There's a non stimulant treatment! I've never used it though. I've tried both Vyvanse and Adderall and Vyvanse is less hard on the body imo

President Lula of Brazil: β€œMy message to the US, Israel and Iran is simple: the world is tired of your conflicts. Diplomacy is not a sign of weakness; it is the highest expression of human intelligence. Those who die are not the ones signing the attack orders; those who die are the innocents.”

The crime is not just the killing of people who surrender. The crime is telling the enemy that if they surrender, they will be killed. Because when the enemy hears that they cannot surrender peaceably, the war changes from a strategic conflict to a blood-soaked deathmatch.

The rise of app-based sports gambling was the result of a Supreme Court opinion written by Sam Alito applying a doctrine invented by Antonin Scalia. Also sports gambling is not legal in Minnesota

Should we expect a spike in bone spur diagnosis’s from the millionaire and billionaire classes? Or perhaps since transgendered individuals can’t be in the US military there will be a rush for that diagnosis by the wealthy?

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

Today a judge ruled on what we all already know: the Trump Administration's weaponization of DOJ against Jerome Powell amounts to nothing more than a witch hunt.

The Senate should not move forward with any Fed nomination until the probes against Powell and Lisa Cook are dropped.

Three ceramic beasts, all leaning against each other. They’re about 12” long. They’re very emotive, but have no facial features other than eyes.

Rear view of the same sculpture. Three butts, with three little tails. Their feet are widely spaced, giving more visual weight to the lean of the outside beasts against the inside.

Front view of the sculptures. The three beasts snuggle together. Like if cats were friendly sausages.

I’m so excited with my work from this last wood firing!
This sculpture, β€œSquish”, is going to be part of my solo show opening on April 2nd at J. Rinehart Gallery in Seattle.

There is room for outreach to youth, trans & gnc people, men, BIPOC, AAPI & Latino communities, Jewish people, Palestinians, & people of all/no faiths. A broad, diverse coalition is what’s needed.

The goal is making the tent bigger w/o losing our values, not losing our values to keep the tent small

No joke, I think this might be one of the most important roles for tech-savvy Millennials/Gen Xers.

We caught a glimpse of an amazing world, one that was almost entirely free of corporate or political influence because the suits hadn’t caught on yet. We could talk with ANYONE in an age of landlines

I don’t know who called off the Target boycott, but my wife and I haven’t been there since last January, and we have no plans to go back.

What did I miss? Because I haven’t seen an apology or any real course correction. Target spit in our faces, so we made a conscious lifestyle change.

When Israel says their violence is done to protect all Jews and make the world safer for us, we can only look at incidents like this and see that is obviously not true. They’re making it more dangerous for us EVERYWHERE.

This is what happens when the cult starts collapsing under it's own cognitive dissonance vs reality. The attack on Iran has opened the doors to attacks on Jewish and Muslim communities around the US. This safety and security of ALL US citizens is the responsibility of the current President.
