Not defending PayPal, but I used to work there. They suck but in my experience you woulda lost the 500 of the person had called their card company too. Idk how the bank would have handled the dispute directly without PayPal but they do love holding funds as well

I've been diagnosed twice with ADHD. I have it. I've tried a bunch of different meds and some work sometimes etc etc

Ive definitely had spacey days where I will literally lose myself staring at nothing for 15 minutes. That's rare though. Most of the time removing distractions, setting a routine, and ensuring I am on task when meds kick in help a bunch. The last one especially. With meds I HAVE to actually be doing the thing I'm supposed to with little opportunity for distraction when they kick in or I will fuck around.

This meme and many others do not match my experience with ADHD. I'm sure it does for some.

Hot take? I think a lot of people with ADHD (me included) use it as an excuse to not try. It's typically not impossible to overcome but it does make it more difficult. I say this having more often than not failing to over come my adhd.

People with ADHD are often impulsive and self destructive and memes like this, to me, are an expression of that self destructive part.

Tbf to the meme though if you are deep in a spiral of self destructive procrastinating for months and that's lead to issues at work, home etc then it's easy to hit burnout and be depressed.

But at the end of the day you have to use methods like removing distractions, taking notes and making checklists or whatever works for you so you don't fall down those ADHD doomspirals. At least I don't know any other way to stop it lol

lol i mean yeah, but people want to feel like they are doing SOMETHING. Annoying tesla dealerships at worst succeeds at annoying a few dealership owners and a bunch of dealership employees, some of which also likely hate elon at this point, lets be real.

low cost, low reward, or whatever, but its about making noise and keeping it in the news. Which shit goes on long enough sometimes the mainstream media gets swayed shortly before they start saying property damage is maybe worse than murder.

Please dont. Find other ways to destroy them than fire if you want to, but fire endangers fighterfighters etc. Dont harm the working class to own the billionaires.
