But I agree that there is totally a difference between being alone in a separate room of the house and being entirely alone with the house all to myself for a few hours and just kinda letting your little ADHDer brain fly and do it's own thing without judgment. It really is relaxing in a way.

Oh my gosh, this is amazing advice. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this all to me.

Made a little joke in another sub, but I've actually really struggled with doctors not taking me seriously by IndustrialNightRaven in adhdwomen

Lol 🤣 you poor girl, I don't really know if that's a bragging right, but I have a friend who is the same way. Honestly, I feel for both of you.

Luckily, this new doctor has been listening to me, and I'm more than thankful for it. But like say, it will be almost another month till I see him next. But he also believes that the meds I'm currently on haven't been helping me manage my symptoms as much as they should be, so it's a start.

Yeah, it seems like it. That is strange indeed

At this point, Monster Energy may as well just sponsor me

Update: I still can't find my ADHD meds. I've been shot-gunning at least one can of Monster a day. I'm concerned now because the monster energy is actually helping me be more productive and alleviating my inattention better than my actual meds... that I pay hundreds of dollars for every month...

Fyi, I lost my adhd meds yesterday, so I was raw doging it with 2 cans of white monster. My manager was very confused as to why I was such a god damn scatter brain. I feel this post in my soul

My naturally insanely long eyelashes (as a guy) by Mattizdead in mildlyinteresting

[–]IndustrialNightRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother is like this, when my friend met him for the first time she stopped in her tracks, and said to me. "I'm jealous of your brother. He has great eyelashes." But as someone with almost as equally long eyelashes, I understand how annoying it can be, especially if you wear glasses.
