If I stop taking my ADHD meds, will my ADHD go back to eclipsing my autistic traits? Because I am not thriving when they are both battling each other. I’d much preferred it when my ADHD was running the show because at least I got something done occasionally.

Okay, I’ve gotta ask: is every traffic light purposely timed to not coincide with the ones around it? Did some idiot think this was a brilliant way to control speed or something? I’ve lived here for a while (almost a decade) now and I don’t think I have ever hit all the green lights on the way to anywhere, driving safely at the set speed limit.

Are these intersections seriously built as if there are no other intersections around them? For example, what is going on with the intersection at Camellia and Cambridge?? If you are turning left to go south on Camellia, you will literally sit there for multiple minutes with ZERO cars going in either direction. As soon as traffic starts coming from both sides, the light turns green making ALL incoming traffic come to a stop. Where is the efficiency in making left hand turners wait for ages and then also making incoming perpendicular traffic coming from the Johnston and Academy lights stop? There is clearly a consistent gap that will not impede traffic flow instead of causing traffic to pile up at the stop? Not to mention what all the stopping and going is doing to our brakes and gas mileage. It’s like paying for the inconvenience.

Don’t even get me started on how it’s 2026 and we still get the privilege to stop at red lights so the completely empty lanes can get their chance to not go anywhere, instead of having cohesive sensors.

LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

• Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: $400 but flexible
• Are you open to refurbs/used? yes. I would like to get the most I can for my budget
• How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? performance top priority, quality build next
• How important is weight and thinness to you? 7 out of 10
• Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. n/a
• Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Steam games
• If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? He doesn't play anything super graphics heavy *yet*. Just things like deltarune, spore, etc. I can imagine he will want to run bluestacks for app games eventually as well.
• Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? reliability is important
• Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. He mainly wants it so he can work on coding games. At this time, he is mostly making very simple clicker games and such, so it doesn't need to be able to crunch a bunch of processing. We have a main PC that can play his steam games, but I'm sure he would love to be able to take them with him too.
