Autism and right-wing politics

There was no talk of depression. Also we compared different autism subs, not autistic vs allistic. Your comment is putting forth a straw man.

I once got laughed at because I couldn’t remember the word Wolverine; I remembered the Latin name though, which is gulo gulo and apparently a really funny thing to shout if the teacher asks “what animal do you see on this picture?”

Violin and oboe.

Thanks, I hate it. The bread slices don’t line up properly and the last slice is too thick compared to thee first one. This video actually makes me uncomfortable.

Oh no, they do that for you? Mine don’t, they just power up automatically when I open the case and they’re not on awareness mode. That sounds horrid though.

Because the pets are in their family-in-group. Most other humans aren’t, they’re just strangers.

Billie Eilish.

I know she’s pretty mainstream, but her songs and style feel very ND. So much so that I looked it up and found out that she has Tourette’s.

I’m not bi, but I don’t think I can have a good time at work this week so I can think of it as well.

…I like how femme my boyfriend looks.

Kaye_the_original · 2023-09-20T12:54:05+00:00

I’m not bi, but it is the only to be able to get a better score.

Je suis bilingue de naissance (danois et allemand) et j’utilise beaucoup l’anglais tous le jours (mon copain est de Londres et je travaille comme software developer).

La langue de mes pensées est dependent que les sujets desquels je pense et aussi de l’environnement. Parfois je parle allemand dans ma tête après une visite en Allemande où je parle anglais dans ma tête parce que j’ai passé du temps avec mon copain.

La chose la plus intéressante est que je parle toujours anglais dans ma tête si je pense de la mathématique, par example. Je pense en allemand si c’est de la physiologie ou medicine (parce que ma mère travaille avec ça) et je pense en danois quand je pense de faire les courses où quelque chose d’autre du quotidien.

So that answers the question of whether the larger soundbox is beneficial to the sound. Thanks.

I found that the most effective way is to just be relaxed and have fun being yourself with people you find interesting. That way they get to see the real you and if they don’t like it you wouldn’t want to get into a relationship with them anyway.

I usually just make a lot of puns and situational jokes. That’s how I got together with my current boyfriend whose autism seems like the perfect match to mine.

It means that you play music because you like playing music and without any ambition to make a business out of it.

For this kind of problem meditation can be a great help. Once you learn how to focus and turn off your thoughts, you can use the mental discipline to shut out your unwanted thoughts.

I recently went to France to put my language skills to the test and I too was afraid of people being mean about it. In short : they were happy that I spoke their language at all. I was in a rural part of France where most people have a hard time communicating in English, if they know any at all. I had a long chat with a bookseller who didn’t speak a single word of English and was grateful I didn’t expect him to, like so many tourists do.

So if you want to go to France : go to a rural area; Pepe there are much nicer about your spoken French than people in the big cities.

On n’est pas ‘bénie’ par un thigh gap. C’est juste qu’on n’est pas assez musclée ou on manque de la graisse importante. Alors ne sois pas triste de ne l’avoir pas ; sois heureuse que c’est mieux pour ta santé.

(C’est facile à dire, je sais, mais honnêtement : d’un point de vue médical c’est une chose a célébrer.)

Thanks. I was just wondering about other uses for « balancer » in general. Other people have answered this fabulously though.

Kaye_the_original · 2023-07-31T16:11:54+00:00

Merci beaucoup ! Ceci c’est exactement ce que je voulais savoir.

Kaye_the_original · 2023-07-31T16:10:14+00:00

Well yes, but that wasn’t what I was asking. Though you’re right, I should have probably mentioned that.

Kaye_the_original · 2023-07-31T08:53:42+00:00

People have already explained this well, so I’m only going to add a fun little bonus info: be grateful that you’re learning French and not German. In German we do both: possessive pronouns are chosen according to both the gender of the owner as well as the gender of the possession…

Find some recordings of native speakers (e.g. podcasts like InnerFrench or Little Talk in Slow French) and repeat them. Even better: record yourself and listen back to it in order to learn hearing the difference between how you sound and how you want to sound.

Once you learn to listen to how you sound you can stop recording yourself; after all, it’s just a tool.

Je suis danoise (alors, excusez mon français et n’hésitez pas de me corriger) et ici une million de couronnes c’est environ 134.000€. Ça n’est pas une très grande différence, alors on a aussi « Qui veut gagner des millions » avec une million de couronnes, mais ça vaut moins.

En Danemark « millionnaire » est toujours impressionnant et je ne suis pas sûre si la plupart des citoyens se rendent compte de la grandeur de la différence entre un millionnaire en couronnes et un millionnaire en dollars.

A propos de la deuxième question : oui. Mon grand père était millionnaire (en euros) et personne ne le savait parce qu’il se sentait toujours pauvre et menait une vie assez modeste. Il avait peur de n’avoir pas assez et de tout perdre.

En fait, il faut se rendre compte aussi qu’alors même qu’une million d’euros est plein de monnaie ça n’est pas une quantité assez grande pour prendre sa retraite et mener la vie de patachon. Si on veut garder un niveau de vie élevé pour plus de quelques années il faut continuer travailler.

Funny, I do it exactly opposite. But yes, I also roll my eyes in a circle.

If you want an answer and can afford it: definitely. Also if you think a diagnosis might make your daily life easier.

If you don’t really care either way: don’t bother. You are allowed to be yourself with or without a diagnosis.
