Once again, let’s be human and check in with each other.

How are you doing? How do you feel about the week behind you and the one ahead of you? Any rants or raves? Share whatever feels right!

Discussion can be about ADHD or off-topic.

As I am not a mod of this community, I do not have the capacity to pin this post. I plan on making a post on Sundays where we can check in throughout the week as needed.

Please let me know if there is a better way of doing this - any ideas are welcome :). Grateful to be a part of this community.

    New hyper focus: Trigun. I watched the “retelling” Trigun: Stampede anime and it was awesome. It’s reinvigorated my love of the IP and I’m re-reading the manga for the first time in like 20 years. My poor emotions.

    My lovely boyfriend is out returning a standing desk for me because it has a cracked desktop. He knows I would have delayed returning it because of executive dysfunction. He did everything, including chatting with customer service for me.

    Not looking forward to returning to work tomorrow after my 4 day Thanksgiving weekend though.

      Yay for the new hyperfocus, sounds like it’s quite a fun one! It can be so sentimental to go back and re-read something from so long ago! I’m always on the lookout for shows I can watch with my son who is into anime, so maybe I’ll check out Trigun.

      And isn’t it amazing when we have a partner who gets that making calls and following up is incredibly difficult, so they just help out? Three cheers for your boyfriend!

      Tomorrow is going to be dragging-ass day. I think all of us who took time off are right there with you. Here’s hoping it’s not too bad.

        I’m all for getting more people into Trigun, but just a heads up that it can get a bit dark and has some mature themes when it’s not wacky or funny. Episode 3 of Trigun: Stampede took a lot of folks unaware, especially since the first two episodes were more light-hearted.

          I’ll make sure to check it out on my own first, thanks for the heads up. Although he is 17, so he is fine with most stuff, but you never know.

            If I had a 17 year old I’d let them watch it. But, yep, only a parent can judge for their own kids and not a stranger on the internet.
