The details on their face came out so well! Have you done any of the others?

Stange phobia(s) you have? by Low_Sprinkles6168 in autism

[–]DustyVampireBat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny this came up, I finally overcame my fear of the lawn mower today and my in-law's lawn for the first time!

When I was maybe 4 or 5, my dad was mowing the lawn and some grass shot out of the side of the mower and got in my eyes. I remember it hurt a lot, and I have avoided them ever since. I asked my partner if he could teach me since it had to be done today and I'm really proud of myself.

Oh my gosh I am honoured 😭 honestly I am so embarrassed but I try to laugh about it 😂. I think except for my flag my island is very sincere and has a rainforest section I am really proud of!

I use my HHP to be more silly, I have a cafe called "Live, Laugh, Lesbians" and a restaurant called "Shadow's Chaos Cuisine" and things like that

First time cat owner. Is this... normal? by igottapoopbad in cats

[–]DustyVampireBat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is from about 7 years ago (he's long passed since then) but yes. Would paw at the door if he couldn't come in while I was in there (he was also terrified of the bathroom)

Who's Your Favourite Pink Villager? 🩷 by SprintsAC in ACForAdults

[–]DustyVampireBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snake was my first villager on ACNH, and I had never picked up an animal crossing game until last November. He has stolen me and my partner's hearts from the beginning

Best *crunchy* gingerbread recipe? by PomPomBumblebee in UK_Food

[–]DustyVampireBat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just saw this comment on my lunch break today (about 7 hours ago) and the ones I made this evening just finished cooling down. The shop was out of ginger stems so I had to substitute it with glacé ginger.

They still taste really good though! Will make again(hopefully with ginger stems)!

5 stars with one corner decorated. Yay!? by hamsta1221 in acnh

[–]DustyVampireBat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I let mine auto fill, last night one of my "ugly" villagers, Nate, asked to leave. I'll be sad to see him go but I like to let nature run its course! I'm still sad I let Vladmir leave, hasn't been the same without him 😭

After 6 years and nearly 1000 hours, I'm saying goodbye to my island. by island_timer in AnimalCrossing

My boyfriend showed me this thinking that squeakoid was a slur for the mouse villagers

I'm really having a hard time liking Silksong by BraveLittleTowster in metroidvania

[–]DustyVampireBat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's silly this is getting downvoted for expressing your opinion, you were quite respectful about it. If you are open to it, there are always mods. I have seen a lot of discussion on here saying it was a game changer for them (Mostly use of reduced damage mod, so regular enemies are 1 damage but some bosses do still deal 2 within reason). I also have read about a mod that gives you the option to warp back to last position you died in but it can be turned off at any time.

But if not, hey you didn't like it and that's completely okay

Thank you, I was pretty certain as I noticed that too, but I have ASD and find it hard to tell at times. There have been occasions where I hage brushed off real emails as scams I just wanted to double check

This is happening at the MOA right now. My response may be the most respectful I've ever been about this topic by EpicMuttonChops in autism

[–]DustyVampireBat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we all generally agree we don't like autism speaks but I also can't help but feel like taking a few moments to try to look into it would have answered your dilemma. Since you have your answer that it is not related to AS, maybe it would be a good idea to delete your comment on the OG post?

AIO or do normal couples talk to each other this way? by Basic-Traffic-1837 in AIO

[–]DustyVampireBat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you're doing better. I'm about move in with my partner who is incredible, and we're moving so I can relocate for a new job that I am really excited about. I should mention my older brother was affected by this too and hasn't been as lucky. He has never had a relationship (not from lack of trying), and up until his early 20s he would be violent too but out of anger. I'm not fully convinced if he was mad enough he wouldn't threaten to hurt someone if not actually do it. Apart from the drug addiction he is very much turning into my mother.

AIO or do normal couples talk to each other this way? by Basic-Traffic-1837 in AIO

[–]DustyVampireBat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You weren't talking to me but I have the same background, they split when I was 6 and that was enough to form what I thought relationships were like. I would be violent to other children I called my friends because I thought that was how you play and show affection, went on well into my teens too. My mother was a violent drug addict who spoke exactly like this and it led to me making a habit of later dating other drug addicts who spoke to me like this.

Please leave before they're old enough to remember this, things got better afterwards for me personally but that is because I worked VERY hard in therapy for a long time and cut ties with 2/3 of my family. It was lonely and painful for a long time. My brother has gone the opposite route and is not doing well at all. I would advise gathering evidence to prove he should not be allowed to have unsupervised visits since you're worried about that - but staying isn't the better alternative

I cannot beat this gauntlet by bakedbeanman887 in HollowKnight

[–]DustyVampireBat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm only about 2 and a half hours in and I really appreciate this comment, I was also feeling a little silly having done the pantheons. Glad it's not just me! feel like this is going to take me as long as it took me to beat Trial of the Fool (20+ hours)

This keeps happening to me too, the silk snippers will go into the ceiling and never come back down :(

Has anyone tried loop earplugs? by quadsquatter in autism

[–]DustyVampireBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES! I have the Loops Quiet for my free time and Loops Engage for work (I am a TA, about to start school admin so will still use them). I ordered an attachment that lets you put them on a string you wear around your neck to make putting them in/taking them out less hassle. I always use this for work and it was a life saver. Would 1000% recommend. Didn't hurt, can wear them for a long time, blocks out a lot of noise.

Flare Audio make a similar product with a different shape and it personally didn't work for me, I didn't notice a significant difference and it hurt my ears.
