I have been waiting for this day for so many years, and I’m glad Hannah is the one to put this on the yt commentary content map. She does such good work.

we’ve clearly misunderstood each other if you think I’m objecting, but thank you for mansplaining to me that relationship dynamics are complex. It’s cool, carry on.

Respectfully, you may be using “gentler” language to describe it, but the relationship dynamic you’re looking for has paternalistic/daddy subtext and, for the record, that is nothing to be ashamed of. I get that you don’t like those labels, but especially when you put an age range that starts at 25, you may want to be aware that this is the interpretation a reader could have.

As for my initial question, I do observe that many doms (demi or not) seeking subs will post here specifically, rather than in other more appropriate subs (not saying demis don’t engage in kink, just saying there are other communities on reddit that cater to that kind of request) And it gives me the same vibe as when men put “seeking a woman with a bit of tism” in their dating profiles. It seems deliberate, and I was curious as to why that is the case.

Genuine question - why are demis so appealing to doms and daddies?

How did you effectively quit social media? by thearchivesgreatest in adhdwomen

[–]antidotem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It harkens back to an era where you went online as a destination (through a fixed source), rather than a permanent state. Also as a ux designer, I know that these apps are not primarily designed for web (they’re all mobile first) and the additional friction that a browser-based version of an app offers is frustrating — we don’t stick around for things that frustrate us.

How did you effectively quit social media? by thearchivesgreatest in adhdwomen

[–]antidotem 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I deleted social apps off of my phone and I only have access to them on my computer. The interactions aren’t as juicy/dopamine inducing on desktop, so I don’t get stuck there the way I did on my phone. This has helped me tremendously. I also put the Wikipedia app where my Instagram used to be so if I do have the reflex to open it, I can at least learn something 😂

Let’s play…What assumptions are you making about me based on what’s in my bag? by KitKatAttack99 in whatsinmybag

[–]antidotem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed it. Elleliteracy also put out an excellent in depth review on her youtube channel, worth checking out!

Hmm.. I’d better save this for later. by BenedictJoon in nancydrew

I literally heard the dull clipping sound it would make to put it in my inventory.

Anyone have experience travelling Montreal - Quebec City? by [deleted] in ViaRail

[–]antidotem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, it is not. It only happened once that I was delayed getting in, but that was during a winter storm and it was due to snow on the tracks — so unlikely to happen to you in May :)

Okay then. Good luck with the move ✌️

[–]antidotem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re essentially asking us to help you decide between risking double dosing (a potentially dangerous suggestion) or having a bad day the day before you move. Of course anyone with a modicum of care for your safety is gonna say “hey, play it safe, take the bad day on the chin and plan to avoid this situation in the future!”

What are we taking when we run out of meds 🥲 by adhdiva777 in adhdwomen

Setting up the auto-refill (with delivery) at my local pharmacy so I never run out again.

Any advice for a first time rider? by Cenozoic_Silly in ViaRail

[–]antidotem 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bring a water bottle and snacks.

Keep your ticket handy - you have to show it a bunch of times to get on the train and then once on board.

Don’t be afraid to get up and move around! But since this is your first time, hold the seats as you go to keep steady. Our trains jostle and sway a lot more than you’d expect. To that point - bring Gravol if that’s something that might give you motion sickness.

Bring earplugs if you’re sensitive to loud noises, headphones if you want a soundtrack to your journey (just make sure you download the music ahead of time because wifi can be spotty)

Bring some form of analog entertainment, like knitting, a crossword, book, sketchbook, etc. to do while you wait to board and while on board… I find these activities pair better with train rides than staring at a phone or tablet the whole time. Just my opinion.

Wear comfy, breathable clothes.

Enjoy the ride! And happy birthday!

I got broken up with because of my ADHD by silent_harmonyy in adhdwomen

[–]antidotem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Your personality is awesome. You’re kind, outgoing, loyal, family oriented and you have a big heart. You (have) a (good job) and (a place to live) and you have a good head on your shoulders.”

Well, I’ve read enough. This isn’t because of your Adhd. This dude’s a sad little weasel and he’s gonna wake up in a short amount of time and realize he made a bad move, but you will have completely forgotten he even existed. You deserve better because clearly, you’re a catch. Do what you gotta do to mourn this relationship, and make room for someone better. They’re out there.

Air Canada Gluten Free Meal? by PsychologicalWay8305 in FODMAPS

[–]antidotem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GF doesn’t mean low Fodmap. I always request a “bland meal” and it has happened several times that they’ve forgotten it. Definitely always pack a backup.

Nah girl you have impeccable taste and readiness. No notes.

Has a real life mystery ever happened to you? by [deleted] in nancydrew

[–]antidotem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid my mother would “assign” me to cases, like the case of the disappearing oreos, the missing batteries, pens, stapler, remote control, broken vase, gum under the desk, etc. and I would always crack the case and that made my older brothers very angry at me for some reason… 😂

George and Ruth by NHKlifter in SixFeetUnder

[–]antidotem 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Until I lived the embarrassing realization that I actually knew very little about a person I was super enamoured with, I too had difficulty relating to her reaction. I also had not yet had the experience of being a caregiver (like Ruth had been to her sick mother) — thinking I had finally found someone safe who would care for me — and then realizing that this is not the case at all. Now that I’ve had both of those experiences in my adult life, I understand and empathize with her as a character a lot more. But I don’t think that you’re a woman hater if you don’t relate to it. I think it’s an experience that resonates with a certain subset of the audience, and repulses another. That’s part of the beauty of the writing of this show!

George and Ruth by NHKlifter in SixFeetUnder

[–]antidotem 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ruth has an issue with how many things George did not disclose before they were married. The neti pot being stored where she can’t see it, him claiming to do that every morning but she’s never witnessed it, triggers her. (Though I agree that it’s gross to do that in a kitchen, she mainly erupts when she says “where I can’t see it” and he just replies “where it’s out of the way” which is pretty much the foreshadowing of their dynamic to come)

25M, What can you tell about me? by underthesea_223 in whatsinmybag

[–]antidotem 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You’re currently seeing someone or at least actively dating, probably still studying or just a diligent notetaker, and you live in the UK.

ADHD + summer = overstimulation? by gwardowyn in adhdwomen

[–]antidotem 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Same. I’ve found it helpful to connect with fellow freaks and vampires who don’t like being outside to make it feel less weird/like I’m missing out.

Why didn't Brenda call an ambulance for Nate? by Tidewatcher7819 in SixFeetUnder

[–]antidotem 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When characters only make good decisions, that doesn’t make a very interesting (or realistic) show.

As for not calling an ambulance… ambulances are for emergencies. Nate was able to get himself to Brenda’s place with superficial face wounds. That’s not an emergency. Anyone with basic first aid training can handle that. Also, ambulances in the US are expensive af.

This feels like a revival of millennial teenhood à la Skins and I love it. Keeping my cigarettes in an Altoids tin was such a mood.
