I know a lot of ADHD and autistic people really want to believe we're uniquely immune to propaganda and marketing, but I sometimes think we're more at risk, because we did not grow up navigating content that was designed to get us and how our brains work. And we aren't great at spotting what is.

Has anyone else noticed that the content coming out of Paris Hilton's ADHD creator summit is awfully uniform? Do you think there was a template for what she wanted people to produce, or is this a symptom of ND instagram/tiktok content groupthink?

I'm sure Despe has been dreaming of this moment forever!

OOOH I need to see this.

People keep telling me that it is, but I have never once experienced such a thing!

It might suck and I might be completely full of it. Or not!

People are always like “Sarah, have you ever tried writing a normal first draft and not killing yourself to make every sentence perfect right away?” But I just edited and rewrote a 90,000 manuscript in a week with no tears, so I think I’ll stick with my brand of bullshit.

It doesn't hurt that Ilusion and Sumi are DDT's best young talents. But Nobu was no slouch in the DAMNATION days, either. He just didn't have a ton of chances to show or do much more.

Aaron randomly turned on AAA last night and I caught my first Nobu match in ages. It left me wondering if Nobu leaving and chasing different opportunities helped make different trajectories for wrestlers like Ilusion and Sumi possible. Like it was a wakeup call that DDT could go shorter than Sasa.

I’m surprised by how many “Frank Carter’s woke now?” responses I’ve seen to this Sex Pistols pit thing. Was I listening to a different Grey Britain from the rest of these people 17 years ago?

It's like an itch I need to scratch on a semi-regular basis.

I'm glad you're breaking in a new one, but aw man! I'm sorry about the one that got away.

Another great thing about her was that she knew me well enough to know what styles and colours wouldn't age well in my hands. Sometimes I'd suggest something, she'd consider it, and then tell me I wouldn't put enough effort into maintenance. And she was always right about that.

Other inspiration photos I've taken to her over the years: -Françoise Hardy -Juliet Berto in Céline and Julie Go Boating -Hiroshi Tanahashi

I will miss her as a person and a skilled stylist. And I will miss the ability to take, like, six screenshots of Don Johnson in 1970's Zachariah to the salon without having to explain or defend myself.

Minor autistic tragedy: I had my last regular appointment with the hairdresser I've been going to for the past 26 years. (I can still make the trek to her new place, but not on a regular basis as it's a few hours' drive away. It's not the END end, but it's definitely the end of an era.)
