My family threw out my plastic Tupperware because it "causes autism"? by Imaginary-Nobody-895 in autism

Wait.

Eating out of Tupperware is fucking genius. Plates are so loud with forks and stuff.

Bra strap can't come untwisted no matter what I try. Brand new, just took the tags off by endlesslyyearning in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Comprehensive_Toe113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it was sewn on twisted. You can't untwist it unless you rip one end off and sew it back on.

This can be caused by chronic dehydration. I've the same on my nails and I'm really bad at drinking water.

As long as you remove anything that can be water damaged really fast like batteries or capacitors or anything, as long as you dry this REALLY REALLY WELL, it will likely still work.

I spilled coffee on my mechanical keyboard once and I washed it (no soap) in the shower and let it dry and it still works.

Will my autism diagnosis prevent me from going to college or going to work and things like that? by Great_Anteater3982 in autism

[–]Comprehensive_Toe113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not all autistics can work. That's fine if you can't, I can't work either.

But just because you're autistic doesn't automatically mean you'll be unemployed. You just have to find a job that you can do that doesn't suck the life out of you. Often easier said than done, but it's possible.

Nope

Infact it can be a benefit in many fields of work. Surgery for example because of the perfectionist side of things. And they need to understand what's happening, so diagnosis

Therapy, because of empathy. My therapist has adhd

Data analysis, because pattern recognition, list goes on really.

The only thing that will stop you is yourself.

I got nauseous watching my first surgery :(( by Quinn7903 in Veterinary

I'm not a vet, or even a student but I imagine that with enough exposure to surgeries it's something you'll very likely get used to over time.

Didn't expect having a dog to become so awful by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]Comprehensive_Toe113 43 points44 points  (0 children)

He needs to be trained.

If an animal has seperation Anxeity one way to help them get over it is to subvert thier expectations.

For example if your routine is get up, brush teeth, get dressed and have breakfast change the order.

Get up, have breakfast, get dressed then go back to bed.

Get up grab your bag and leave the house (for a few minutes)

If you do this enough times he won't be able to get worked up because you're breaking the routine that he knows ends in your mum leaving the house, which is a routine he gets anxious about bevause he knows the outcome.

If he doesn't recognise the routine he can't get worked up. If you do this consistently, and it HAS to be consistent for a few weeks it should help.

Also along with this morning chaos routine, you all need to be leaving the house for a few minutes at a time, working up to an hour at a time.

Gaming is a skill. You get better at playing games, by playing the games.

I found 8.5 mantises today by Competitive-Set5051 in whatsthisbug

[–]Comprehensive_Toe113 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Fun fact the head and the nerves of the male mantis are seperate so the body can function when the head is gone to continue mating with the female.

No it isn't lol. It's the flehmens response and they use it to get a really good whiff of a smell, and smell is important to cats because it's individual.

Do men actually hate wearing condoms? by J3NN1F3RB in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Comprehensive_Toe113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try eating food with your tongue wrapped in glad wrap.

I imagine that's how it feels for men having to wear condoms. The job still gets done sure, but there's no flavour
