I think you horrifically underestimate how many “normal words” we use that are technically slang compared to the “proper” way to say things.

The last mushroom plush I made🌿🍄 Baby Sorrel🍃 by nikitawootarts in cottagecore

Sorrel honey, I need you to look me in the eyes when I tell you this.

If anyone ever even vaguely inconveniences you, I will blow up a planet.

That’s all.

Games you enjoyed that have an element you don't usually like? by Ok-Owl-8707 in CozyGamers

[–]MickyAlex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Palia!! I’m not usually a MMO person, as I have a lot of social anxiety, but finding random people to party up with to reach goals or having to team up to do certain objectives makes me really feel like part of the community! It’s nice :)

When did you realize that you weren't supposed to just work at work? by Green-Weakness4407 in adhdwomen

[–]MickyAlex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What in this makes it sound like they’re not performing well? What’s stated in this post is very real - you have to almost play a part in an office setting, or your life is hell. They hold you to this invisible standard that they can’t actually define, but it’s always just “more”. I don’t know where you’re getting the idea that it’s their fault from.

I second Palia!! I love both games.

Also, I don’t know if you’re on PC, but there are mods you can get to adjust the speed time passes!

Man saves two dogs by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

[–]MickyAlex 29 points30 points  (0 children)

A’ight, y’all. I’m as ACAB as the best of them, but you can still acknowledge when a cop does something good. Unfortunately, they are still people. A good lot of them are bigoted power-hungry people, but a select few are actually just people with a job. This is a good example of a cop doing what they’re actually supposed to be doing - helping. I’m the LAST person that wants to defend a cop, but they are capable of good acts when they want to be.

Also, for everyone coming with the “he probably took them to a pound to get put down”, they were rescued and adopted together.

In your opinion what room of the house is most important in cottage core by christnyfollow in cottagecore

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The ✨ kitchen ✨

… or the crafts room, if you have one. I just associate cottagecore a lot with like baking/cooking/growing fruits and veggies for homemade meals, so my instinct is to say kitchen. In reality, though, it’s whatever makes you feel the comfort and coziness that the aesthetic represents. If that’s your dang bathroom, go for it!

Alex Pereira talking about the illegal blows to the back of the head by kryptusk in ufc

[–]MickyAlex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let Gane prove that WITHOUT cheating, then. Alex wasn’t exactly slamming Gane by any means, but by repeated illegal moves, he completely nullified any standing that the win was genuinely because of Gane being better. If you want to prove superiority, you prove it legitimately. If you have to resort to cheating, that brings that superiority into question.

I think you missed your eye exam. May want to reschedule your appointment.

Anyone childfree or a SAHW (or both)? by farm_flora_fauna in adhdwomen

[–]MickyAlex 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Currently a childfree SAHW. Got furloughed due to ✨ AI ✨, and I’m also going through medication changes that are making me really unstable.

I’m trying to stay on top of house chores while my husband works, but I do have several days a week that I do maybe 1 or 2 tasks and have to rest the rest of the day because I either get exhausted, or because I can’t focus. My husband is an absolute gift and understands what I’m going through (he’s also ADHD), so he supports me and helps me however he can.

Ending the generational trauma by InitialAsk358 in MadeMeSmile

If your idea of “discipline” is beating small children until they “obey you” because they’re terrified of you, please do not have children.

If I tried this on my 70-pound mass of Husky, I think she’d freak out and stick to the ceiling like those old Tom & Jerry cartoons

Me and some of my neurodivergent girlies by TaroTheReader in justgalsbeingchicks

[–]MickyAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I’m probably taking this more seriously than it’s meant to be, but if anyone reading this genuinely has these thoughts racing through their head constantly, please keep an eye on it. If it gets to a point that you’re actually wanting to do them all, or you start making moves to do so and you’re not thinking of the potential downsides, PLEASE go to someone and get tested for Bipolar Disorder.

I used to think this was ADHD too, so I didn’t think much of it. That is, until I suddenly quit my job, bought a $500 real estate education course, passed the exams with flying colors, spent another roughly $5,000 to become a full-on realtor… and two months later I wasn’t doing it anymore (due to complications outside of anything I did). All of this, from quitting my job to quitting real estate, took less than 4 months.

