  • When i was younger it was. ADHD was diagnosed pretty much instantly, 2 sessions, but my mother didn't believe or like it and nothing came from it and ASD stayed hidden for decades. ASD was diagnosed in my late 20s and this time that was diagnosed within a handful of sessions, i brought old ADHD diagnosis and old documents up myself later.

    The combo of both kinda protected me from the worst social consequences and made me completely oblivious to those. The facial expressions and eye contact and many other human to human interaction related things came much later, basically in my adulthood. ASD hit my social and emotional aspects with a sledgehammer.

  • I've been telling that for years and they call me insane or desperate or depressed or hopeless, etc.

    There's no point to aim for the one off rare outcome, it's a statistical anomaly that it will happen. Aim for the average outcome, it's much more likely to happen.

  • That the future actually exists. That it is actually not some made up nonsense adults say for some unknown reason.

  • Yes. More ADHD when i was younger, more ASD as i get older.

    Not that ADHD is disappearing. Some of ASD traits are just making ADHD traits less apparent and less damaging. So basically getting a better hang of my ADHD side as i get older, making ASD straits more noticable.

  • Fair point.

  • I've thought about it. Wouldn't push for online identity verification reduce the usage of social media which in turn could reduce this type of harmful behavior?

    Like the identity verification could be the death bell of social media and I can't really see that as a bad result. But i am probably missing something to take into account.

  • Handy tip

  • Sadly I can't help you out with that one. I haven't done any deeper research into it than a basic reading of a newbie guide.

  • Handy tip

  • I have an idea or a concept of a cow. Turns out that's not standard either and falls under aphantasia.

  • I can't believe i forgot that one. Thank you. Yeah that's most definitely anticipated as well.

  • Thats useful to know and I'll give it a try next time. Thank you.

    And thank for sharing, I'll most definitely appreciate nudes much more from now on.

  • Two games actually. Biggest Warhammer 40k titels this year, at least one is.

    Dawn of war 4, planned release date 17.sept 2026. Hopefully a good successor to DOW 1 and 2. Though odd that they skipped 3.

    Second one is Total War: WARHAMMER 40,000 unknown release date as of yet. It's total war game with 40k skin, not much more needed for a good game.

  • I can second the working out. Consistent steady training routine has been rather great for energy levels and mental well-being, even despite training sessions being exhausting.

  • But if I'm not getting something done that needs to be done, despite my best efforts. Then by definition I'm not enough. I must improve/get better, so that my best would be enough to get, whatever task it was that i failed, done to a satisfactory degree.

  • Now that i think about. I have been a bystander few times when some women have taken pictures, it does seem to take a lot of takes and time. Last one was a random birthday picture and even that took around 20-30 minutes and uncountable number of takes, i got bored, stopped counting and went to the kitchen to grab something to eat.

    At the same time i haven't seen many men do the same they seem to just take a random first picture, even if that and that's good enough. The exclusion seems to be guys who are photographers or are into it as a hobby.

    (do guys not know how to hold a phone to take a selfie without a mirror?).

    No, i do not. I wasn't even aware thats possible. After 4+ years of training and trying to take peogress pics at the end of each phase, i still haven't figured out how to take pictures of my back or frontal pictures without a mirror.

  • I'm tempted to start spamming new user and criticizing ICE just to mess with them. Not like I'm going to get more than one comment out anyway before getting shadowbanned.

    Obligatory, Fuck ICE. And a meme

  • That's a good point. Male nudes usually do seem to be more of a just dick picks than taking the overall composition into consideration.

  • What? I'm missing something?

  • I'd argue that significantly more is needed than just 2h per week in the gym and roughly 18-25%. 15%+ and abs are barely visible and I've been called fat peak bulk just because stomach was filled with food and I wasn't flexing abs, faint outline was still visible.

    but my view does seem to be rather distorted, so i wouldn't be able to argue against it in good nature.

  • That's good to know.
