that looks like a first gen ipad, so photo taken circa 2011?!

I have a simple rule now: “in the case, or on my face”.
Sunnies on my face? Clear pair in the case. Clear pair on my face? Sunnies in the case.
Case is in my EDC bag… And DOES NOT EVER LEAVE THAT POCKET…
The ONLY exception is when sleeping, I have a bedside nose holder my clear specs go on.
THIS. Thankyou…
I’ve just had to explain to the 80yo grandmother that you can’t yell at my 19yo son because his anxiety ticks are annoying you.
She went full send on telling him that no woman or friends would ever want to be around him unless he stopped… She got even angrier because she yelled at him to stop, and the ticking got louder and more frequent… (duh…)
The only way I managed to get even a glimpse of consideration out of her was to leverage her pride in being a “baby whisperer” as a grandmother, and explained that yelling at an anxious ND about their ticks is like yelling at a baby to make them stop crying…
Only then did she stop for even a moment and actually have a thought about what was happening…
She still yells at him, but at least now we have a way to puller her back a little, as this description makes her feel terrible enough about it, that she leaves him alone for a bit out of feeling guilty…
there are ways to make it easier; it’s been gamified:

I’d love it if you could expand on this to help me understand better…
I’ve had meditation suggested to me many times, and I just don’t get it…
It leaves me wondering “What am I missing?”!

Similar to many others on here, I’m terrible at time estimation, so I have to literally track backwards from the time I need to be there with things I need to do along the way, so:
Need to be there at 8am Driving takes 30mins (730) Shower 15mins (715) Tidy up and get my travel drink 20mins (0655) etc.
Then I also usually add 15mins to get lost or find parking. (0640)
Then I know what time to get up etc.
(Then I usually panic that I need more buffer and add another 30mins and get up at 0610!)
Oh… And the calendar thing. If its not in the calendar, it doesn’t happen…
Sure thing… It’s not my playlist, I just found it on Spotify.
Anything with a fast beat and no lyrics.
I have a Spotify playlist I found called “drum’n’bass no lyrics” that fits the bill.
Also use any of the bonkers releases (favourite is bonkers 14) but they have lyrics… I’ve found that once I’ve listened to them a few times though I don’t notice the lyrics anymore…
I’ve made a career out of my ADHD in a presales engineering role… (And ending up in product management).
I did need to get the social aspects under control (mostly learning to slow down, and to learn when to shut up!), but this was all very manageable if you can take feedback and hyperfocus on putting it in action… 🤪
I liked that I got to work on the 20% of the customers problem that was the “rocket science” bit, and we would sell consulting services to do the bits that were more like “making license plates”…
Also, having a new audience every week meant I got to really practice and hone my presentation and soft skills which are super important.

LOL… Malicious compliance at its best…
This needs a government / IEEE / domain registrar policy of some sort. Maybe it should simply be that all expired domains are put into stasis for 10 years.
If you want to buy it and have access to it sooner, then you need to run (and pay for) a program of works to catch and proactively kill all linked accounts, and build a register of embargoed existing email addresses that must be set to bounce.
I knew this was a problem, but wow, had no idea it was this bad…
Because I have a firstname.lastname@popularcloudemail.domain type email, I get SOOO many people signing up for accounts with my email, forgetting that theirs had some number suffix. I get peoples phone bills, pizza receipts, Amazon orders, parking meter e-receipts, Xbox live accounts, Dropbox logins, you name it.
I NEVER thought of what that would look like at a domain level!

I feel almost 90% aligned to your story…
Was diagnosed formally in my 40s… Described as “super high functioning” by my psychiatrist, but really just felt like I’ve white knuckled the years from age 8…
