I'm interested to see if this is a thing.
I'm AuDHD and experience such intense empathy that if I see someone else injure themselves, I feel it to.

Does this happen to any of you?

My obsession with The Dude, is a complicated, a lotta ins, a lotta outs and a lotta what-have-yous!

Is Along Came Polly "reeking, radioactive rubbish" or the most underrated rom-com of all time? I certainly think so & I am prepared to die on this hill!
I also argue that it's an unintentional meta commentary on the struggles of living as an undiagosed AuDHDer in a neurotypical world! Read more here ⬇

I've been studying really hard for this one, I (re)watched the movie, listened to all the podcasts, went through every meme and now I'm ready to launch this week's instalment on Mean Girls, look at social missteps and queen bee sabotage in the cruel world of high school teens!
