I feel like all #neurodivergent people came out of the pandemic with no ability to mask anymore, no desire to, and if someone asks us to mask we just look at them like, "I'm sorry, am I living in an 1880s opera house terrorizing folks? No? Well then we shan't be masking"
Hey, so I could have chosen better language for this post. I mean neurotypical masking. Masking behaviors that would out us as ADHD or Autistic.

I still support the wearing of physical masks to protect others. If you are an antimasker, go fuck yourself.
Also, vaccinate you, vaccinate your kids and if they come out with vaccinations for your pets vaccinate them too.

It's 2022. JFC

I've got some new followers. Some that may have misconstrued what I was talking about with ND masquing the other day.

So here is a break down of whom you are following. If you don't like it, you know where the block button is.
Black, Brown, and Trans Lives fucking matter and we stand against bigotry.

The pandemic is not over, especially for the immunocompromised, so wear your fucking mask and vaccinate.

Science is real.

Folks deserve to be able to worship freely, or not, however they choose.
Facism, nationalism, and white supremacy need to be destroyed.

I support universal healthcare, housing, education, and basic income.

I do not support billionaires and want to tax them out of existence.

Halloween Story 2022: Do We Have A Deal?

TW: Cancer, Religious Images, Blood, Death, Implied childhood terminal illness.
Frank sat staring down at his Tomato Soup and grilled cheese. Technically he wasn't supposed to have anything red prior to the test, and he probably wasn't going to now. It was his comfort food as a kid and sounded amazing on paper, but when the smell hit him....
Hell, even if the smell didn't bother him, he wouldn't have been able to eat more than a few bites anyway. A combination of nerves... And possible stomach cancer. He had all the signs, and there were some masses found with the scans they did.

#dnd5e another homebrew idea- orcs are vikings.

Yeah, you heard me.

Most of your forgotten realms folks are terrified of orcs because they've only met orc raiding parties. They don't get that orcs are fucking fantastic navigators and sailors.
They don't see how Uber clean and fashion forward orcs are. They don't see how the women of the orc clans have the most power in relationships. They don't see how whole villages help raise children. They don't see the beautiful, intricate carvings and art of the halls and temples
What they have seen of the orcs, and this is how the orcs like it, are the orcs they have fought - their terrifying berserkers. Everything from their tusks, to their green painted skin, to how they dress for combat are all designed to provoke fear in highly trained knights.

It is my firm #TTRPG head cannon and homebrew staple that goblins are an entire group of people who are predisposed to #ADHD , and have it to an extreme degree. It is untreated because no one has stopped to study it.

They do not lack intelligence, they lack impulse control.
A goblin is hyperactive and always in search of the next bit of dopamine to keep them going. It's why they can come up with creative solutions, but it always seems super dangerous.

Going specifically into #DnD5e you can see a decent example of a few #ADHD types.
Goblins are hyperactive. They can't stay still unless they have to. They lack impulse control. They are startled by loud noises and smells. They have hyperfixations that they obsess over. Their executive dysfunction manifest is opposition to authority. They have anxiety

Once upon a time there were two creatures, an ant, whose family had always worked in the Hopper & Son's mine, and a Grasshopper whose family had always owned said mine. The grasshoppers never wanted for everything. They could afford the best tutors & schools.
They never knew what it was like to be hungry, and they never ran out of money. None of them ever worked.

The ants, on the other hand, knew nothing but toil. All of them had been born into poverty. They lived in the Hopper & Son's company town.
They went to school at the company school. When they were sick, they went to the company doctor. They prayed at the company church. They were paid in company dollars. Everything was always more than they could afford, so they had to take out credit from the company bank.

How to do the mentally unstable, unreliable narrator trope without being ableist.

1. The protagonist is not evil

2. The people around them are trying to help them

3. Their doctors are not on some big pharma kick and actually care about their patients.
4. The character cannot tell what is real or hallucination. They are aware, and that is why they are seeking help.

5. The protagonist is not a danger to others, may be a danger to themselves, but are a capable adult just dealing with a sickness no different than cancer
6. The protagonist DOES have the mental illness they are diagnosed with.

7. The reveal is that the HORROR IS UNDENIABLY REAL AND NOT BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE MENTAL ILLNESS.
