If only society had been using the term for decades before it got its contemporary interpretation…

Not sure if you skipped my comment or you’re willfully ignorant

This sort of delusional and aggressive thinking just drives division.

The reality is, most people don’t make educated decisions at the polls. It’s knee jerk reaction to the economy

How do you measure the caffeine in your coffee? It is incredibly difficult to do so because of the variability in brewing, individual beans, etc

Tik tok called, it wants its drastic oversimplification of medical issues back.

If we want to keep it simple, no, people with ADHD don’t get magically relaxed or tired from stimulants.

Increases in dopamine and other neurotransmitters can reduce the mental “flood”/hyperactivity/distractedness associated with ADHD. That feeling can be emotionally draining, so when it calms down, some people might use the term “calm,” but it’s not “calming” in the conventional sense. It’s just not true that people with ADHD have some “inverse” reaction to stimulants. We still get stimulated

I hadn’t even thought that maybe you went to college? Must’ve been a stuffy place where you didn’t learn anything

If we’re talking touristy stuff, then the Art Museum and the Liberty Bell

I can’t tell if you’re serious or farming downvotes. Leaning towards downvote farming since you’re so far off from reality. Over 1/4th of college students are parents. Close to that many skip meals because they can’t afford it.

If you, somehow, are serious, you need a reality check.
