I'm American, but I went to a private school run by Brits. No flags, pledge of allegiance or anthem, ever. The only reason I knew it was a thing was because of cable tv.

I don’t bite ;3

Disappointing

NGL, I appreciate WFH. Spending the day thirsting at the office is a bad time.

Become the chaotic good the world deserves. When someone sneezes just reply liechtenstein! and hand them a paper towel.

It's fairly common sense given that most ADHD meds are powerful stimulants. Spikes in blood pressure may lead to arterial hardening or chronic hypertension. I ended up with four stents in my heart and chronic hypertension. Still, here is an article so you don't have to take an internet stranger at their word.

EDIT: My concern is mainly for those who have taken it since childhood, led a sedentary lifestyle, eaten a poor diet, and never track or share their BP with a primary care physician. In other words, a not insignificant percentage of ADHD patients.

EDIT 2: I am not advocating against the meds, they can be a godsend. I am just saying that if you choose to take them, make sure to eat VERY well, excercise daily, take anti-inflammatory supplements or foods, monitor and log you blood pressure, and share your BP log with your primary care physician regularly. Also, if over 30, take a stress test every couple of years. All good things even if you aren't on ADHD meds.

And heart disease before forty. Good times...good times.

I live in Wyoming and I want to get a 4x4 half ton with a full bed so in the winter I can slap a hydraulic flat bed on it for two snowmobiles and a snow plow on the front. In the summer it would tow my ruggedized camper and maybe dirt bikes in the bed.

They are super useful but "luxury" and/or urban pick-ups have given them a bad reputation.

If the shit at least worked then maybe I'd give it a pass, but it doesn't. These AI offerings are garbage and we are wasting resources we simply do not have on absolute shit.

With my astigmatism? Even with the lights on, I'm stomping that pu...(nope)...cat.
