Boost. I used the old reddit version forever and it was far and away my favorite.

Upper management in the hot seat, as usual. What did he do this time?

I understand what you're saying, but Christmas is quite literally the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. It very much falls into the "religious" category.

The only thing that it could be besides a Christian holiday is a capitalist holiday. Both of them aren't great, and should quite frankly be treated as equals if you're trying to remain neutral.

Yo I think he's meme-targeting me.

Dude.. he travels

It was my Discord bio for like 3 years lmao. I have switched to "the fooot"-based humor now.

This was my favorite meme for so damn long, until I saw this one on lemmy recently.

Thank God I won't be homeless for Christmas, that gets to wait until January now. :)

Just kidding, I'm still renting because I can't afford to save for a down-payment. :)))

Witcher 3. Spoilers here, btw.

I will never forget riding my horse up to The Baron's residence after losing his child and his wife and seeing him hanging from the tree. They do such a good job making his character barely tolerable at first, then make him slowly grow on you after you learn he's just like you. Scared, confused, and lost. He lashes out because he's trying to protect his family, but the weight of losing it is the end is too much for him.

Truly, what a masterclass in narrative design, and it's only a sliver of what that game has to offer.

I make it a point to forget scanning half of my shit there. It's less about self-checkout (I quite honestly don't mind it all that much), and more about the insane cost of living now.

I refuse to spend $30 on milk, eggs, cheese, bread, and butter.

I ended up needing to take the latter of the 2 options, and I wouldn't wish that torture on my worst enemies.

Straight out of HS I went to Uni, and it always felt like I wasn't doing it for myself. 2.5 years and $20k later I left hastily, and went to college after a few months off. I didn't get it right in the first year, but I went into game dev after that and barely squeaked by. Even with it being a very strong interest of mine, it was very difficult to drag myself through it. I met some incredible friends along the way that helped keep me focused enough, but it was hard.

Fast forward 3 years, and here I am now, diagnosed with mixed ADHD, medicated, with more focus than I've ever had. Its still not great... I have 27 years of bad habits to break, but it's getting better.

One of the biggest things I can offer as advice is know your enemy. ADHD is tricky to deal with, but not impossible. If you have the option to make itbeasier to manage, I'd try to find a way and make it happen. I can't speak to the autism part, but the ADHD is something that you can manage. It just takes some time.

Clearly you are trying not to make a big deal about it, and I respect that, but maybe make a pinned post on BoostForLemmy? Make sure you're not actively trying to fleece people?
