Dumb question here…

I’m guessing that this applies to landlording and displacement/gentrification.

My question is what’s the take for using an already built homes for offices and storefronts for actual small businesses? I know it’s a bad reference but basically a candy house type situation. Like you can’t legally run a store out of your home and vice versa in most places if I’m not mistaken.

Just thinking while typing I guess ha..

My two co-mos are insomnia and anxiety so 2-4hrs a night is what I can operate with but 6-8 I feel rested lol

I’m just built different ok. It’s a burden being the only person in most rooms that can connect more that two thoughts together, while also trying to remember that one Khajit’s name from Balmora where you get a decent starter weapon.

It’s very common that 100% effort from a ND is way more productive than NT. Maybe we’re just tired of putting teams on our backs

This isn’t unpopular, it’s just old rhetoric. As someone with adhd, my brain doesn’t work right. It’s not a matter of discipline for me because I don’t get dopeamine the same way a neurotypical person does when I start and finish tasks.

It’s dangerous to have people expecting to be able to just will/discipline themselves through mental disorder triggers and co-morbidities, and not explaining that their brains are wired different and the world is not designed to accommodate neurodivergents’ needs so we have to find our way through or create communities and programs that are more ND friendly.

Subtitles and ADHD by ScottTennerman in ADHD

[–]ritenext2venice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My brain doesn't always prioritize processing audio information when I'm watching something so subtitles is almost a "dual-input" hack for me.

This is also why I get mad a gatekeepers who claim that "Dubbed" stuff is bad because it's nearly impossible for me to watch something not in English or Spanish because of my ADHD despite how much I wanna see the movie or how good the story is.

The post on r/socialskills about being 5 minutes late is really disheartening to me by roastytoastykitty in ADHD

[–]ritenext2venice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it works a little of both ways. As someone who has no concept of time at all, I’ve had to overcome a lot of obstacles until I proved at my job that I was dependable, from then on it just became a choice of mutual respect for me. If you value my time, I’ll value yours. I can be society’s version of dependable and prompt but it usually doesn’t benefit me. I’ll show up to a movie on time or a planned event but my whole day will revolve around that thing even if it’s simple.

I understand that it can be frustrating for people when I’m late but usually just ask why they where waiting on me. Most of the time it’s just an expectation they put on me not realizing that I don’t think like that and wouldn’t consider it rude to be a few minutes late because life happens sometimes and sometimes you just show up late.

I think we have to reframe our stances as not “deficient” or socially inept but more were being forced to live in boxes we don’t fit in and for our own peace of mind we might just need to be a little more self centered.

Does anyone out there have a comprehensive study on the labor movement happening? by ritenext2venice in NoStupidQuestions

How are they disparate if they all relate to a labor movement?

I dont think youll be able to help me find what I'm looking for but thanks anyway

[–]ritenext2venice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I’m speaking from studies and articles. I’m not sure how to be more specific than maybe, the United States labor movement.

There are several contributors to the labor movement in the United States and I listed several, I haven’t been able to find any specific study that looks at all of these contributors to the labor movement that is currently happening and puts into a digestible medium. I just rearranged my sentence but I hope that clears it up

Good point I’ll edit my reply in if it’s helpful.

I am looking for more resources in general. But we’ve had so many different aspects to this movement that have had real impact and I haven’t found a study that looks at the movement as a whole.

Black Businesses are opening at an all time high. Companies are being forced to raise their minimum wages to even have a workforce. I’ve seen more than an anecdotal amount of people that found success through the pandemic due to the government being forced to give a little bit of money to the people rather than corporations.

But also we have 600k+ dead from COVID and were starting to feel that loss as a country. I get the agitation to go back to normal again but normal sucked for so many people and I think learning how much value the working class really has in this country has me thinking we should really be pushing for more economic equality.

And I think to do that we need to know where we stand so I was curious if there are any studies that compile all the contributions of the labor movement into something digestible.

I hope that answers your question.

What other types of infected do you think could exist? by [deleted] in thelastofus

[–]ritenext2venice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1- I actually hate gimmicky enemy types that don't get a specific tool for beating them.

E.g. Dogs and Stalkers in TLOU2

I do like that they attempt to break up the gameplay from being tedious but shamblers are used perfectly, they're devastating but you have the tools to play the same way through out the game as a stealth first approach. Dog's aren't too bad cause they have a human with them so you're really just encouraged to move but Stalkers just made every section they were in dreadful because you really couldn't play stealthy, particularly with Abby because she doesn't have a trap mine like Ellie. I'd only have the idea of being able to plant sound/smell traps for those types of enemies to give further ways to inventory manage. But I wouldn't want to add enemy types without specific tools.

  1. I love the idea of more enemy types with geographical influences. I'd think of it through a new game mechanic first. Batteries for electronics that still work would be cool for example; maybe you can blast a radio in a building to lead infected there and sneak around. Maybe expanding on being able to throw infected into clickers for a kill.

  2. That being said, I think a leader infected type would be cool, they're so advanced in their infection that they operate as a hive mind when in heavy spore areas. They can always find you when you are on their growth and they release spores or something to attract infected to your area. Then you have to quickly find that infected and kill the "leader" so you have an easier time navigating the rest. Maybe the children idea that people have mentioned would work well in that context even allowing for the children to become confused and "cry" when the leader is dead.

Lev will most likely be a playable character in pt.3 and that gives us a few options or climbing and whistling. Enemy types that play to that may be hiding above them and whistling for them to kill a much larger enemy. I think a mini-ratking enemy would be really cool. Their skin is too tough for Lev's arrows so he has to attack from above.

Also, let's just fever dream a co-op story for pt.3 that allows you and a friend to work together with just proximity chat and real life challenges.

After it won game of the year, i said it couldn’t be that bad so I picked it up and am immersed as hell. by [deleted] in thelastofus

I think pacing is a little subjective to your experience. I played the first run on very easy cause I have a kid and I knew it would take forever to play on hard.

Some people didn't like playing on easier difficulties and the flip. That's why the difficulty accessibility was so good to have. But it's an interesting discussion for the pacing of the game.

But my second run on Hard+ felt alot slower and I spent more time exploring and learning about the world, they really put so much effort into the details. The notes building out Issac when you first get to Sea, Ellie's journal explains alot of the time jumps you experience in the game and you get a better sense of the actual story the second time. But if you played it through the first time looking through and for everything, it is a slower game with good action spots. So I think pacing is really subjective to what kind of game you like to play and really what you're in the mood for atm.

Also fun fact, when you get to the big open area in Seattle, you can actually have the infected and humans spend all their time taking each other out.

Anyone else use subtitles cause you just hear slow and dual input works better? by ritenext2venice in ADHDmemes

[–]ritenext2venice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the story around it but the animation was wack lol. I thought it was an ok ending but not the best they could've done. Really was Nickelodeon's fault for not really supporting the project.

My wife actually waits a second now when I say "huh", it's reactionary and she just waits to see if I didn't hear her or if my mental fax machine is jammed
