if you think I’m tone policing, block me and report my comment. Don’t go around accusing people of it to further argue with them

No one claims it isn’t, but taking your mental distress out on others is also not helping

Amongst other things claiming that everyone in blahaj is American is kinda just a dick move. No one owes you a space to spew your “tough love” so to speak. Young people in and outside of America get to hear it daily already from people in their vicinity. You’re not helping.

I have to actively pretend to be someone I am not in a place outside of America, so why would I let you berate me on how I should be willing to have they/them pronouns be used on me? Funny thing is, I sincerely do not care about the pronouns used for me, but the way you go about communicating with people just makes me sick of it.

Your speech is no different than my family telling me to act a certain way to be more palpable to the “cishet population”. I and other people are not obligated to listen to the ramblings of a mentally distressed queer person who thinks we’re all just a bunch of cry babies.

I live in an apartment building on the ground floor, I always tape a sign to my decorated window to inform people where to ring for trick or treating. It works quite well for me, and groups know immediately who is willing to give out candy

Networking in DC is an extreme sport

Am I the only one with adhd who’s good at and enjoys networking? Most of it is just asking specific questions based on prior information you’ve been given by the other person.

Really important is identifying a topic the other is passionate about, maybe it’s not even work related, but a hobby or a travel experience they’ve had. Then you get them to “teach” you about it by asking them to elaborate and maybe even explain specific parts of their hobby, and voila you’ve succeeded in networking.

People are passionate about their skills and hobbies, and most love to elaborate and explain the specifics of it, especially when they usually don’t get to do it.

Remember those “Joe is forcing us to see his travel pictures” joke? This is basically that but you’re actually interested in the pictures. Listening to someone being passionate about something is a lot more fun than others lead you to believe, give it a try, it’s basically nt infodumping.

Maybe it was “The Thought Emporium”? He made two vids on it, one being a follow-up

Damn, probably

No???

Fellow Zer here, my elective IT class had grading done depending on how well you could use the computer:

‘A’ if you could do everything perfectly well, ‘B’ if you needed some help from the instructor, ‘C’ if you needed a lot of help, ‘D’ if you couldn’t even get past the login screen on the windows machine.

We had a lot of people who got a pity ‘C-’
