I know several transgender people and none of them are as obsessed with gender as certain politicians who have no reason to even care what other people do with their bodies/social lives.
I am still so confused about this one. Is this like a thing? Honestly I wouldn't be surprised anymore. All the rest is pretty real, we basically "sacrifice" children by giving religions so much power, war, unregulated fast food, etc.
I have nothing against moderate emoji use that accompanies coherent text, but I disagree that texting is a poor medium for communication. We've been effectively writing for thousands of years. It's a skill that can be difficult for some people, and can take practice to become good at, but that doesn't make it a bad medium.
Both can be true. People see his humanity, he's not willing to put this baby in a bad position. He may very well be a victim of circumstance. But for all anyone knows, the people he stole the car from could have replied on it just as much. I know I'd never financially recover from that and I wouldn't have a lot of empathy for the thief, but that doesn't mean the situation isn't nuanced.
Former gifted kid? ADHD? Twice exceptional?
I understand this is a joke but I also want to point out that food allergies are different from food intolerances. My kid has food allergies and can't eat certain foods or he could die, my spouse has lactose intolerance and sometimes eats a bunch of ice cream and has diarrhea. Lactose intolerance isn't life threatening as long as you're not expected to survive on milk alone. She's also fructose intolerant and was just eating plain marshmallows. Then complains about her stomach. Humans are funny.
Newpipe is still working great, I haven't used an official interface in like 3 years.
The first one I would think they were just kind of atypical at writing, like: "congrats," I said. As if they were writing a story.
The "your" is the most harsh, haha.
I would literally kill myself if I ever had to live in apartments again. I have severe social anxiety and agoraphobia and general anxiety. I started hallucinating when I lived in apartments (but never before or since). I became paranoid of people. There was never any solitude. Plus right now there's no way to get around apartments without landlords (though I understand ideally there might be ways around this, it's not likely to happen any time soon). When I lived in an apartment I considered just being homeless and hiding in the woods (and stupidly, isn't legal).
We sure could stand to make more stores and businesses into high rises though. I live near Detroit (but not IN Detroit) and going down our streets it's just a ridiculous waste of space. How many tire shops do we even need? Why does every business need its own lot with so much space around it? Everything being more "mall" style would waste less space.
I know, I was so excited when I read the first part until I realized it was just another autism-supremacy post. It's like all these internet "autistic" people are just narcissists who want to repeatedly gaslight NTs into thinking they're the whole problem. The truth is, this rhetoric is standing in the way of actually accommodating autistic people so their voices can be heard.
I say all the time "I feel like I have a native language unique to me" or "I feel like I have no native language," or "I feel like ALL languages are a foreign language." I've been saying it so much for years now that I actually wonder if someone heard/saw me say that and adapted it into this nonsense. I'm not saying "I'm better than NTs," I'm simply trying to explain that there is, in a sense, a "language barrier." To be clear, I am fully verbal. But no one understands any points I'm trying to make. This isn't the fault of typical people, nor is it the fault of me. Just like there's no superior language in actual languages, no one is superior here. Am I special? Well sure, but pretty much everyone is special in some way. I struggle with this "language barrier" and it is frustrating that no one understands me, but that isn't their "fault."
I feel like conflicted is the "correct" way to feel. On one hand, the government is literally enforcing clothing laws. On the other hand, this may prevent children from being forced into something they did not choose. I feel like a religion wrapping up your child in cloth so they lose their individually as a human being is cult-like behavior.
It would be better if the religion just wasn't allowed to make them do this, but then they would just "suggest" women do this. This "suggestion" of course is actually coercion at best.
I worship the lovely soup.
