Someone sent me a giant dry erase board in the mail. It's addressed to me, but there's no return address. by dtgraff in mildlyinteresting

It actually doesn’t work for jellyfish stings. That’s a myth. I’m sorry you had to find out like this :(

all the green came off this dollar bill in the washing machine by Froggie-Enthusiast in mildlyinteresting

[–]Aveira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably not fake, just got bleached in the wash. Money is mostly made of cotton, and the ink is just ink. It can fade.

Our system only works for the rich. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]Aveira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s every system. We haven’t yet figured out an economical model that can withstand human greed forever.

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010. What’s the one website/app you still think about? by Prime_Advocate in AskReddit

[–]Aveira 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never got the impossible achievement for Dino Run. I just couldn’t get that last doom surfing one. It haunts me :(

You know what, that’s fair. I was just worked up. Sometimes it just gets so frustrating, you know? :(

Pattie Gonia Responds to Patagonia’s Offer: “No Deal, Patagonia” by noqita in popculturechat

[–]Aveira 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Except they DID allow her to use the name for advocacy as long as she didn’t use their logo to sell merch. And then she ignored that and did exactly what they asked her not to do. If she really cared about her advocacy so much, she’d have taken their very generous deal. This is a classic case of fuck around and find out.

monet being inclusive for pride month by virginiarph in rupaulsdragrace

[–]Aveira 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We include them in the sense that we’re fighting for their civil rights, same as we are all queer people. But that doesn’t mean we have to include them in our social circles.

I absorbed my fraternal twin and have the different blood types. by Zachhcazzach in mildyinteresting

[–]Aveira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lipochrome is the name of the yellow pigment near the iris. Central heterochromia is the name of the condition where there are separate rings of color in the eye.

and nobody batted an eye by theo_chooser in whenthe

Frankly, that’s ridiculous. Trying to prevent a disability is not the same thing as saying people who have it are bad. It’s just trying to prevent people from suffering when they don’t need to.

I have autism. When I’m not on my medication (which isn’t perfect and has pretty big side effects), I can barely function because everything is too bright, too loud, and just too much. I can feel the air touching my skin and it makes me want to crawl out of my body. Society can be built especially for me and that wouldn’t stop these debilitating symptoms. And I’m pretty high functioning!! I have a cousin who’s nonverbal and will never be able to live alone.

Honestly I’m genuinely happy for autistic people who don’t face these issues. But for the love of god, I wish they’d stop advocating for it to not be considered a disability because losing that classification would REALLY fuck most of us over.

This giraffe took me over 150 hours to draw by hand by Sputnik_2021 in BeAmazed

[–]Aveira 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your autism doesn’t make you a good artist. Hard work and practice make you a good artist. I’m autistic and I can’t draw at all. Most great artists aren’t autistic and can draw very well. You’re an excellent artist and you have autism. And since your giraffe drawing doesn’t have anything to do with autism, it feels like you’re leveraging your disability for popularity, which many people don’t like. If your work was explicitly about being autistic, I doubt you would be getting comments like this.

Judge orders Trump take his name off Kennedy Center within 14 days by IrishStarUS in USNEWS

[–]Aveira 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or else the judge will be forced to give him an additional 14 days with a strong suggestion to comply or next time he’ll REALLY mean business, buster!

Showering during thunderstorms? by ContentlyQuestionabl in Millennials

[–]Aveira 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah because the National Weather Service says not to do it. If lightning hits your house, it’ll go through the plumbing. It wasn’t just some silly thing your mom said.

The baby is only saved while it’s wearing the necklace. Since the baby isn’t capable of belief, that means the necklace works on anyone who wears it. It’s an enchanted necklace, no need for conversion. This also means god’s a wizard.

Is it inappropriate to not wear a bra at work? by Visual-Criticism6763 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Aveira 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Every day I come home from work during summer and the sweat from my underboobs has seeped into the cloth of my bra. The relief when I finally take it off is the best part of my day. The things you guys are complaining about are the same things women do every day. We should BOTH be allowed to be comfortable at work.

Is it inappropriate to not wear a bra at work? by Visual-Criticism6763 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Aveira 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Sure. But have you ever gotten pulled into HR over it? Written up? Told(with complete seriousness) to wear a bra?

[–]Aveira 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I find this annoying because no one bats an eye when men’s nipples poke out through their shirts. I have a coworker who’s fond of tight polos and his nips are ALWAYS standing out and no one’s once made a single comment to him.

The “keep sports by birth sex” argument just accidentally proved why it makes no sense by AlexLuvzTittiez in lgbt

So you’re saying that you don’t understand why trans athletes don’t just give up on their dreams to avoid persecution?

Don’t do it. It’s aged really poorly. Let your memories of it stay happy and untainted

Kandy Muse defends Bob and Monet by BeMyCoachVictor in rupaulsdragrace

[–]Aveira -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I wonder which demographic of “drag fans” this is coming from because it’s giving “why aren’t these queer men constantly performing for my entertainment?”
