Sounds like you're doing great! I majored in German in college, it's such a fun language to learn. Others have already mentioned these points, but they're definitely the next step for you, if you're looking to expand your current practice. Language accusation has 4 major components. Reading comprehension and listening comprehension (passive) and writing and speaking (active). Having a practice buddy that can speak with you on a regular basis will move you forward in leaps and bounds. Same for actually immersing yourself in an environment where the language is spoken can also move you sooo far forward. But if you keep on as you are, you'll definitely still learn a lot :)

Sooo much this!!! I've been really getting into vimwiki lately. A syntax on plaintext. If I decide I hate this format for my notes later, they're still easily readable by whatever plaintext note organization tool I choose to use next. The markup might get a bit crunchy but it's all still readable, and editable later!

This is absolutely amazing, I listened to the video sample you posted too and it sounds great!

Pretty sure that I do! Since there's very little way to get a diagnosis for it as an adult, I haven't tried to, but it definitely matches my experience.

This is great! It looks super cute and I absolutely love that you're using preexisting materials rather than sewing with new!!

Yeah, definitely the downside of that community. I'm definitely there for the personal 'this was/is my journey' egg memes, call outs about 'egg like behavior' aren't ok.

I'm not sure if it's within scope of beehaw, 'cause I know that the meme page here already asks for people not to upload images directly to save server space (which I totally respect) but I really lurked and enjoyed r/egg_IRL and r/traa and I'm definitely keeping my eye out for where the trans meme share lands.

Hi y'all, I'm socialgaff, or Liam. I'm pretty likely AuDHD, diagnosed and medicated for the ADHD side of things (if anyone has questions about what Stratera is like, I'm not a doctor but I've been on it for about a decade now). Self-diagnosed dyslexic and dyscalculic. Glad to have another community to talk brain stuff with!!
