I can't say I'm surprised. He falls right in the middle of that demographic. I grew up listening to The Mississippi Squirrel and Eric the Awful. I grew up watching The Cosby Show too, and Hercules. Some of the old stuff is still enjoyable, even if the artist isn't. Not all of it tho. I can't watch most Kevin Spacey or Mel Gibson movies

My wife has an autoimmune syndrome that makes stairs painful in the morning. I wake up, make coffee, bring her coffee and a snack, and about an hour later when I know she's awake I bring her breakfast in bed. We eat together and talk about what we'll do for our respective days, and if there's anything we need to coordinate for the day that's when we talk about it. By the time she's done with that she's mobile enough to do some stretches and loosen up enough to walk.

As someone else said, coffee for morning breath, eat breakfast, then brush teeth. It's about being served breakfast as soon as your ready to sit up in bed

It's a funny song highlighting the hypocrisy of televangelists and, by extension, for-profit religion (even if it's non-profit according to the IRS, we know they don't open churches to help people)

Would Jesus be political if he came back to Earth/

Have his second home in Palm Springs and try to hide his worth/

Take money from those poor folks, if he came back again/

And admit he's talked to all those preachers, and say they been a-talkin to him?

Would he wear a pinky ring, would he drive a fancy car/

Would his wife wear pearls and diamonds, would his dressing room have a star?

If he came back tomorrow there's something I'd like to know/

(Would you tell me) would Jesus wear a Rolex on his television show?

I feel your pain. It took me over 5 years to find the correct mix of DnD players from my circle of friends. Adults who could maintain a consistent weekly gaming schedule and not be That Guy™. In our current campaign one friend wound up being a wangrod, but another invited one of his friends that is somehow more of a nerd than I am. So it balanced out. This took a long time and several false starts over the years. One of my players has to remote in on Zoom, which sucks, but we make it work. The point is, keep trying. If you can maintain interest that is lol

I bet you also own but haven't played Star Wars: Imperial Assault, the ttrpg. I opened the box, started reading the rules, and suddenly I was playing poker in RDR2

Something about that picture reminds me of this

So (TW: TMI), I have had very loose stool since starting SSRI's. And when I have to go, I have to go! (One day I sneezed and did what my mother very patiently taught me not to do 43 years earlier.) I also get hot flashes at the same time every day (I'm biologically male), and have started needing to nap in the mid afternoon in order to function the rest of the day. On the plus side I no longer deal with feelings of ennui or that life is pointless, and my stress levels aren't quite as high, which is nice

This is actually the meme that convinced me to get diagnostic testing. Hoping to get medication for ADHD soon, but the antidepressants are nice (except they make me poop. Like, a lot)

I thought everyone had twelve abandoned hobbies and functioned on the very edge of disaster at all times. No i don't have trouble focusing on the task at hand, I can play RimWorld for hours at a time

ADHD memes helped me realize I might be neuro-spicy and seek testing and counseling in my forties.

That doesn't make succumbing to propaganda online any better, but, you know, silver linings

 

A little into about me. I'm in my mid-forties, I live in Ohio, USA, and am on Medicaid. I suspect I have either ADD or ADHD but I can't get diagnostic testing covered by Medicaid. What can I do to get testing or treatment? There are lots of "in-network" providers, but every time I get the focus to try and make an appointment no one answers their phones, or they're not taking new patients, or they're not in network after all. I'm so so so tired
