    Decolonization by assimilation but indigenous parties get to destroy colonizer parties through liberal democracy. Wait, the electoral college only elects the president and settlers would still control the rest of the government…

    Real. It’s crazy people have semblances of control, connection, and certainty on a given day.

    Doubt remains as I tread this path, but hypothetically enlightenment is when you find freedom and comfort in the abyss instead of latching on to temporary comforts. I have fought it in many ways and found temporary relief, but I always come back to staring into the abyss. There is no freedom or purpose or certainty or value to memory or connection, so why seek?

    mao-wave I’ve microdosed a couple times and it’s genuinely the only time I don’t have executive dysfunction. No “high.” Macrodosing would be more for spiritual purposes but I’m not too strongly anticipating it.

    Yeah, it’s pretty cool. I worry it’s slightly too cold, but I should be able to rig a heat lamp and/or dehydrator right. I made two liquid cultures but don’t know what to do with them. My spore-inoculated popcorn molded, but the LC might be better if I can get it out of the weird container sterilely.

    ::: spoiler Hi folkes, I’m back! A month ago I decided to log off and a lot has happened since then. Without social media I noticed things passing faster and was a bit less understimulated. I intensely hyperfocused on growing “magic” mushrooms, bringing me back to reddit and youtube. I spent a bunch of money and time on it and got it going, but then I got bored and idk how that’s going to go.

    My special interest finally left neurodivergence for “enlightenment.” I’ve been watching so many videos about it and becoming more aware and experiencing a bit of universal love and stuff. It’s cool, and of course directing what contradictions circle in my mind. I’m trying to believe the right things and believe nothing, and noticing what I believe and how I feel like I believe nothing. Essentially, I have taken the lesson “don’t always believe your thoughts” from my OCD learning to an extreme as I am apt to do and it’s actually not too bad. I started identifying practically with derealization and depersonalization and honestly it’s cool. Better than fighting it. I think it has to do with my hormones settling down finally (I went off t-blockers a while ago and might go back on who knows), but I really don’t care for social interaction much, but don’t avoid it (I like listening sometimes), but I have accepted that maybe my autism leaves me prone to noticing the inherent emptiness of the so called self and social connection. I have avoided the abyss by identifying with (hyperfixating on) ideas and people, but it always cedes to nihilism eventually. It’s great to not see my uncertainty as a problem. Its freeing to see my strong opinions pass and my inability to make opinions about certain things as o op natural. After not being angry at anything for months I’m angry at random things? How silly. Life is a mystery and I don’t have to keep trying to become. I can live each day noticing new things without being nagged by doubt or holding on to things. Not needing to ruminate is lovely. Of course, I still suffer plenty, but my mind slowly plagues me less. I can see how my problems may be linked to neurodivergences and have associated copes, without universalizing those experiences or caring about imposter syndrome. Yeah, I’m a bit of a solipsist, but that will pass. I don’t know anything, and I don’t know how anyone follows this path without being autistic about it (I heard the buddha might have been autistic). I guess my ADHD still won’t let me meditate deeply.. Anyway, the process of existence continues and its pretty cool.

    ::: spoiler unsolicited advice I just heard that if you say “I feel x, but y” you’re more likely to believe the former thing. Thus maybe instead of saying “I want to hurt myself but have to not,” you could say “I’m not going to do harmful things, but I do have urges.” Maybe I’m being insensitive, maybe it’s worth a shot. :::

    ::: spoiler renewed fixation Not a gamer but HealthyGamerGG is kinda fire. Reminding me why I touched grass for a whole month last December. I was balling then, making lots of personal progress. I’m a little mad, perceiving things as signs from the universe, but I’ve seen few messages so clear as “log off, nerd!”

    I don’t trust my adhd brain with this treat device, and I’ve had various self-improvement-y cycles, but I hope this time will have an impact like that major one did.

    Try to avoid getting addicted to self improvement again maybe lol. :::

    Do supplements actually help?

    I keep getting TikTok ads and whenever I see the shop logo in the corner or “sponsored” I scroll away. They claim to help AuDHD but I have no idea what to trust. I’m curious about mushrooms, lions mane or whatever, and microdosing hallucinogens.

    How to rest?

    As an AuDHD perfectionist I’ve never valued rest that much. I feel like I should be doing something interesting and being sedentary is bad for you. Recently I have realized the importance of resting as I have been exhausted by external demands and stimuli. I am at the point where even mostly lying around in my room all day, small demands and noises are too much. All I am able to really do is hyperfocus on my phone or maybe half attentively read. I know people can spend days in bed recovering from life, but I don’t have that time. I value this time not doing anything, but I’m afraid if I don’t get active or something I will have trouble falling asleep later. I know staying in your bed while awake disassociates it from getting ready to sleep so I have been lying elsewhere. Any tips? I *have* been eating. Are there comfy headphones that actually kill all the sound? Bc my ears do not want to process anything anymore.

