Places to read stuff in Norwegian!
Klar tale -> Simply written news articles designed to help people still learning Norwegian
NRK.no -> The national broadcaster, they have a wide variety of articles both on current affairs and topic pieces
Dagbladet.no -> A Norwegian newspaper, as far as u could tell they didn't ask you to subscribe
Forsking.no -> All sorts or articles about all fields of science. These are really interesting and will help you find specialist vocabulary.
Historie.no -> Articles about history, also very interesting
jus24.no -> I came across this one but don't actually read it that much, but it's about legal happenings.
Store Norske Leksikon -> A bit like Wikipedia in a way, lots of articles about things both do with Norway and things not to do with Norway. (How the hell do explain this)
Wikipedia -> I've talked about this one before but I'll never stop recommending it. You can find anything here and it's brilliant for both practicing reading by reading something your familiar with, and for learning new vocabulary.

WHAT THE FUCCAA
things i didnt realize were signs of being neurodivergent when i was younger
not being able to stand certain textures of clothes and complaining when i was forced to wear them
being a “picky eater” (and then getting punished for it)
struggling to understand gender norms (like being told long hair is for girls, short hair is for boys, certain colors decide your genitals apparently, etc)
reading the same short story books over and over again
getting sensory overload constantly and thinking that im just too sensitive and it must be a character flaw i have to fix
bringing certain objects or belongings with me everywhere for comfort
spending way too long making up my own fantasy worlds or stories
fellow ND people please feel free to add on (neurotypicals welcome to reblog but dont clown)
Some individuals with AD/HD, especially without hyperactivity, have an activation problem as described by Thomas Brown, Ph.D. in his article AD/HD without Hyperactivity (1993). Rather than a deficit of attention, this means that individuals can’t deploy attention, direct it, or put it in the right place at the right time. He explains that adults who do not have hyperactivity often have severe difficulty activating enough to start a task and sustaining the energy to complete it. This is especially true for low-interest activities. Often it means that they can’t think of what to do so they might not be able to act at all, or, as Kate Kelly and Peggy Ramundo say in You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?!, they might experience a “paralysis of will” (pg. 65). “The clothes from my trip—a month ago—are just still lying in a heap in the suitcase.” “I spend a lot of time in bed watching TV but my mind isn’t watching TV. I’m thinking about what I should be doing, but I don’t have the energy to do it.”

there should be a podcast of the actual podcast of only murderers in the building, like I would listen to that religiously.
"should autism exist in my fantasy story?" yes. "should psychosis exist in my fantasy story?" yes. "should personality disorders exist in my fantasy story?" yes. "should ADHD exist in my fantasy story? should intellectual disabilities exist in my fantasy story? should dissociative disorders exist in my fantasy story? should trauma disorders exist in my fantasy story? should anxiety disorders exist in my fantasy story? should mood disorders exist in my fantasy story? should--"
yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
you don't have to include their real actual names and you don't have to have main characters with every single one of these things. But neurodivergent and mentally ill people should EXIST in fantasy stories and fantasy societies, because we exist in real life. We deserve to be acknowledged.
Do I think I have ADHD because I have all of the symptoms ?? Yes
Am I scared to get diagnosed because if I don’t have it I’ll just be a fucking idiot ?? Also yes
Can anyone else relate to this ??
