Consuming the most random novel information that exists is I think the only one for me haha

  You jest, but there are definite advantages to this. You'll accumulate a broad base of knowledge and see connections between seemingly unrelated concepts which other people don't even think to consider. Of course, it could also be a fast track to insanity from a fragmented mind. Only one way to find out! Check back in a few decades... (The caveat is that information should have some quality that makes it worth retaining - e.g. learning about a bunch of trivial technologies or math concepts, no matter how unrelated, would be more useful than reading thousands of news stories that become quickly irrelevant - but the caveat to that is that there is still some value in consuming a sufficiently broad base of news stories for you to develop pattern recognition and an intuition for how to adopt to macro trends.)

    Oh no, there definitely are- my intuition is a beast compared to most other people, though I honestly believe that a neurotypical person doing the same would likely still outperform me. I have high hopes that my ADHD is caused by Sleep Disordered Breathing and reversible, because honestly if I don't get rid of ADHD, I'm never making actual use of any of this haha.
