ADHD business and life coach. Understanding of neurodivergence. I believe in community and in science communication. Sydney 🇦🇺 Rationality, post-rationalist, EA-adjacent, TPOT-ish.https://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.social/post/3mpj2g5vhnk2vI like the idea of BlueSky, but can we agree that it's not replacing Twitter? Instead it's a choir preaching to itself. Only welcoming to the very progressive. Others are ashamed. (I happen to be very progressive myself, but maybe not pure enough. And I don't want to live in a bubble.)30 Jun 2026 12:55 +0000at://did:plc:tudxsqlzo6aiwn7lcpzzjx77/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpj2g5vhnk2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.social/post/3mpizzn4de22vWhat's the best typo you've ever seen?30 Jun 2026 12:48 +0000at://did:plc:tudxsqlzo6aiwn7lcpzzjx77/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpizzn4de22vhttps://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.social/post/3mk55us2nw222Choosing a Linux distro after years on Windows. BunsenLabs & MX Linux appeal to me. Thoughts? I loved Crunchbang Linux – a smooth, light, fast & configurable Openbox/LXDE mashup on Debian stable. BunsenLabs is its main successor. MX Linux seems kinda similar, with bigger community. #Linux23 Apr 2026 04:19 +0000at://did:plc:tudxsqlzo6aiwn7lcpzzjx77/app.bsky.feed.post/3mk55us2nw222https://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.social/post/3mhrxf5gspc2wWhat are you avoiding?

Without judgement. "I can't meditate, my mind is distractible. I can't stop thinking."16 Mar 2026 22:02 +0000at://did:plc:tudxsqlzo6aiwn7lcpzzjx77/app.bsky.feed.post/3mh7hkugv2c24https://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.social/post/3mh6ao6ah322mI love new & different flavours. In jam or other fruit flavoured things, I choose ones I haven't had for a while: Apricot. Raspberry. Blackberry. Cherry. Why would I have the popular strawberry? But then I do have strawberry again and it blows me away. 10 out of 10, top tier. 🍓16 Mar 2026 10:26 +0000at://did:plc:tudxsqlzo6aiwn7lcpzzjx77/app.bsky.feed.post/3mh6ao6ah322mhttps://bsky.app/profile/chriswaterguy.bsky.social/post/3me3tgkxdsk2hLove to see it. Getting out of the distraction vortex is a good thing. Unsubscribing from deeply unethical businesses is a good thing.

(Sleep-deprived, rushed, stressed or otherwise compromised? Your executive functions are compromised.) But standard neurotypical strategies are often awful for people with ADHD.
