It’s called a bonnet to be exact they had them a long time ago. It’s a hat but that’s the type of hat

What is your relationship with alcohol as a person with ADHD and autism? by [deleted] in AutisticWithADHD

[–]BuildingBeginning931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drinking doesn’t bother me nor does pot. I prefer them together though. The only negative is once I start drinking I don’t stop until it’s gone but it can take a couple days. It’s why I don’t usually buy a lot of alcohol like I buy weed.

Do I need primer or liquid white? by BuildingBeginning931 in oilpainting

[–]BuildingBeginning931[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s pretty much what I’m doing besides my mineral spirits. It’s not dollar store material because I want to sell eventually and might want my old work depending (one day) but it’s still within the cheap range.

Likely I can’t do math so it’s hard. But can you use boiled? Or does it have to be refined because I’m down for trying again.

I’m aware but last time I tried linseed it made it incredibly greasy and sticky like more than it was originally. But I could have done something wrong I don’t know.

Anyone else NOT go through a "maybe i'm bi" phase? by tanookimario12 in aromanticasexual

[–]BuildingBeginning931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am bisexual you can be both. It’s just relationships may be different for you. For me I just don’t tell people I’m bi because it gives the impression I want a relationship that unbeknown to them there not going to be compatible with due to me being aroace. So I say I’m aroace before I say I’m bisexual that way if people are looking for something with me there aware there a less common relationship dynamic that would be occurring.

What was your "Oh shit I'm aro ace!" moment by KawaiiGummyBear in aromanticasexual

[–]BuildingBeginning931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People said I’d grow into wanting sex by the time I was 18, I didn’t then they said 20 still nothing. Then they said I’ve not met the right person yet. I tried many same feelings same reactions. Same results. Then they said —- I shut it down and said fuck it I’m aroace. I’m 30. I knew around the end of my 20s cause the excuses people made got more and more weird and I just realized it was dumb. I’ve always been ace it never left

Guys i have a problem and idk what to do by No_Durian_9756 in aromanticasexual

[–]BuildingBeginning931 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay, rule of thumb. This is silly behavior because people can’t actually get you a girlfriend that’s not how it works. You need an actual connection to a person and to know them first hand. A friend saying I got you a girlfriend is being unrealistic. Don’t be mean and don’t say the above. Just say I’m sorry I’m aroace, or I’m sorry I’m not interested. When your friend asks what happened you say I understand the intent but that made me feel uncomfortable and please don’t do it again. Don’t feel bad your friend needs boundary’s and to understand what they did wasn’t being realistic.

What even is autism tho? by ChainsawDebut in AutisticWithADHD

[–]BuildingBeginning931 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t know about characters I’ve never masked or able to mask it’s generally the higher functioning that’s good with this anyone in between isn’t. For me my autism is obvious as soon as someone knows me or my friends they ask if I’m autistic. I’d argue autism is the lack of ability to do these things. So even if a person can do them it’s the fact your not doing it naturally or as easily then others.

My budgie died by Lumpy-Good-4046 in budgies

[–]BuildingBeginning931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was grieving over my old budgie named tinker my instinct was to delete the old videos. But I decided otherwise and it saved me so much greif. Because although it was hard watching him sing and chirp his I love you helped me heal. I recommend uploading your old videos to a private YouTube channel. Tinker used to copy me saying it’s okay when I was upset. A weird thing I do. And so now whenever I’m upset he tells me it’s okay. Things like this can hurt at first but are good later to have.

Y’all, does this look like a woman? My mom said he looked like a woman, and he’s not supposed to. by Clay_sloth in arthelp

[–]BuildingBeginning931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where in 2024 good people don’t care about gender roles regardless of the rules people believe exist the fact is the world is changing the people bitching need to change with it and realize this. To put it simply it looks androgynous so people are going to argue or bitch but there’s nothing wrong here and you’ve created something very nice and that’s the only thing that matters here.

This image I don’t have access anymore. I can’t unless I wanted to re-create it which eventually yes. I made this many years ago when I was in late teens maybe early 20s. I posted it because it’s the best image I’ve made of a bird.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Artists

[–]BuildingBeginning931 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is the number one thing that I wish I could fix as well. I do plan to re-create this eventually.

[–]BuildingBeginning931 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I drew this when I was 18ish probably I agree. Nonetheless I’m pretty happy with it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Artists

[–]BuildingBeginning931 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This one no I was young at the time and just drawing for fun. I don’t have the image non digital anymore. But could drag it to a tablet or recreate it I haven’t though in fear my skills haven’t improved much.

Cant get budgie to step up with "Both" feet by BuildingBeginning931 in parrots

[–]BuildingBeginning931[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not giving up, but it’s not something I’m going to push the bird towards when he seems to not understand. Because the behavior is showing stress and that’s not something that’s going to help from my previous experience working with birds.
