Inspired by this post.

 

Anybody else have this issue?

 

I was in the middle of something in another room and it occurred to me that this familiar expression could be adapted for ADHD: A watched pot never catches fire. Good reminder to exercise a little extra caution in the everyday tasks that get boring but are still dangerous if you get complacent. Driving, cooking, poking around in a running computer with screwdriver even though you know you should shut it off, that sort of thing.

Now if you'll excuse me, I should get back to cooking breakfast before the "food is done" alarms start going off throughout the building.

User @[email protected] (Soraya Pepe) is advertising a forum service as well as a booking site where you can order donuts* that they'll deliver to your hotel room. They are using bit.ly links to obscure links to their forum topics in community sidebars as well. These communities are [email protected] and [email protected].

Donuts*Probably not donuts.

 

@[email protected] has created 80+ communities here, most of which are empty save for a "Looking for moderators" post. Some have 0-3 posts which are nearly all from the creator and a couple have some regular user activity.

I recognize that this may not be against the rules as long as it's not simply for the purpose of squatting on a name but is worth observing for future developments. It does not appear that this user intends to actively moderate since they're looking to hand those communities off as soon as they're created.
