@femaleuncle @ItsCaspius That is an amphetamine.

@ItsCaspius I’m on Ritalin

I keep talking about it but getting on adhd medication as an adult has been an insane experience because I legitimately did not know that other people just like. Lived like this. Like not having loud mental chatter and friction with everything ever??? Blows my mind.

@KeruboSk This is a Barnem statement ...

People with ADHD experience something called demand avoidance. The more someone asks you to do something, the harder it becomes to do it. Even if you WANT to do it. It’s not defiance. It’s not laziness. Your brain perceives the demand as pressure, and pressure triggers a freeze response. Someone nagging you to do the dishes? Now you physically can’t, even though you were about to do them. It’s not you being difficult. It’s your nervous system protecting you from what it sees as a threat.

@RockChartrand 20 years in the NHS taught me this is 100% true ... Zero accountability for failure amongst the middle management class. Plus they all close rank and cover for each other lest the finger of blame gets pointed at them next.

One of the most persistent myths is that public services fail because they’re “underfunded.” In reality, many are saturated with funding but starved of accountability. When spending rises and outcomes stagnate or worsen, the problem isn’t a shortage of money. It’s how that money is insulated from consequences. Bureaucracies don’t operate on profit and loss. They operate on budgets and incentives. Failure doesn’t shrink them. It often justifies expansion. So the cycle repeats: poor results → demand more funding → more waste → worse results. Then the explanation is recycled: “we just need more.” If a system can continuously grow despite declining performance, the constraint isn’t funding. It’s the absence of discipline and basic competence.

So satisfying 😁
