This is just called bad grammar, spelling, and punctuation.

The ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) urge to use parentheses in every sentence as every thought comes with additional bonus content.

Ftfy.

They said, whilst using and Oxford comma in a list without sublists🤪.

That comma after spelling is even worse when talking about grammar

To piggyback on this—if it's an important bit of information, include it sans parentheses. If it isn't important, get rid of it.

...and no, not every thing that comes to mind is important or relevant.

Neither might it be important to your audience. Communication isn't usually about communicating what's important to the speaker but what's important to the listener.

And I say this as someone who constantly has to do summaries at the end of even my shorter sentences because I end up overexplaining things.

Heresy!

…and no, not every thing that comes to mind is important or relevant.

This statement let out 1000 tiny screams in my brain the moment my eyes stopped reading it.

Blasphemy of blasphemies! 😭

Cool, than stop gossiping about Linda in accounting. Because that really isn’t important or relevant either, but one of them is frowned upon and the other isn’t…..
