If I had known when I was rather younger, I probably could have done much better in school, and would likely have been a bit more successful--in many ways--than I have been.

But what if I don't want credit in the Play store? What if I want to use the Graphene OS, and side load everything?
I have considered getting a burner phone that I pay for in cash only, having it utterly unconnected from my real life, and turned off and stored in a Faraday wallet when not in use just so I can use the 'digital coupons' that food retailers keep pushing. I use a loyalty card because all they get from that is my buying habits--groceries--plus an address. But access to my phone? Absolutely not.
I would suggest reading some Ian Banks.
Really? They read pretty straightforward to me. THe only real issue I have is that I can't hear a distinction between a thorn and an eth, so the usage seems arbitrary to me. I know that Icelandic people say there's a difference, and at least one has tried to explain it, but I can't hear it.
Verhoeven's Starship Troopers specifically, not Heinlein's.
That I have moderately severe to severely severe ADHD and I'm on the autism spectrum.
Makes functioning as an adult quite difficult.
Depends. When I was in art school, I regularly worked for 36 hours straight, and at least once for 72 hours straight. But it's studio work, where you're actually making a <>; it never would have worked to have been trying to read Marx/Engels or Hegel and expect to have any kind of comprehension.
On Sunday at MSG, Donald Trump engineered what will be seen by political analysts and later by historians as the coup de grâce that killed forever his prospects of being president and may well have set him on a post-election course on which he finally may be held accountable for his actions.
That is wishful thinking.
Yeah, I want this to be the end of Trump and his cult. But I don't think that it will be.
Like Emperor Palpatine, I don't think he'll actually die or stay dead..
Well, uh, the bible isn't really that opposed to rape. You just have to pay the family of the woman the bride price. As long as you've got the money, it's all good.
And no, that's not a joke. An unmarried man that rapes an unmarried woman has essentially committed a civil infraction under the book of the law. OTOH, a woman that commits adultery should be stoned to death, and a man that rapes a married woman is also put to death. Because according to the bible, women are property.
Yeah, but every time I have to buy something new, they automatically sign me up again. They never give me an opt-out.
I did great in art school, because everything was working with my hands, and still required a high degree of thought/creativity. I did terribly when I was in school for engineering (prior to art school) because I just couldn't focus on calculus and physics, even though it shouldn't have been that difficult.
