My guess? Sleep deprivation. I'm not a doctor, but I personally have found that sleep debt wrecks my brain chemistry, for up to twice the number of days I got less than 8 hrs of sleep (or whatever my baseline is at that time). Losing at least an hour a night for six nights in a row would definitely make me garbage for at least a day or two, probably more like a week.

Granted, ADHD is not the only issue I have that for which this is relevant, but even NT people have trouble focusing when they're really tired, sooo...

Oh dear lord, that is my least favorite thing about pill caddies, lol. Especially when the labels have worn off, and I'm sitting there poking the braille like: "You'd think I would recognize the patterns by now, given that the labels disappeared like, a year ago..."

... actually, no, that's my second least favorite thing about pill caddies. My actual least favorite is that mine are not waterproof. Ask me how I know, lol.

I think mood disorders can affect sense of time, for one, though it sounds like you have good reasons to wonder about having ADHD.

But don't forget, it's not necessarily "ADHD or what," it could be "ADHD and what." Some ADHD treatments are relevant to other conditions, and vice versa, but there are some overlaps that require a different approach from straight ADHD, so it's best to keep an open mind.

I think Costco has a shipping service, though certain medications can't be shipped. I'd give them a call, and see if they can get meds to your area.

No, I couldn't. I have no idea how to operate the Saturn V.

Glad I could help! And I hope the campaign goes well, it's a fun concept.

I personally wouldn't trust the website, either. It might be possible to block all the direct trackers, but they can learn a lot about you by what you do on the service, from who you follow to how long you spend on the site. If you have an account, you're paying for it in data.

...if you're okay with paying in data, that's your business, not mine, but don't assume blocking trackers is full protection.

No, they'll start raising rates for people with weight loss apps on their phone, or refusing coverage for people who made too many phone calls to an oncologist, or got a lot of texts from their pharmacy saying "X prescription is ready." Companies collecting medical data is very, very scary for a lot of people.

If you have a smart light bulb or thermostat you control through your phone, they probably know when you went to bed last night, and approximately what your electric bill was last month--unless you get electric bills by email, in which case they might know exactly what your electric bill was last month.

Confirmed, unless they have done it in the past few days, not yet. TechCrunch quoted the head of Instagram as saying that they haven't implemented ActivityPub yet. There was no specific reason why not, and no timeline for adding that functionality. I think we have at least a few months, since there are a lot of other missing features that should be higher on the to-do list.

Wait, are there people who aren't advertisers who do prefer Threads over Mastodon or Lemmy? Most of the reviews I have seen are bad, and the good ones seem to be from people who haven't tried the fediverse, though I couldn't swear to that.

Thanks, bot, but I personally have had better luck putting the full URL in my instance's search bar. The version starting in "!" comes up when someone on my instance is already subscribed to the community, but sometimes not if I'm the first one interested. But I will edit with the other version as well.
