Watching videos at 1.25x or 1.5x speed helps me stay focused and interested, which is pretty awesome!

Success/Celebration

I get bored of videos so easily, and I tend to stop and skip videos until I find something that actually holds my interest. I realized that I was getting frustrated by the YouTubers not getting to the point fast enough, which is why I searched and found the post below.

I ran across this post by u/Takemetotheriverstyx: https://www.reddit.com/r/ADHD/comments/1bbp7gn/watching_videos_at_15_2x_is_life_changing/ from 6 months ago, and tried it out. I watched this video at 1.25x: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgsXY7FR72A (Yay, ants.)

Now watching videos faster helps me stay interested. I know it's a small thing, and I don't really watch that many videos, but seriously, watching a 15-minute video at 1.5x speed also saves me 5 minutes!

Now I'm even watching music videos at 1.25x or 1.5x speed and now I can't listen to music at 'normal' speed anymore, lol :-D

I hope spreading this tip helps someone else, too.


Aww, cripes. I didn't know I'd have to write a description. How many words is that so far, like a hundred? Soooo, yeah. Mildly interesting stuff. Stuff that interests you. Mildly. It's in the name, ffs.

A Japanese Company Created Real Quality “1 inch” Mini Tools

So cute! I wish these were usable tools and not just promo items. (I do tiny crafts and finding good small tools is a challenge).

My cat was hit by a car in front of me. She passed in my arms. Please say something, share anything.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how it feels to suddenly lose a kitty. I'm crying for you and your kitty. My sympathies to you and yours.

What's stopping someone on their death bed from maxing out all their credit cards and taking loans, then giving it all to their next of kin/whoever?

Good plan.

Don't sign anything you don't read first, and don't let them hurry you in any way. When someone tries to hurry me, I slow down and be even more careful.
