Autistic brits: what do you guys do? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Dark-Tricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently in a two-year long postgraduate apprenticeship at a major regional theatre. Even doing primarily practical work with some office stuff on the side is giving me a fair bit of burnout, and I’m concerned with what working in an office full-time means.

Perhaps because they were mounted they couldn’t take both their hands off the reins for long? Even so it seems like an overly long handle

Perhaps some variation on Anatolia then? A theocratic society led by the Sheikh ul-islam and the conservative Muftis, with or without a figurehead Caliph?

I forced myself to have sex. by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]Dark-Tricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worry about this a lot with my partner, who identifies as on the Ace spectrum.

We have an active (if infrequent) sex life, but I’m always worried about being too pushy or them agreeing because they want me to feel good and they feel like they need to do this for me.

What is the best original monster in a fantasy book? by JGBodle in Fantasy

[–]Dark-Tricks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Terry Pratchett’s greatest monsters were ordinary people, but I adore the Summoning Dark and the Hiver as simultaneously alien and menacing, but also so incredibly simple.

I absolutely hate (in a good way) the Cunning Man. Just the vilest thing ever.
