  • I think people underestimate how much hustling selling pictures online involves. Finding the sect of your audience who is actually willing to pay, beating your competition while trying to respect the market (in certain communities there are price floors to keep it stable), then attracting your customers without revealing your identity or identifiable backgrounds, while competing with other sellers who don’t care about privacy, then the actual content creation, and after all of that customers really like personal touches, and some conversation. Then if you say or reveal anything that messes with their fantasy, you lose them. Even if you’re a hottie, it’s not easy money. Easier to just get a regular ol job.





  • I love water, easily my most preferred beverage; I’ll choose water even if my meal comes with a drink. But it makes me sick in the middle of the night or in the morning. I don’t get it. It makes me nauseous. If I cut the water with juice or I drink coffee it’s fine. If I wait until like 11:40 am, it’s fine. But if I wake up parched at 4 am and I chug water like I want to, I’ll feel sick. If I drink half a glass before breakfast? Sick. OJ? Fine any time. Coffee, apple juice, 2/3 apple juice with 1/3 water? All fine. What’s wrong with me?




  • Even if something tickles my brain it still doesn’t become a habit. I genuinely don’t think, in my 30s, with dozens of daily systems and all things considered a damn organized life, that I have a single habit. Everything I do is painstaking. Everything is conscious thought. I do laundry every single day and I have to think through the steps. Brushing my teeth is a slog. Figuring out what to eat is so difficult I often skip it despite just eating the same things over and over. If I don’t set alarms, I will forget to feed my kid. Alarms for vitamins that I’m not allowed to dismiss until the vitamin is swallowed. I am struggling to think of a single thing that is automatic. I have to think about opening the blinds every day. I have to think about turning off the lights at night (I think about the consequences of leaving them on to decide which lights I leave on. Every night). Nothing happens out of habit.


  • Did you read what I said? That it’s legal federally if it’s below a certain volume per weight. And the mints are. I’m not suggesting you get high, I’m saying legally obtained mints to microdose THC from hemp has been very helpful for managing my ADHD.

    It kind of reads like you don’t want help you just want to confirm there’s no way you can get help so you don’t feel bad about your ADHD making you unproductive. Well you shouldn’t feel bad either way. We’re all just out here doing our best, you included. Good luck, man.
