  • Does anyone here find they really enjoy groups of things, collections, arrays, assortments, varieties? I can’t really explain it adequately, but I’ve always somehow enjoyed collections of various things. One of the things i always think about that I’ve enjoyed since i was a kid, was the way a building in a city might have a set of signs in a vertical column with different logos for all the different stores/businesses within. Somehow i just found it satisfying to see all these different self-contained designs, all representing a variety of products or services. I also have really heavily enjoyed collectibles in my time: action figures, trading cards, video games, etc.

    I also remember having a couple posters above my bed years ago that each had a grid of like 100 different smiley faces that said “Have a day” and each smiley had a different expression/look and it said under it “Have a happy day” or “Have a broken day” or “Have a plaid day” and eventually i got a sequel poster that said “Have a night” with 100 different night-theme smileys each with their own “Have a _____ night”

    Just wonder if that’s a common trait anyone else here can relate to 😅

    I can attest to that. Though from what I’ve gathered (but i can’t say from personal experience yet), it may be something that can be improved with therapy and learning new ways to handle those times. I’m stuck in the executive dysfunction catch-22 where i know i could use the help but I’m still too stubborn or disbelieving (or whatever executive dysfunction causes) to seek it

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯





  • Estimates are saying over 30 people died, mostly women and children according to the article.

    To put it in context, here’s the final couple paragraphs from the same article:

    The Israel-Gaza war began on 7 October, when Hamas carried out an unprecedented attack on Israel, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 others back to Gaza as hostages.

    The attack triggered a massive Israeli military response, which has killed at least 39,480 Palestinians in Gaza, according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.
