I would much rather the men wear themselves out with a physical activity before coming home, actually. Otherwise they get pretty cranky come bedtim, after playing fake racing games on their Xbox all day.

Mine does that anyway.

This sword is enchanted with fire magic!

...The handle is made of super flammable material, though, and a bunch of people got third degree burns trying to weild it. There was a massive recall.

You know what "recall" means, though? Collector's item! These are rare af.

So that one speaker took over for the entire world when we were done playing it 24/7, collectively?

That's kind of inspiring. You go little speaker! ☺️

Muscles don't keep you warm in freezing ocean water! Blubber does that.

...Man I wish I had a bulletproof excuse like that.

I see a lot of people pointing out how autism is a spectrum disorder, so it would have a bunch of different presentations already.

That's true of course, but spectrum disorders typically have a set of core symptoms, and regardless of your particular presentation you need to experience all or most of them to meet the criteria for an affirmative diagnosis.

For example, My partner and I both have ADHD; the two opposing classic "types", (inattentive and hyperactive). There are a number of symptoms that relate to his type that don't apply to me, and vice versa. We also have different ways we've grown up trying to compensate for our symptoms, so they have different effects on us.

Undeniably though, we both experience all 7 core symptoms.

If scientists are making this claim, they must be saying that their research on ASD suggests they found there to be no definite core symptoms.

It would be crazy dumb otherwise to announce their findings studying a spectrum disorder, if their findings were, "it appears to be a spectrum disorder".😂

Hm...I don't know. I think terrible names are popular enough presently that when the generation being born right now is school-aged, a McKeinsleigh will probably need to use a last initial in class to not get her confused with the other one(s).

If this were a comment on my social media to answer...well first of all I would have to clarify with them "you must mean my second broken engagement, right? The first one happened before Facebook, back in 2005, but we had MySpace then I think, but still, you mean 2024?".

"Well, see what happened in 2024 was, August 17th we were supposed to be wed. I picked the anniversary of my best friend's death for our wedding date as a way of making her a part of it, and also as a way to bring some joy to what used to be the worst day of the year. Now it'll be our wedding anniversary ever year! We can party!

Come August 13th though, my fiancés struggle with meth addiction/psychosis took the wheel again, and drove him off into outer space.

He dumped me on his way off the planet though, because apparently (and I quote), "we can't be together because there is a woman waiting in the states for me to go breed with her, so I can pass on my super powers. I would have tried with you, but you're too old."

Haha, omg. Steal my last few years of good fetility then call me too old to have a kid like I've always wanted to, like I made sure you wanted to before i even agreed to start this relationship, that we used to always daydream about, that we made plans for including picking out a name, until you changed your mind out of nowhere one day, and now you're saying this "too old" shit to me while you're in the process of leaving me at the fucking altar, essentially? Wow.

And now, you might have expected that this cruel quote of his would be the craziest part of this story. It's not. The crazier part is this: I had just taken that motherfucker back!!

Just a month ago, we got back together. In retrospect, what would follow should not have been a surprise, but... we only got to spend like 2 weeks together as a couple before his next relapse/psychotic break would disappear him from my life again. Haven't heard a peep from him in 2 weeks now. No idea where he is or if he's ok. No idea if he's even alive.

And I was the genius who said, "sure, I'll trust you one more time".

That's what happened."

So offensive, their clocks hanging out for all to see.

Someone explained in a reel that I saw once that the reason we feel like this is because we struggle with transitions.

It made a lot of sense; like as to why I take so long to leave my bed for the first time after I wake up, or why I can never motivate myself to go walk outside, but when I'm already outside walking because I was forced to be, I'll walk 20 blocks to the grocery store to avoid having to sit down and be still for 10 minutes waiting for the bus.

PS: I've only been using Lemmy for something like 10 minutes total so far, only heard of it 15 minutes ago, and this is my first ever comment here, so if I'm making any dumb mistakes with formatting, or if say my comment ends up in the wrong place or something, it's because I haven't learned the platform's ins and outs yet. Plz no judge. Reddit was really judgmental today and that's why I came here.
