It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”
So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!
Further rules to be added/ rules to be changed based on community input
RULES NOTE: For this community more than most we understand that the clarity and understandability of these rules is very important for allowing folks to feel comfortable, to that end please don't be afraid to be outspoken about amendments and addendums to these rules, as well as any we may have missed
but ADHD is also when hacking your 3ds takes 15 minutes because you're hyperfocused and you've already done 17 hours of indecisive research in the last 5 days
and then you get banned from online services because you pirate an unreleased game and forget to turn wifi off
then you just lose your 3ds and never see it again
This has nothing to do with adhd. Normal people also get interested in stuff, do a bunch of research and complete complex technical things.
well, i have adhd and it's what I did
yeah, normal people with ADHD and normal autistic people
ADHD feels like your neurons are cats instead of dogs.
It took me less than an hour to install a Linux distro on my work computer after I got laid off, and now I can't bring myself to install a less demanding version of the distro, since the current one slowly turns my screen purple. I'll get to it at some point.
This but building computers
It's a 2 day process and I'm a nervous wreck the whole time even though I've done it multiple times
No it's not "le just like legos xD" fuck off it's hard as shit
