everyone i've ever known who took anti-psychotics was a chain smoker, it seems like there's something to that. i'm not a mental health professional and this is not professional psychiatric or medical advice, but all things considered maybe it's better to stick with smoking a bit longer if it helps you take your meds and not drink.
well, you do pretty well on the meds, and you're pretty happy on the meds, so you should take them. maybe after you take them you can smoke a cigarette to give yourself litte a addiction until death or something, as a treat, but lay off the booze. you're not happy on the booze.
but you're pretty happy on the meds, so you should take your meds.

yeah 12k is more than enough for a paintball gun, security camera, and a couple of computers to start farting around with existing vision libraries if you've got a few people with time on their hands
and then keep ramping it up so that we can continue burning fossil fuels until we're masking 2-3 c in warming and then there's an economic slowdown and we can't keep up the geoengineering and suddenly it's mask off on however many extra decades of warming got baked in meanwhile
the research is good, but geoengineering initiatives under capitalism are a death sentence
not in that district
last year i was talking to my cousin and they told a story about their great uncle who was about 7 years old in 1920 for the election and his dad took him down to the polling station to see the results. this was back in the day, you understand, and you'd have to go look at a chalkboard to see the tally. anyway my great uncle twice removed or whatever he is, he looked at the tally and then looked down at the kid and said, "they didn't count my vote."
"how do you know, dad?"
"because it says there's 0 votes for eugene debs!"
it's about danged time, that egg sac has been there a while, i was getting worried
If the leaks and rumors are true, Beijing stands ready to launch a new and radical solution to the economy’s property crisis – a government takeover. What the authorities refer to as “a new model” would replace the old emphasis on ownership with more rentals and use government funds to buy up bankrupt properties so that in time the government’s role in real estate would rise from 5% of the market at present to 30%. Such an act would surely take the nation back to its communist roots if not quite the days of Mao Zedong. If it would veil the property crisis for a time, it would in the long run do tremendous damage to China’s economic prospects.
hey there hexbear nd gang! it's that time of year for the first time ever!
here we are once again approaching the end of the year according to the roman imperial calendar that we all have to use for some reason. it's the winter holiday season in the global north, a time of great symbolic significance to many people.
and so, i want to solicit your thoughts about this community, what it means to you, how you'd like to see it evolve, changes in moderation policy, suggestions for thumbnail and banner images, or anything else related to the comm or neurodiversity in general.
or just come hang out!
i also want to invite applications for new moderators for this comm. what would you like to do as a moderator for c/neurodiversity?
personally i've largely been a placeholder, but i do love this community and i want to see it grow as a shared and safe space for our neurodivergent comrades to talk about ourselves and with each other. i also want to do better and want your input about what that means.
c/nd has a well behaved user base so we don't need extra mod help for enforcement or anything like that. what i'm mainly looking for is fresh perspectives on community engagement and growth.
there is absolutely no requirement to disclose any personal information about yourself, just to make that clear. but if you're interested in moderating this community, please contact @CARCOSA@hexbear.net, myself, and/or the other nd mods with an application.
if deadlines help motivate you, you have 3 days from the time you read this.
if deadlines harm your motivation, don't worry about it. if an application comes in a month or two from now of course we'll still consider it. this isn't a job, i'm just asking for volunteers to help moderate a small internet message board.

Element information
Element is a messaging app that lets you talk to people over the Matrix protocol.
To get started, check out this link, where you can choose to either download Element for your platform or, if on a computer, open it in a browser ("Launch Element Web").
The instructions that follow are for the desktop application and the web application, but the process is similar on all apps:

chapo.chat. This is completely optional; users who sign up with a
matrix.org username can still talk to people with chapo.chat username.
(Note: It is chapo.chat, not hexbear.net. Also, registrations aren't
always open on chapo.chat; if they're not, just create an account on
matrix.org)
