ABLEBODIED NEURODIVERGENTS ARE WELCOME AS LONG AS THEY BEHAVE
Guys Jansport adaptive backpack is on sale for 32% off on Amazon right now (blue color, pink color is on sale for 24%). The usual price is $70, right now it's $47.
I need support right now from someone in the disabled community, hopefully someone who uses mobility aids of any kind (or has advice on helping me possibly find the right one for me) and/or has fibromyalgia and/or hypermobility. Please send me a DM whenever you’re able to, I was just diagnosed and I have so many questions and need some guidance right now — I’m a young teenager and was just diagnosed and even though I’ve been dealing with nearly non stop pain for over a year now I’ve never had more questions than right now and I need help.
First you procrastinate on the task because it is not a big enough deal to get done urgently. Then you procrastinate on the task because it has become such a big deal that doing it is overwhelming. You would think that this implies a middle point where it is just big enough of a deal to get done easily, however the inherent perversity of the universe's causal geometry prevents this
people say folks with adhd struggle with "delayed rewards" aka long term goals and as such we tend to focus more on short term rewards. what they don't talk about is that at when we Do accomplish long term goals we don't actually feel anything proportionate to the amount of work we did to achieve it. In my head I suffered for a while and then money spontaneously appeared in my bank account.
Texas zoo hatches brood of rare, ghostlike crayfish species
The hatchlings also mark the second-ever breeding of a blind, white, and 'cave-adapted' crayfish.
Another Texas zoo is celebrating a historic milestone in the restoration of a critically endangered species. This week, the San Antonio Zoo announced the births of 47 Oklahoma Cave Crayfish (Cambarus tartarus). Born at the zoo's Center for Conservation and Research (CCR), the crayfish are the first-ever to be hatched under the care of humans.
Known as one of the rarest crayfish species in North America, the Oklahoma Cave Crayfish is no more than three inches in length, with a white or colorless appearance, according to the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation.
The crayfish, which have no external eyes, thin pinchers and legs, are most at risk from groundwater pollution. Direct disturbance of their caves, which are limited to a single county in northeast Oklahoma, is also a critical threat.
The state has listed the species as "state endangered." However, the species is undergoing review for possible inclusion on the endangered species list by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service...
What do you use to wash your laundry? I'm curious because my wife is very sensitive to lots of things, though not to the degree you are. We use ECOS soap and it works wonderfully for us, but my little ADHD brain keeps wondering what you use. Curiosity and such.
ECOS is fine, definitely one of the ones I react to less.
I rotate between the Ecover Zero powder (also the brand I use for the dishwasher) and the Biokleen Free and Clear Powder, depending on which one I can get on sale. I was using Aspen Clean Unscented liquid detergent for a while, but they hiked their price and I didn't like how many plastic bottles I was going through with them, so I switched back to powdered detergents.
I'm currently using up my 10lb box of Biokleen at the moment which is showing no signs of depleting almost a year after buying it 😅
🪹Nestling Phase: You start with a casual interest, peeking out of your cozy comfort zone to notice the birds around you.
🐤Fledgling Feats: You spread your wings, equipped with binoculars and guidebooks, ready to explore new habitats and spot diverse species.
🐦⬛Perching Proficiency: Your skills sharpen as you learn to identify birds by their calls, habits, and plumage, and feel a sense of accomplishment with each new sighting.
🦅Masterful Migration: Finally, you soar confidently, traversing landscapes near and far, sharing your passion with others. In the end, the true joy of birding lies in the journey itself—every chirp, flutter, and waddle along the way.
Happy National Go Birding Day!
