How far does this extend? We are residents near nagoya and I've hear I shouldn't show my shoulders or wear leggings or v-neck shirts. What is actually considered okay and not okay?

I'm really sorry that my chronic illness is such an inconvenience for you, but have you considered that maybe, just maybe, it is infinitely more inconvenient for me?

My husband suggested adding wild magic to the encounter.

In the USA, it is proper etiquette to ask if the person would prefer dying before you call an ambulance. Ambulances are expensive. wikiHow [pic of guy calling an ambulance while a guy holds a woman up while she has some sort of health emergency]

The trick is to play your music louder than your thoughts, and that’s all I know right now.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

I know Burr was the villain but the older I get the better I realize at least part of his advice was "speak less"

I'm glad. I just worry when people get into the "fixing" us language because doing things differently or having different struggles doesn't make us broken and can really harm us in the long run and since I assumed you loved your grandson I figured you wouldn't intentionally hurt him that way.

If it's frustrating him and he wants to change it I think it's fine. But often it's frustrating because other people only except communication as "communicates my way"

Thanks for explaining what you meant. As a grandmother I'm sure you know that even without verbal communication we communicate, how is it different than expecting someone to learn a new language so you don't have to learn theirs? I'm sure you love your grandson, he doesn't need a cure just acceptanc

So are you saying that the studies demonstrate that it helps kids with autism communicate in a neuro-typical manner?

Food companies are capitalizing on some of MAHA’s favored dietary principles. The trend might change American diets for the worse, @yeahyeahyasmin.bsky.social reports. https://theatln.tc/dLYAQjKA

Well, I already Met my goal on Story graph, so I guess I'll have to increase it 😀

You look like you could take on the world :)

How did you figure out how to do what works specifically for your brain. I'm pretty sure I struggle with BED and have so many sensory issues around food that it seems impossible to be healthy.

Had to do this all the time. An all-in-one machine has been life changing for me.

Thinking today that I've done cult life. Head down, mouth closed if you can't agree. I thought leaving the cult would change that but it turns out, it's a skill I've had to use frequently as an autistic woman.

Sometimes you just need to do your programming homework on the giant screen. Since this is clearly taking hours (do you see all those errors???) At least my back isn't getting thrown out sitting at my desk 😀

Honestly, that was more comforting than I would have thought. I feel like everyone thinks I'm overreacting

Sheldon Cooper in the Big Bang Theory saying "Oh, I informed you thusly, I so informed you thusly."

This is just my whole vibe lately.

Sane woth SNAP, TANF, and school lunches. You shouldn't get to say you are prolife while actively doing things that will result in people's suffering or death.

For all the flak George Lucas gets for his writing, pretty hard to deny the "so this is how liberty dies" line is an unfortunately spot on banger.

I'm tired of reading history. It's so interesting but big see too many patterns, I see flashbacks to cult teaching, and premonitions of a future that didn't learn from history and I can't do anything about any of it so it's just depressing.

I just finished listening to the book "Asperger's Children". It was both thought provoking and heart wrenching.

Praying for y'all

I hope so. I love hearing her insight
