I need to find the ADHD/autism community on here, primarily the activist types and folks dealing with being ND plus perimenopausal. Still don't have my Threads account back. :(

Really irritated right now, as all of a sudden my Threads account has been suspended and I have to confirm that I'm a real person. I use Threads the most when I'm lonely and frustrated, which I am right now, and now I don't have my outlet. Phooey.

This should have been the cover of the Time person of the year 2024 edition, NOT the piece of dog crap they actually slapped on it.

@seananmcguire.bsky.social I was in my uni’s bookstore this week and noticed that Every Heart a Doorway was on the shelf in the English section, which means it’s being used as a required reading text in a class. :)

I want to spend more time on Bluesky, but keep finding myself on Threads more because my friends list over there is more developed the way I want it to be. I need to fix that, but without the algorithm Threads has, I’m not sure how yet.

Posting simply bcause I feel like showing off my babies today. this is Lundi (left) and Asa (right). Lundi is an Icelandic Sheepdog and Asa is a Norwegian Elkhound.

Finally got myself back to the gym after far too long of a break. But my knee had been preventing it - I have no cartilage left in either, but only my right one bothers me. But I had a viscosupplementation injection on Monday and it’s fixed the problem completely.

Currently laying in an exam room at a hospital waiting for local anaesthetic to kick in… I’m getting a gel injection into my knee to hopefully be a replacement for the cartilage which has completely disintegrated thanks to many injuries over the years. Fingers crossed it works.

2 weeks of "classes" (ie. class work, because I'm all distance/online this semester) left, and then 2 finals and the semester is over. Now if I could just get the dogs to quit wanting to go back outside to see if there's more snow yet, so I could get some of the homework done.

Q for university profs: if you had a student who's registered to take a class with you in the next semester, email and ask for your syllabus early, what would be your reaction? I'm taking an Intro to Literary Analysis class and want to start the reading over the winter break.

I hate the fact that I love university, I'm doing really well at it... and not only will I never be able to do graduate studies, I'm stuck limiting myself to a 90-credit-hour degree instead of a full 4 year degree, because I have to "get back to work ASAP". Feckin BS.

You don’t need the opposing viewpoint when the opposing viewpoint is literally fascism.

Once Upon a Time season 7 is so different from the first 6 seasons that it could almost stand alone as a different series. I wasn't enjoying it, but they just knocked off my most hated character, so hopefully that'll improve things.

@intheprairie.bsky.social nosy question for you… is your surname on here because you have Icelandic heritage, or something else?

@suzycue176.bsky.social what kind of dog is that in your profile pic? Looks similar to one of mine!

I haven't used Twitter in years, so I'm not part of the exodus fleeing it for Bluesky. I did just get into Threads though, and figured I'd see how this was too.

Can you do the same thing over here as on Threads, where you ask the algorithm to find you people with specific interests?

Ooh this is brilliant. I've been using search terms to try and find people to follow but hadn't had much luck yet.
