Does it by chance auto link in that case? Before my wifi was redpilled punted off of the internets, it loaded the page..but said "Video is Unavailable" I was poonted, when I went back to the link posted, it played fine. I was so bothered by being kicked off that I didnt notice if it went to another name or how the mirroring works. I've usually avoided the tube, because it's ALWAYS drawn me into a wormhole. And some videos are long, my ADHD allows for at most 20 min at a time. His videos, besides videos I look up from when I was a kid for nostalgia time are exactly what I needed. He explains things quite well in that short span, I'm sure many ADHD/ADD people can symp.

Note! I try to watch good long ones, like the one posted from boiling frog. Didn't feel an hour long, Sibel Edmonds? She CAPTIVATED me. Rarely can something do that, only when I find good documentaries will I sit still for that long.

i tend to think ADD/ADHD is just a newfangled word for lazy

Perhaps for some it could be, I'm the opposite. Before diagnosed as an adult, I would have 3 different things I'm doing while on the computer. Like, playing games with Ipad and Iphone, a movie or documentary playing, sometimes music. I'll read books or stuff while I'm at my chores and have a podcast on. My mind wouldn't shut the eff up which is where xanax had to come in, once treated I didn't have any anxiety anymore. Otherwise known as "Oooo shiny!" I also get forgetful, like heading downstairs to get something, get there...damn what WAS it? It's all the time though, not just here and there...

I do eventually make time to watch videos, just gotta make time for longer ones :) I wish lazy was something my brain allowed. Kinda like ya have to take mental breaks from PG, because your mind is like WOW, that's what my brain feels like all of the time. Goes back to my elementary school report cards, amazed I even graduated on time tbh. I'm the odd bird that adderall calms all of that shit down, makes me focus on ONE task instead of three that need full attention. Wish doctors had known more about that then.

I have ADD too but i dont use it as a crutch. The dumbass doctor i went to didnt diagnose based on my answer to a question "that i like learning" she said people with ADD dont like learning.
