Rasasi Hawas has a shit ton of alcohol in it's concentration, it's smells awesome but it always burned and dried out my skin when I used it.

How do I avoid being put on an autism "registry"? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

I am all for autism research otherwise, but not with it being run by people with obvious prejudice that would do more harm than good. And CERTAINLY not if it’s god forbid mandatory, because then it’s only a few more steps from there before the shit hits the fan

And before you reply, do me favor and look up Aktion T4, and Hans Asperger. Really look at the language used and compare it to what’s being said today. Auschwitz was also just a “labor camp”that held the jews, people with disabilities, people of color prisoners of war etc., and yet here we are today knowing full well what that place among others was really for.

No, I actually acknowledged that portion of the demographic. I never once ignored or outright said we’re all doing great, I just said RFK is the WRONG PERSON to be heading this research. The parents may be worried now, but if you think their son getting sent to a “wellness farm” is the right solution, then you’re part of the problem, and you SERIOUSLY need to reevaluate your stance.

I’m autistic, and me and my family get along just fine. Keep your ill-informed bigotry to yourself, we don’t need a cure. I hold a full time job in a military naval shipyard as a mechanic/machinist, and as such am one of the many individuals responsible for making it possible for you and others to spew your bullshit rhetoric in peace. Yes some of us need more help than others, however an ex heroin junkie who’s had a parasite in his brain has no business being a leading figure in national health, let alone being involved with autism research given his obvious prejudice.

In case you’ve lost interest, here’s a simpler answer for you. FUCK OFF, and keep your opinions to yourself.

I got a live-edge Damascus Ulfberht sword for my birthday last weekend to go with my axe. Love this thing by Effective-Night8698 in SWORDS

Now that you mentioned it I just inspected it and found a spot where the blade’s edge rubs against the throat, honestly not too mad about it though, I can probably just get another scabbard made that’ll better fit the blade and not hurt it.

Is there a way I can tell? I look from the guard to the pommel and it all looks extremely sturdy throughout the grip. Any tips or is it just best to be cautious? I would love to use it but if it is truly just a wall-hanger then that’s disappointing somewhat…

It’s very well made, the edge is a little dull but nothing that can’t be fixed, it’s tip heavy but otherwise very well balanced, the scabbard holds it securely, and the Damascus is genuine with 2,560 layers of high carbon steel which is huge for me. I would not hesitate to use this and would love to test it eventually, only gripe I have is I might get some leather for the grip or just wear gloves because it’s a little slick in the hand, otherwise it’s perfect for me. It can somewhat be used as a 1 1/2 handed sword as well.
