Stuck.

Waitwaitwait. Do you mean, like, the fan hum + disc clicking? Or do you mean actual electronics humming? Because I can definitely hear my PC, but I can't hear my phone or my charger like some people can.

There's no way neurotypicals can't hear discs working and fans humming and their pc in general. They cannot think it's actually silent. I refuse, it's impossible.

the fact neurotypicals can’t hear the electronics hum doesn’t sit right with me. they’re such strange creatures. what do you mean you can’t hear the computer going babdbbsjsbsbhmmmmmm? it’s very much there! in fact, at times it’s too loud and i cry over it! you have to be able to hear it!

ADHD: *puts off doing small but necessary tasks for weeks on end because they just seem too haaaaaaard*

also ADHD: *drops everything and spends 14 hours straight doing 150% of an unnecessary and highly-involved task that no one asked for without taking a single break to eat or pee*

stop everything, this is bitty doing research for his thesis

there’s more lmao, unhinged bitty energy

Neurotypical people often don’t understand how difficult it can be to just have a conversation. I’m not avoiding looking you in the eye, I just can’t. I’m not trying to interrupt you, I just struggle to pick up on when you’re done talking. I’m not not listening to you, I just can’t process this conversation right now. I didn’t ignore what you said, I just forgot, I tried to remember but I can’t. I can’t. I care about you, I want to talk to you, but I’m not good at talking.

self care is putting yourself to bed on a regular schedule because it’s the base treatment for mood disorders

there’s no twist or anything it’s just really really good for u to sleep at consistent times

I’ve been in such a funk since the concert. I’m not even sure I enjoyed myself that much. maybe I did. I don’t know

Hello, how are you? How did you learn how to pick locks and why? Thank youu

I'm as well as can be under current circumstances, thank you!

Well, short answer is, I got locked out/in one too many times and when my lil bro decided he wanted lockpicks I also got a set for myself. This one:

Depending on the size and finicky-ness of the lock some will work better than others. You learn to judge which ones are working better by the feel. And when you’re still learning I found that it helps to guess if you use the one with teeth similar to the lock key.

Bigger sets usually come with a transparent lock as well for you to learn, like this one:

And once you get the basic principles down it's only a matter of practice.

The pin tumbler lock is the easiest, the standard for almost every door and chain, and is the only one I know how to pick (though I should really learn the lever lock as well, we keep losing the keys to the old mountain house). I mostly learned by feel and, like, two gifs where someone explained the principles.

(I can also pick locks with two bobby-pins, but it’s a pain in the ass to work with those. They work in a pinch but you better arm yourself with patience first)

Anyway, there are tutorials on YouTube if you want to learn anything more sophisticated than that. Also a useful link.

Happy picking!
