  • I just had a related experience. I’ve been out of a medication for a bunch of days, and today i finally was able to get myself to call the doctors office to ask for a refill. The receptionist in a tone told me “ok but you shouldn’t wait till you’re out of meds to ask for a refill, you should call in the refill when you’re down to 5 pills left.” Arg. As if needing to call in a refill hadn’t been nagging on my mind daily for a month.

    TBF she didn’t know i have adhd, but still. It took a lot of restraint to just tell her “ok” instead of giving her a long explanation of the struggles i deal with.

    No, its pretentious and not understandable to a huge percent of people. Exactly how the movie is according to all reviews. It doesn’t matter if the technical meaning of the phrase is applicable or not. It’s an obviously bad title for a mass market movie. For an art film showing at indie theaters it would be ok, but for a mass market film it’s a horrible title that screams “this movie is cringe!”


  • That’s bad advice anyway.

    1. Set reasonably attainable goals, then once you’ve accomplished it set a new reasonably attainable goal.

    2. Frequently reassess whether the goal you originally set is still actually the goal you most want to be pursuing. Sometimes you set a goal and at some point later realize it isn’t worth it or will never actually succeed, in which case you’re much better off abandoning that goal so you can instead pursue a goal that will actually succeed.





  • A single dna molecule is too small to see with the naked eye, but a few million dna molecules released from a few million microbes is easy to see IRL. In my bio lab days we did an experiment to isolate the dna molecules from a scoop of microbes, and at the end you wind up with a clump of dna molecules that together are about the size of an eraser head.

    And yeah as the other person said, the term “staining” is the official term used for what you’re calling “tagging”
