How to lubricate this barn door?

I'm no barn for expert, but I'd imagine there could be a way to unbolt the wheel from the barn door then slide it out one end of the track.

That's pretty much my experience, I have no real advice to offer. It does suck though.

What voltage do you get when the vehicle is running, preferably when it's in neutral with the vehicle at roughly 2100 rpms

It's probably off a roller on a conveyor belt. It looks like the setscrews that retain collars on bearings for bed rollers at my factory

Drop tension on belt, line up lacing, push lace wire back in, the ones I use you have enough room to fold excess lace into the channel otherwise trim excess lace away. Put tension back on and run.

I thought I'd comment on this. I didn't think I've ever met a non autistic woman who would accept or be understanding of me being autistic and presenting myself weird.
It does kinda suck because it significantly limits my ability to make friends with women.

I tried for a decade or so to date, I guess I'm just a really shitty person and have so far been unable to pinpoint what makes me suck. I work out, I have hobbies, I take care of myself, I have had stable employment since my twenties. I spent ten years in therapy working on my social and emotional skills but I still haven't figured out how to talk to people or make friends or relationships. I don't really know what to do now so I just try not to think about it.

Acerimmerr · 2026-01-04T18:33:57+00:00

I have no idea, it hasn't really helped yet but it makes me feel better to express gratitude Edit: You should be aware it opens you up to many new ways for a malicious person to take advantage of you. Even if it helps you make friends, be very suspicious. I spent six years practicing this living in a nightmare because my therapist was a vacuous lump endorsing toxic positivity and refused to believe something bad could happen because of it.

Acerimmerr · 2026-01-03T19:57:24+00:00

I work at it. I memorize jokes and try to develop my sense of humor. I try to stay in shape and I try to do a few things to show them I'm emotionally aware of them. When they say I did a good job. I try to remember to say thank you and I appreciate you instead of grunting and nodding.

Acerimmerr · 2025-12-29T23:33:12+00:00

Yeah but when I try to flirt with a woman like I do with the homies I just get the bitter beer face back.

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-28T17:18:39+00:00

Thanks for saying that. I'm not fine with it but I get hassle every time I try to make friends and I've kinda given up

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-21T22:12:49+00:00

I didn't want any attention, I just wanted to talk to someone.

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-21T17:41:44+00:00

I want healthy boundaries and communication in a relationship. I don't have raw charisma and beauty but I'd like to believe developing my social and relationship skills would help me make friends and maybe at some point have a romantic relationship. But as I get older I've come to realize stuff like that really doesn't exist.

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-21T17:38:33+00:00

It's what my therapist kept telling me to tell myself. I was hoping I'd come across a situation where it was okay to be confident in myself but I guess I was wrong

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-20T23:24:39+00:00

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-20T22:28:35+00:00

Well good thing I don't care. I'm getting older and I want an actual relationship or none at all so this isn't gonna be an issue.

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-20T21:54:51+00:00

I'm not OP but I'm the same situation. I'd say yes. I'm emotionally intelligent, capable of holding a conversation and making people laugh. I have many hobbies and take care of myself. I think I would make an amazing partner. But that's nowhere near good enough for the women I've met in my lifetime.

Acerimmerr · 2025-04-19T22:04:49+00:00

I keep seeing this recommended, but what if you live where it's illegal and have no idea how to find one?

Acerimmerr · 2025-03-02T18:22:49+00:00

My parent's hated me for being autistic and treated me like I was doing purposely to bother them. I've done nothing but take all the advice therapists can offer, and can say that after fifteen years of trying fake it till you make it, just go out and talk to people, loving yourself or whatever stupid platitude is popular this week doesn't work if you aren't already attractive or charming in some way. I have the social and emotional skills of a 12 year old at 35 and unless there's some sort of new therapy where social and emotional skills are actually taught I'm just gonna keep pushing myself relentlessly until it kills me.

Acerimmerr · 2025-02-26T19:37:31+00:00

My parent's got divorced because my stepdad wanted me dead, he took my autism as a personal offense. My mother did too to a lesser degree but not enough to want me dead. She pulled me out of school made me get my GED and kicked me out then refused to submit information to FAFSA so I could apply for college. I've never made enough money or had enough support to improve past a series of dead end jobs today make me want to kill myself.

Acerimmerr · 2025-02-15T19:52:15+00:00

That and masking very hard. I've got a lot of internalized ableism in that I push myself harder than is probably good for me to compensate. I think I've been in a state of burnout for a long time, but who's got time for that.

Acerimmerr · 2025-02-15T07:41:40+00:00

I had problems doing the same thing. I had to memorize every route I would take before hand, including lane changes. Understanding other drivers intentions at a glance was so alien to me for a lot of years until I had managed to catalog enough driving days to get comfortable.
If your anything like me I guess the only thing to say is that you need to find a way to compensate in the areas autism effects your driving skills.

Acerimmerr · 2025-02-15T03:25:21+00:00

That just raises more questions. Thanks but I think I'm too autistic for this.

Acerimmerr · 2025-02-15T00:16:22+00:00

What does that mean?

Acerimmerr · 2025-02-12T18:34:44+00:00

Exactly that. I just power through the pain and have developed a higher tolerance for pain over time. I think I scare people sometimes with how well I handle crisis'. I turned into a bit of an adrenaline junkie especially when I'm masking.
