This Wouldn’t Be the First Time an Incumbent Stepped Aside. Here’s What Happened Last Time.
  • Trump is likely going to win, the sooner you accept that the sooner you stop whining that people are engaging in civil discussion over a massive fucking mistake waiting to happen: running a feeble old guy who is likely to pop his clogs soon, who voters will avoid because of his poor performance in front of millions of people.

  • Biden blames jet lag & Texas Democrat calls for him to step down
  • The absolute denial from people who think no one could possibly stand up with many months to go. We just had our election cycle in six weeks (UK), the Democrats should wake up, their weird fans also.

  • What are your favorite bands from more obscure, lesser known countries?
  • Sweet! Also check Doch Chkae (like a dog), also Khmer metal (and all Cambodians).

    Baceprot, listened to them a few months back and, while nice they're getting coverage, it didn't grab me. Hoping they mature well in the coming year!

    Oh, and check After God also (Khmer). Drummer turned singer, just released an EP (YouTube I think).

  • What are your favorite bands from more obscure, lesser known countries?
  • Kenya: Just a Band. Funky, rocky at times, just great music.

    Iran: not a band, but a movie representation of the scene. No One Knows About Persian Cats. I have a personal connection to this movie; if you watch it, let me know and I'll fill you in (not publicly though, you'll understand why).

    Cambodia: Reign in Slumber. Metal. Changed singers (new one is from the Philippines), still great.

    Vietnam: Cut Lon. Metal. Used to dress in hilarious Pikachu balaclavas. Fun, loud, entertaining.

    Belarus: Molchat Doma. Gloomy. Oppressive. Wonderful. Makes me think of the Soviet Union in the 70s (not that I was there or alive then).

    The president said his shaky debate performance came after he flew "around the world a couple of times".

    Any recommendations of an online ASD/ADHD psychiatrist/counsellor?

    The place I want to do an online session with is not so responsive online and mainly (or solely?) does in-person visits, in a different country.

    Looking for a recommendation for ASD/ADHD support, someone who is knowledgeable about meds (I already have mine), side effects, long-term usage, etc.

    Thanks.

    Which software is best for making a video with presentation?

    I am trying to do short presentations (3-5 slides) and would like my video (MacBook Air M2, if that's of help) in the corner, explaining what's on screen at the same time. The only audio would be from my headset or computer microphone.

    Google Slides used to have the feature but I can't find it anymore. The easier the better (so recording once rather than recording the video, then overlaying it on the slideshow would be better).

    Thanks!

    Changed meds, now getting irrationally angry on downtime

    I was initially given Ritalin (10mg pills) to try out; I cut them into four pieces each and spread it over the next month and a half. It worked well, allowed me to work, and felt 'smooth'.

    I ran out, found that they are expensive here (I was diagnosed and prescribed a week of pills - 14 - initially in Taiwan), and went to Thailand (neighbouring country) to get more. Turns out the place I went to only had Rubifen, a generic variant. It was about the same as I paid for Ritalin so I thought why not, and got enough to get me through the next year.

    Fast forward a month and a half... when I am on my 'off' days (Sat & Sun, when I don't need to work or study), I am now reacting to things pretty badly. I snapped at my partner very easily, I almost put a window through because I knocked a bottle over, and generally had a miserable weekend. With Rubifen, I feel fine, able to complete tasks, work and whatnot. Without it I'm not sure I should be around other people. Is this normal? Will it level off or should I go and get something else instead?
