I have a terrible feeling there will be several more of these tangents.		my terrible ability to focus has upsides and downsides. the downside, if I want to focus on things that are dumb but long it does this. the upside, if the random things I think of are somehow related to the things I can't focus on, I end up with a stronger understanding of all the texts because I've isolated and tied together the core concepts that went into all of them. {{int:sitename}}<!-- LithoGraphica --> is one huge wad of ADHD in one of the only ways it's possible for that to be good.
