Starting a new weekly task thingy when I can't get other weekly tasks done is not the most responsible or reasonable thing to do, but it is very, VERY ADHD. So we'll see how that goes.

Enjoy. And if you found something great this week that I missed, send it to me. I will absolutely save it to look at later and never open it again.

And I need to be honest here, at this point, I don’t actually know what week it is.
Not in a fun, carefree way. In a very specific, clinically documented way, where I genuinely sat down to write this, got distracted by a thought, came back twenty minutes later, and decided that was basically the same as starting. It counts. Everything counts if you’re brave enough.

The idea here is simple. Every week, I collect the best ADHD tweets and memes from around the internet so that people like us can look at them and feel that specific mix of “finally, someone gets it” and “this is devastating, why am I laughing.” It’s a public service. I do it out of love, and also because doomscrolling was going to happen anyway, and it’s nice to have something to show for it.
The “every week” part is, admittedly, aspirational.
There’s a version of me that has a system for this. A folder, probably. Maybe a spreadsheet. That version of me also responds to texts within the same calendar year and doesn’t spend forty minutes googling something and then forget what it was. We don’t talk about that version of me. He’s a fiction.
What actually happens is that I see something incredibly relatable, think “I need to save that,” and then close the tab. Not because I don’t care. Because my brain decided, in that exact moment, that caring about it later was a completely solid plan. The tab is gone. The feeling lingers. The urgency is still there but the file, as someone in this very compilation puts it, is not attached.
And yet here we are. I remembered. I collected. I compiled. Something in my brain flagged this as important enough to actually finish, possibly because it was due, possibly because I finally hit that magical ADHD sweet spot where anxiety and hyperfocus overlap and briefly create the illusion of a productive human being.
The memes and tweets here were selected because they are funny, because they are true, and because at least three of them made me feel genuinely understood in a way that therapy takes months to achieve.
