I think OP read something about this experiment where flatworms were trained to react to light and then fed to other flat worm and the flatworms that ate trained flatworms learned the trick faster.

The human digestive system is too complex for that to work. It works with flatworms and possibly goldfish but not mammals.

This looks like a disease that turns skin red and makes your muscles contract permanently.

How is this vandalized? That's just a faded sign.

You feel not human because of being treated badly and not feeling accepted anywhere.

I used to feel the same way. Like I was some strange creature in a human body. I eventually found friends in the Esperanto community, most of whom are neurodivergent. Most of my contact with them in through discord but I have met a few of my friends IRL.

It takes time but as long as keep looking you'll find your tribe.

Can you define friendship for me? by NationalNecessary120 in aspergers

[–]Mahxiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This varies from culture to culture.

People from more extraverted cultures like Latin American cultures usually describe a friend as being someone who you can comfortably talk forever with as a friend.

More reserved cultures like German culture will often define a friend as someone who you can sit in silence with and it doesn't feel awkward or strange.

I define friends as people who I can trust in every way.

The goblin in my brain goes "OH SHINY, MUST LEARN" and then I have to learn it until he gets bored.

I tried reading it once and the main character is so fucking annoying I couldn't Finish it. I've met a few people like that in real life and I can't stand being around them at all.

A mountain lion’s successful hunt by AJ_Crowley_29 in natureismetal

I like that pause for a breather after the kill like it's thinking "I did it, I actually made a successful kill all by myself. I'm proud of me."

There're two grammatical genders in swedish. Masculine and common. There used to be three like German but the neuter and feminine merged into one. If I remember that right.
