*human is explaining earth sports*
Human: yeah and we really like to play catch. It’s almost known as a father-son bonding ritual.
Alien: what’s catch?
Human: well basically you have two or three players and you have a ball and you throw it around and then the person you throw it to catches it.
Alien: *loses shit*
Human: ????
Alien: YOU HAVE GAMES DEDICATED TO THROWING STUFF? AS CHILDREN??? IT TOOK US NO LESS THAN 5 MELLENIA TO LEARN THROWING TECHNIQUES AND ONLY A FEW OF THE MOST HIGHLY TRAINED INDIVIDUALS CAN EVEN ATTEMPT TO LEARN HOW TO DO IT, AND THEY STILL ARENT GOOD AT IT! THROWING IS SO IMPRACTICAL! WHY DO YOU TORTURE YOUR YOUNG THIS WAY??
Human: *throws empty bottle into trash bin* KOBE!
Alien: *internally* what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck
Based off the fact that humans are the only earthlings that can throw with great speed and accuracy (generally) it’s reasonable to also believe that not that many alien races also would be able to do this :)

Last time I made a post about this, I made a lot of people angry, but disabled individuals deserved to be explicitly protected in the constitution, and that’s that.
Constitutionally protecting disabled people literally harms nobody but the corporations and people that actively attempt to hurt them, so if you’re still mad about that, maybe you should reevaluate your outlook on life
People who are welcome into ADHD spaces: ‘Oh hey I think I might have ADHD/ADD because I relate to a lot of stuff you do/think/feel but I haven’t gone to a therapist to get officially diagnosed because I am scared/ my parents would laugh it off/ i don’t have money/ I am embarrassed/ I don’t have time/ I am not ready to fully face it yet’
People who are NOT welcome into ADHD spaces: ‘HAHAHA we are all a little ADHD sometimes! / OMG I get bored too! / Yeah I am so lazy also! / Lol I am always late as well! / You are overreacting! / But you are so smart/ quiet/ good!
Me lurking inside my messy as hell room which I really need to clean but havent in a while because of my executive dysfunction, whenever someone comes inside:
WHAT. ARE YOU DOING. IN MY SWAAA-AAMP???!
Media: “Female teacher seduces male student.”
Feminists: “You spelled rape wrong.”
Other Men: “She’s hot. He’s so lucky. Where was she when I was in high school?”
MRAs: “Why are male rape victims not taken seriously? It’s clearly the fault of feminists and not the fault of other men.”
Can you even imagine being the poor alien sod responsible for auditing an earthling spaceship’s spending allowance? Like:
“I see, and why do you require many tubes of white plant flavoured paste?”
“Oh well, if we don’t rub that on our teeth twice daily the bacteria living in my mouth will begin to devour me teeth.”
“…Noted.”
“I have also noticed several large shipments of specific medications, and a variety of individually packaged absorbent material - however injury records do not show sufficient numbers to justify these recurrent deliveries.”
“Ah, yeah, it’s not really an injury per say. As part of our natural reproductive cycle approximately half the population will shed the lining of one of their internal organs and expel it.”
“…that is the most horrifying thing that I have ever heard.”
“Yeah.”
“Does such a process not hurt?”
“That’l be what the medication’s for. Pain killers for the cramps, birth control to stop the process.”
“…and your reasoning behind the fully functional, high-tech entertainment system?”
“Okay, that we could probably do without. But in our defence that was actually insisted on as a standard feature of all fleet-ships expected to encounter Terrans. Admiral Plo’Kaght insisted on it. Something about bored humans and a an illegal betting ring featuring a cleaning robot with a knife strapped to it going up against a human with a mop?”
“…I believe I should speak with my superiors.”
me: *explains my adhd*
some dumbass neurotipical: um no sweaty that’s not how it works :) i know more than you, someone with adhd, and trained professionals :)))
