Ellie Williams has ADHD.

My proof? I have ADHD and I see a lot of myself in her, which is why I connect with her so much💕

But here are some specific things that I’ve noticed about her between the two games that inspired this headcanon:

• Teaching herself to whistle simply because she had the sudden urge to do so. This could also be a way of verbally stimming to keep herself engaged whenever Joel was just running around looking for a damn rag lol
• Similarly, I would always hear her humming to herself when not engaged in combat. This could be another verbal stim.
• She would also frequently take her switchblade out and kind of play around with it, which could definitely be a way of stimming/fidgeting.
• She seems to have a lack of impulse control. People with ADHD have a harder time controlling their impulses because we just wanna do ALL the things right away!! ..Even if it’s not exactly the best thing to do…
• Her three main hyperfixations are drawing, outer space, and the Savage Starlight comics. ADHDers also tend to infodump about their hyperfixations, which is definitely something Ellie does. In the museum flashback, she infodumps about space to Joel by providing him with plenty of fun facts. It makes me so happy that Joel was actually interested in what she had to say, because a lot of ADHDers unfortunately don’t often get that same response from their family or friends. This is why we love and appreciate Joel Miller in this house💕
• She has a tendency to stumble over her words a lot, especially whenever she gets flustered (trying to explain the kiss to Jesse, trying to explain her feelings for Dina to Joel, trying to process what to say after Dina reveals her pregnancy, etc). She probably has a hard time getting her thoughts straight because they’re always racing a mile a minute. Her brain is moving faster than her mouth is able to speak, which causes her to stutter.
• It can also work the opposite way, though - sometimes she speaks before she thinks it through. For example: When she tells Dina that she’s a burden, we know that she doesn’t actually mean that, but she accidentally blurts it out before her brain has time to think of something better to say. Of course, Ellie feels really guilty about it the very next day because she has had more time to process the situation, so she goes to apologize to Dina for her outburst.
• “You know what I love about you? How you let me finish my sentences.” Ellie doesn’t even realize she’s talking over Dina and interrupting her, which is something that most of us ADHDers struggle with! We promise, we don’t mean to interrupt or talk over you, we just don’t even realize that we’re doing it most of the time!😅

So I have my dog trained to sit when she wants pet (she used to be very wild and jumpy when we first got her, it’s been a long road) so now when she wants attention she just sits very still and stares VERY intently at you (she’s extremely non verbal and hardly makes sound in general)

So, today I let her out and didn’t realize the fence gate was wide open, and she just shoots right out at this older man and a small girl (bc she just LOVES PEOPLE. A lot) The girl kinda shrieks and the man pulls her behind him (which I get it, my dogs small but she’s still part Pitt, and she was running full throttle at them) and all of a sudden my dog just pulls up completely, full stop, and plants her ass on the ground in front of them, staring and wagging her tail.

And they just stand there, staring at each other. She’s like, vibrating with energy, waiting for pets, and these people are like “wtf” so I run up and explain and the old guy was just so thrilled honestly. The little girl starts petting her and the old dude was gushing about how trained and well behaved she is (I mean, ignoring the fact that she shot out of the gate LMAO) but like, that just made me so happy. I’ve put so much time and effort into training her and making her feel safe and comfortable after he (horrifying) past and I’m just so so proud of her.

TLDR; my dog is a good gorl and I luv her

This is the good girl in question

A VERY GOOD GIRL.

As a bi woman I feel personally attacked by Hozier’s music, because I am torn between: 

1) wanting to worship women like he does in his songs and never sleep with a dude again; 

2) wanting a dude to worship me like Hozier does the women in his songs; or

3) wanting to go to Ireland, lie down on a fairy mound, and hope that Hozier comes and spirits me away to the land where he and all the fae women he worships live 

I’ve never related more in my life