    ADHD/Autism = same thing theory?

    I’ve seen it referenced on TikTok but I’m curious about the evidence. It seems pretty plausible. The same gene is involved apparently. There’s very high “comorbidity.” Even in non “AuDHDers” many of the symptoms of one (that an individual “doesn’t have”) are present. Autists can be very different from eachother and it seems like they may sometimes have more in common with some ADHDers than eachother. Dividing things into specific labels like this is kinda lib and undialectical anyway. People already realizing Aspergers and other things were just autism. “Pathological Defiant Disorder” (allegedly) seems to basically just be a common presentation of AuDHD. There’s also the monotropism theory that both tend to be high in. This is just my uneducated opinion on something I’ve been fixated on and pondering for a little while. I’m curious if anyone has any serious evidence or more interesting thoughts. There’s probably also connections to other neurodivergences.

    I’m being hyperbolic, but [TikTok](https://www.tiktok.com/@antiplasticlady?) just re-radicalized me and in ADHD energy mode and I know this urgency won’t last forever. I hate when things I’m around feel contaminated by toxins and I already wear a mask for the polluted air. I hate getting rid of things that might be useful, but also plastics bad so it might be useful. I do have OCD, but this isn’t about that it’s an exaggerated but rational urge. I realize this account’s lib asking you to “vote with your dollar,” but for personal health what do you think? I can afford this eventually. I’m clearly monotropism spiraling but it’s fun. Also, should we stop recycling plastic if the product will be worse?

    AuDHDers, how tf do you calm down?

    I have trouble telling what the pain in my stomach is telling me, so I pretty much only just realized how bad my body hates certain sensory and social stuff. It’s as though my insides were on fire and the only way to slightly affect it is to cry (and obvi get away from the noise). I thought it was just anxiety or under stimulation before, but no, those are separate things. I have spent hours today doing various self care type stuff (meditation, being in nature, exercising, mindfully eating, yoga nitra, massage, taking a bath, fun things on the internet, positive stimulus of other sorts, zoning out), and the feeling’s still there. I don’t even mask. How do you deal with having to be in a sensory hell for hours of the day? How do you calm down? Please don’t say drugs. Context: ADHD often makes people struggle with interoception and being able to relax.

    > It was such a good book idk how I haven't made this post yet. Just the introduction will have you hooked. > > [link to free download here > ](https://annas-archive.se/md5/e7fb9be018c3ff92c091ed68b309c7b3) or[ here](https://dokumen.pub/socialism-or-extinction-climate-automation-and-war-in-the-final-capitalist-breakdown.html) > > In summary, Ted Reese shows how Marxism Leninism is the way forward if we are to save the planet. It is largely a reaction to *Fully Automated Luxury Communism* and the general trend of people trying to reinvent socialism with utopian ideas in order to stop climate change. I actually read that right before, so it might be part of why I like this book. He explains how the [TRPF](https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Tendency_of_the_rate_of_profit_to_fall) is leading to the inevitable fall of capitalism in the near future. Anyone who denies that capitalism is reaching its final breaking point is in error. Labor theory of value continues to be vindicated. It's counter-tendencies cannot help it. Humanity looks pretty screwed with climate change, but socialism can enable innovation, stop extraction, and plan our way to a healthy world. Socialism will also employ easy technology and methods that capitalism refuses because it will undermine it's function. The path towards a new socialism is through studying the successes and failures of AES, not through trying to "discover" new forms, or repeating old forms. Principled Leninist tactics are the way. > > This book gave me a lot of hope and I've recommended it to multiple libs (🤞). I highly recommend it. > > Limitations: > > It was published almost five years ago, so it's not all up to date on the geopolitics and so on. As we all know, the past few years we've had many weeks where decades happened. Reese takes a neutral position on China's socialistness, despite presenting evidence to the positive. He doesn't talk about decolonization, which makes sense for a Br*t, but that means it's not all encompassing. There is a lot of great info in there. It might not be easiest for complete newbies, but you don't have to read too much other theory first. > > Here's some memes: > > > ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/5628721a-eee7-464d-be52-f83ac7a6bfcf.jpeg) > > > ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/3a234595-d4be-4ae9-b9a8-5e6e8d0160b0.jpeg) > > > ![](https://lemmygrad.ml/pictrs/image/a685bf26-0f97-43ce-aa84-5d16072413ad.jpeg) > > Long live ecosocialism!
