I'm 37 and I can never get a parrot. :(

But a parrot could get me for a little while.

But like, a prism only reveals what was already inside that light beam.

I was accelerated (though nowhere like this) and for me, personally, it wasn't great. 14 was not the right age for me to decide to be a doctor and enroll. I did the whole thing and I have the diploma but I never worked in the field because I had completely burned out by then.

Of course I'm also AuDHD and maybe my mental health wouldn't be any better in different circumstances, we'll never know.

This is how I feel with my little wild garden. I just visit, show some encouragement, and remove an obstacle or two.

That's so interesting. I love caramelized popcorn, but when I think of default popcorn, it's always salty!

My boss told me himself that I probably have impostor syndrome. Ever since then, I lose sleep wondering how much he regrets saying that. By now, he surely realises that I actually am an impostor, but our labour laws are too good and he can't fire me.

I watched SG1 as a comfort show with my partner, and I am glad I did. I am glad I know the references and have experienced the 'gems'. I am often amused at some of the bad parts, but not always.

Many of the bad parts were SO bad that I'd never watch it again, and I wouldn't recommend you spend your time on this when you already discovered that the bad parts grate this much. Life is short and there's a lot of other things to experience.

All the time. My life has been pretty good when it comes to external circumstances, but I have a severe lifelong mood disorder.

So I'm constantly feeling bad and there's never any 'reason'.

I get this on my toes on cold days. It always freaks me out even though I know what's going on.
