that’s awesome, I’m sure she was really grateful to have you there helping her so much!

wacom is a company that produces drawing tablets. you know, hardware tools for artists. it is their job to market specifically to artists.

every single month I have a small panic attack about how my meds have stopped working and I’m going to have to increase my adderall dose and what if I hit the top limit and they still don’t work and my symptoms are worse than when I started the meds… and then three days later it’s like oh yeah it’s just my stupid period 🙄 things have gotten goofier timing wise with my iud messing with my cycle, but same idea. it’s a low dose of progesterone but I think my body dislikes it regardless.

edut: more specifically, i have much more trouble motivating myself to be productive and focusing. I do have some depressed mood issues around that time too but they’re not really impacted by the adderall

in high school i saw this xkcd and didn’t understand the joke. next thing you know i’m trying to dual boot ubuntu, writing down error messages so i can look them up on the library computers and download alternative gpu drivers onto a flash drive (we didn’t have internet at home back then and i couldnt drive yet… so debuggging issues usually took multiple days). weirdly, i enjoyed that experience and here i am ~16 years later. i use linux at home and at work :)

oooh i live n the front range and didnt know the botanical gardens had this winter event, looks cool 😍
