Chiang Mai, Thailand

A day late for commander Cody day (I was at work) but here’s a thing I whipped up for the day :3c

And now for something completely different.

This is the ADHD Teapot. I made it in a ceramics class a few years ago. I use it to explain executive dysfunction to people who haven’t come across the term before (and those who think of ADHD mostly as Hyperactive EightYear Old Boy Syndrome).

So, most people’s brains are like a regular shaped teapot with a single spout. Let’s say that your time, energy, focus etc is the liquid you have in the teapot. Your executive function is the spout, that directs the tea into the specific cup you want to fill-aka the task that you’re meant to be doing. Spills happen occasionally, but generally most of the tea goes in the right cup.

If you have executive dysfunction, you have multiple spouts going in different directions. You can try pointing one of them at your chosen cup and you will probably get some liquid in there, perhaps you will even fill it right up (finish the task). But meanwhile, tea is also pouring out of several other places and not going where you want it. If you have another container nearby, perhaps some of it will end up in there. But quite a lot of it is going to end up on the floor and accomplish nothing.

And at the end of the day you’ll have filled one or two cups ( or sometimes not even one) compared to the five or six that somebody with the same sized teapot (but only one spout) has filled, and everyone wonders why you’re so bad at getting tea poured, and why you make such a mess in the process.

One day I’d like to spend more time learning pottery and create a really technically good fucked up little adhd teapot. But that’s a long way off since i currently live in the outback and the nearest pottery workshop is some 400km away. But I figure that for now, it might be a useful or interesting metaphor to somebody even in its rough draft form.

This post is the cup I filled instead of cleaning my house btw.

You get it!

Very important addition

Lothal geoglyphs based on the Nazca geoglyphs of Peru!

I have a lot a lot of incoherent brainrot about this. Do they create some kind of map all across Lothal? Do they tell a story? A prophecy? Is their meaning lost to thousands of years? Do they seal your fate if followed.

Mace Windu is not detached in the sense of not caring. Calm is not the same thing as not caring, and some make that mistake, but it never makes it true. Jedi are full of love, their entire lives are dedicated to love for the people of the galaxy, and that's not detachment (but also not attachment, the fear of living without someone because you are afraid to be without them), they just do it in a calm way because that allows them to see as clearly as is possible.

As the song says. They’re in love, your honor.

Enjoy~ 🧡

Lay me gently in the cold, dark earth,

No grave can hold my body down,

I'll crawl home to her.”
