My Leftmost Open Browser Tabs Are My Whole Personality For The Day And When I Finally Close Them I Reset

my mythology pet peeve is when someone describes a scenario in which they keep nearly getting something and then having it snatched away, and everyone's like "one must imagine sisyphus" no!!! one must imagine TANTALUS!!! sisyphus = being made to perform a pointless, aggravating task over and over without ever making any progress. tantalus = being offered a glorious reward only for it to vanish as soon as you reach for it. they are NOT the same

Here’s my weird little set of “Fluttershy working at mcdoldnals for soma reason” in one post.

I’m a lesbian and somehow I manage to walk down the street and not ogle women I find attractive, or cat call or degrade them, or touch them without permission, or interrupt their daily lives, it’s almost as if I’m treating them like human beings despite my attraction to them. What an insane concept.

Wider community benefit to not experiencing adult relationships the way other people do, and not having a line between "acquaintance" and "friend" — If I do interact with others, tend to make people feel "included"... by accident?

When someone says, "pass this gift along to a friend", I immediately think of everyone in my neighborhood I've ever had a friendly interaction with.

I don't experience an "in-group" and an "out-group". i just... interact with people. So when I think of doing something nice for people from church for Christmas, I don't think of it as "outreach" vs "visiting friends". It's all equal to me.

Sometimes it means being overly friendly to someone who wonders why I'm acting "like we're friends" when we're not. Sometimes it means thinking of someone who's desperately lonely and is glad I remembered them. I never know unless they tell me.

Prolonged exposure to me is unadvisable

Support the ones with special interests that are praised, sought for or impressive; the ones whose special interests are mundane and everyday things, or even frowned upon and support Autistics who can't explain their special interest. Support Autistics with no special interest, too.

I'm not the first to say this. I won't be the last to say this.

But if you support Autistics, you need to support all Autistics.

Support the ones with moderate needs, the ones with high needs. The ones that are loud. The ones that haven't learnt any social skills and are seen as embarrassing by allistics.

Support the ones who are hyperverbal and talk way too much about their special interest.

Support the ones who are nonverbal and communicate with AAC and struggle to be heard.

Support the ones with stereotypical behaviours and then ones who mask so hard they deny they're autistic at all.

Support the Autistic parents who are exhausted all the time and the Autistics who still live with their parents.

Support Autistics all the time. Not just when they make you feel good.

Decided to draw a little comic. Thought of the idea of a little trans deerguy getting stoked about tiny antler nubs and thought I’d share.

Idea sparked by roachpatrol’s post.

This hits so incredibly hard, thanks OP for the perspective

So, I went to go talk to a “prescriber” yesterday about adhd medication, but the lady who spoke to me was condescending, infantilizing and don’t think she knew what she was doing? (when asked her about food to avoid with adhd meds, she said “oh, I don’t know anything about that. I can check online, though.” o-0 concerning) anyway, when talking lady was pushy for me to go on a lisdexamfetamine when I just wanted the concerta, but she kept mentioning that some people find adhd medication “changes” them and they find the change hard to deal with, sometimes they take different type of adhd medication that helps get everything done in morning that need to be done but then can feel more like themself in the evening? So I needed to be careful, and to watch how the medication makes me feel as a person.

Is this a bad thing to say? Never heard about adhd medication changing a person… Is it true? I’m lost, don’t know why she kept saying it
