I don’t think my adhd ever came out as restlessness.

I always tried really hard to keep track of what was going on but the dumbest thing would cause me to zone out . When I was done zoning out I was so lost that I would just give up and continue daydreaming.

Whenever I get back from a camping trip I always grab a smash burger from the shittiest looking mom and pop joint I can find.

Tbf after camping trips anything covered in salt will be god tier. My wife and I did a weekend backpacking trip but didn’t bring any great food. On the way home the only place to stop was a Shoneys and we still joke that it was the best meal we’ve ever had.

You can buy like $50 kits or go on Craigslist and look for someone selling their impulse bought gear.

Add in a license fee and even then it’s not too bad for time killing hobby.

I think when I first got into it I was put off thinking I’d need like the finest $3k in orvis gear and I’d need to buy $10 flies at my local shops.

Like there’s a weird bougie-classist feeling I think a lot of people have which turns them off of trying to get into the sport.

Is it weird that I find people completely nude fine but people nude with shoes on kinda weirds me out

It survived and lived for a good bit longer.

I wish I knew what species it was. If anyone knows what type of live eels they sold in Asian markets in central Illinois like thirty years ago lmk lol

Nah it survived and lived for a good bit longer. I think it pushed the cheap lid/light combo off of its tank.

Some things just bring back memories you haven’t thought about in a while 🤷🏻‍♂️

Fly fishing

Got yelled at as a kid for playing with your pole too much? Then it’s the hobby for you. Can practice in your backyard and it’s fun just to whip shit around

When I was a kid I bought an eel from the local Chinese grocery store. We went away one weekend and came back to it dried up and covered in hair on the floor. I thought it was dead because it was so dried out but the thing was still kicking when I went to bag it.

I don’t really program anymore but I do manage a group that includes programmers. In college, my professor said the gig is 99% pulling out your hair but living for that 1% when you solve it.

I find myself bored and paranoid when things are going smooth so I don’t think I ever felt bored when debugging.

There are times when I’ve focused on something for too long and go without eating or drinking so I had to pull myself away.

The only advice I can give is just the general good life advice of eat well, sleep well, and stay active.

Not only that but it’s a worse user experience all around.

I fucking hate the EGS and Xbox stores for browsing new games. Most of the time you’ll get an animated video that’s not game footage and two screenshots that don’t tell you shit.

Not to mention that the formatting is so bad that the client requires you to basically be in fullscreen but you’ve still gotta scroll a mile down to get any info.
