No offense but I’d rather be called a slur than adorable for being autistic
No offense but I’d rather be called a slur than adorable for being autistic
I make it a point to adopt some of my grandpa’s lingo. Funnily enough my 18-20 year old students can smell 30yo slang from a mile away and will point out it ages me, but they’ve never said anything about the random 50s teenage slang I incorporate.
When I’m speaking English, I think I call them USB-to-outlet-thingy. Otherwise it’s almost, but not exactly a direct translation: USB-Stecker.
I fucking love Ubuntu. Have been on it for about 5 years now. It just works AND doesn’t spy or advertise. Nobody has ever been able to convince me it gets better than that. I don’t need stuff to be difficult to prove to myself I’m smart.
Somehow my app won’t let me paste a link, sorry. But for most of your working years, you’re most likely to die by unintional injury:
And that’s just death that we’re talking about. Youre in danger of non lethal injury, too.
Great news, traffic deaths are no more because most victims die in the hospital instead of at the site of the accident. Fear hospitals, not traffic.
For better or worse, if you weren’t fat they wouldn’t diagnose you properly either. I’ve been diagnosed with:
•Too skinny (this is particularly funny bc the complaint was fainting and both the low weight and fainting are from hyperthyroidism as I now know)
•Too tall
•‘this is normal for young women’ (if it were they’d all be unable to work traditional job)
•Psychosomatic ailment (depression on my medical record is the bane ofy existence)
•Just unlucky
•‘this must be an unknown symptom of your existing illness’
•Lacking exercise (I do 2 hour long swims a week and walk 3-5k every weekday)
•Probably lying about the amount I drink (both water and alcohol)
Some of the comments are describing scenarios where every day is pretty much the exact same, with a tiny little bit of choice in how to create variation, and you’re in physical discomfort and pain. That’s just real life for some chronically ill/disabled people.
Side point, but there’s male three colour cats. Cats can be chromosomally intersex, just like humans. My family used to have a male calico. They usually have XXY chromosomes.
Usually when an unpleasant, inconvenient, non-optional ‘feature’ like this comes out, it’s at least obvious how that’d generate the culprit company more profits. But with this one, Im genuinely befuddled as to how it benefits YouTube shareholders. Anyone have a guess?
Sure, if you can shell out 360$ for a blender (that’s the one that’s linked on the site you linked).
Also, while it’s still marked up and doesn’t enjoy the same government subsidies, plant milk can be cheaper than cow’s in many places.
Fun fact, the stay itself isn’t entirely covered in my country. Being in the hospital costs like 20€/night (regardless of what procedures and tests they do, those are fully covered).
I genuinely use my third name for anything professional.
Not at all. The genocide isn’t new, it’s built into the very fabric of modern Israel. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2001/may/31/londonreviewofbooks
I don’t mind managing passwords. I simply do not WANT to create another account.
I have sensory issues and don’t handle crowds or noise well, I have fun for a little bit if it’s not all too crowded, but then I crash hard while still there. After 1st of May I slept 19:00-11:00. And that’s in a country where the very worst I’ve personally witnessed police do was surround and unjustly arrest people. But if I can spare the resources, it’s totally worth it.
Also 172/5’8 and same, several times! Even from me who were still taller than me! Also dated someone who didn’t care and was 175/5’9 and when we went out together and my shoes made me taller than him, we’d get an average of like 10 comments, all from men, about it. Lots of friends have told me their only slightly taller ex bf wouldn’t ‘let’ them wear heels.
Also, on a dating app, I’d get about 50/50 matches from masc and fem people when I didn’t list my height. When I did list it, I’d get mostly fem ones, and all the masc ones were tall. And fewer matches overall.
Of you don’t mind explaining, how? I can only code for maths purposes, but this sounds cool
Idk if it’s my neurodivergence but I almost literally can’t read stuff like this ;_;
Meh considering my life rn thats ok go ahead
