I have an Rx for a pill that is like legal speed basically? So in reality I should say like "oh no don't take Adderall if you don't need it" but this pill is like mario getting the super star. Is it healthy? not really, but come on, it's a pandemic, we got nothing else going on. Do some pills, who cares, get shit done, bike like a maniac.

Did you know Chemda that the show was created by the actor who plays David? Daniel Levy?

I wouldn’t recommend taking Adderall without a prescription.
Do you know how it would interact with your autoimmune disease?
I don’t. Do you take medication for it?

I wouldn't suggest Chemda take Adderall, not because of health concerns, it just doesn't sound like Chemda's kind of high. Tweaker Chemda does sound awesome though.

Also The Turner Diaries is famously poorly written. Character dialouge, plot... its almost as if the book was a test to see if your level of hate can over power your level of boredom then you are in.

I Worked very hard as a temp and got hired for a big insurance company in dt Portland doing data/accounting type work.

I had a rough patch where I couldn't get my adhd meds for a while and this lady would always passive aggressively hint that I don't belong there. (The kind of woman who calls individual black people well spoken and acts surprised about it) .

After my insurance kicked in three months later I got back on my meds. We also were going through a complete change in how we operated. I was the only one on the team who grasped it right away, I got paired with the same woman for an ongoing task and she was so surprised and complimentary at how competent I was at thr job, better than her. Every day my name was on the board for my accomplishments.

Then one day I went to a different floor to have a break and my little swipe card with money for food was empty so I took food with the intent to pay it back later. I swore that I did but I must not have because I got called in by my boss and hr. I didn't keep a receipt but I provided debit card records from two different cards proving that I pay for a thing almost every day.

I got fired on a zero tolerance policy for gummy bears. People asked if they were looking for a reason. If it had been a few months ago I would have wondered, but it was an hr decision and not my boss, though I'm still pissed at his behavior toward me and not sticking up for me.

All that to say that Newsy and I have something in common.

Also to say to Chemda that I've been on adderall xr and it was helpful but that xr only lasts so long and then I got angry and upset at how different I felt. I was eventually put on a different stimulant that has a lot in common with adderall scientifically but feels a lit more even and I don't constantly have to up my dosage. Every person is different and if you want to take adderall recreationally, go for it. If you want something long term there's a lot of trial and error until you find your thing, so I don't recommend just taking it daily.

Having known people that have "dabbled" in pills > the kind that go up and the kind that go down >> Chemda stay away from Adderall, you don't actually need it.

What you essentially want from it you can get from some espresso shots right at home without the addiction or having to get off it at some point. Bustelo is amazing and I have a little stovetop espresso maker which I got off amazon.

"However for someone who has not been diagnosed with ADHD or if the medication is taken in a higher dosage than prescribed, Adderall can be habit forming, much like cocaine. When the effects of the dopamine wear off, those who abuse the medication may experience a “burn-out” feeling that can include depression, irritability, and dysphoria, among other side effects. Improper use of Adderall can also cause cardiovascular conditions, such as increased blood pressure or cardiac arrhythmias, and may also lead to stomach irritation and nausea."

I love adderall. I take one about 4 times a year to clean the shit out of my house and reorganize everything.

I loved Newsy's point about these right wing militants wearing an ammo vest so they can feel hugged.

And so many things, like Chemda asking why Trump doesn't just wear his regular mask/hood.

Newsy is always a blast. And when he goes back in CHU & A to bring up what happened over all the years ... my goodness ... an evil fun powerhouse!

I love ya, Newsy!