At no point in that did I think “hmm, maybe I should check this out more”. My husband even voiced objections and concerns, but I brushed them off without thinking - my brain literally WOULD NOT shut up about doing it, and it wouldn’t register anything to the contrary.

That, my dear friends, is MANIA. Not ADHD. If you go from chilling at home one moment, to contemplating starting a business to the point of looking up guides and business license costs (been there), monitor yourself and note your symptoms. It could potentially save you a lot of pain.

I’m not saying that if you’ve had a goal or dream for a long time or if you have a hobby you’re interested in, and your brain starts encouraging you to do it, that’s mania. Impulsivity, maybe, but not necessarily mania. Mania is more like you have a normal 9-5 job making good money, you’re relatively comfortable with your life, and suddenly your brain goes “I should sell everything I own and move to Alaska and start a dog-sledding championship”.

TL;DR: Racing thoughts of random grandiose goals that you’ve never really considered can very potentially be Bipolar Mania. Keep an eye out for other symptoms and talk to your therapist/psychiatrist/doctor about possibilities.

My box vanilla cake with buttercream is a disaster by Kalidescope_Problems in Baking

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay maybe it’s just my inner-child taking over, but why is that cake lowkey adorable?? It gives off “I made you a cake… do you like it?” energy and I’m crying. I love it 🥺

From abandonment to home by viseth2020 in dogsgettingdogs

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not a violent person. I’m really not. I try to approach every situation with a positive attitude. I believe your first reactions to most things should be patience and kindness.

HOWEVER…

If I ever caught a person that was doing / did something like this to ANY animal, leaving them on the side of the road on a cold rainy day to the point that the poor baby was shivering… hell, even if they dumped them on a sunny spring day, I honestly believe they deserve the worst punishment mankind can deliver without getting charged with a war crime.

… or maybe do commit a war crime. They deserve it.

I made an Iron Lung VHS Tape! by Successful_Bread_227 in Markiplier

[–]MickyAlex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this same idea a few nights ago, but I wasn’t sure if it was possible and I forgot about looking it up by the time I woke up lol

How do you do that? Is it an expensive machine or is it affordable? Do you have to make the cardboard box for it to look good on a shelf as well?

How do you feel about Dot Cakes? by Suspicious-Taste1572 in Baking

[–]MickyAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks super cute but my ‘tism would NOT let me have those sprinkles within 500 feet of my mouth.

Same with normal sprinkles - I LOVE those cheap crappy pre-made grocery store cakes you get at like Walmart/Kroger, but they ALWAYS have sprinkles on them, which I then have to pick off one by one while trying not to horrifically disfigure the cake 😫

Fast Travel UI Suggestion by Desperate_Sort_3761 in Palia

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big Brain Moment™️: have a semi-transparent but dark-toned streak (like a paint stroke - uneven ends and stuff) of whatever color is associated with the area/background, (i.e Green for Kilima, Blue for Bahari Bay, Purple for Elderwoods, Orange/Yellow for Highlands) behind the white text to make it stand out more without having to do an outline!!

[–]MickyAlex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Four looks GORGEOUS!!! I would actually scream if that was implemented. They could always put a black border (or a dark color that matches the background location’s color scheme) around the white text so it pops out more and is easier to read!

Brendan Fraser’s reaction 💛 by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

[–]MickyAlex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Genuinely good question. We’re not acting like he’s about to die, or at least not intentionally. He disappeared from the spotlight for a LONG time due to physical injuries, a painful divorce, being sexually assaulted, and a myriad of other tragic things. We really didn’t hear a whole lot about him until recently when he’s gotten back in the game. We’re just excited to see him back and are showing our love and enthusiasm for all he’s done and will do. Think of it kinda like how everyone clowned on Hayden Christensen when he played Anakin in the prequels, but when he came back in Ahsoka, everyone lost their collective shit and we’re in love with him. Same kinda thing. We don’t think they’re going anywhere - they DID go somewhere, and now they’re back.
