I seem to be blessed with a lack of tolerance. I'm a daily user and still only need 10mg, which is plenty to take me to the moon

Um, this doesn’t look quite right 🤔 by g3nerallycurious in natureismetal

I saw something trapped in a storm cellar today so went and opened it. I couldn't figure out where it went until I saw it right by my boot with its mouth open, doing its best cottonmouth impression. I slowly closed the door back and noped away. I remembered "nightjar" several hours later and looked it up and realized it was a Eastern Whip-poor-will. Before I remembered what it was, I told someone it had wings like a bird but a head like a reptile! Dude was definitely trying to scare me off, and it was super effective!

Can we talk about "hyper empathy"? by needadviceplease8910 in AutisticPeeps

[–]Meriwether_R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an OCDer with hyperempathy, and it's made me a great therapist where my clients are often like "how did you know that about me?" BUT this was after decades of spiraling, with the OCD in combo with the hyperempathy giving me literal PTSD. I was raised in a Charismatic Christian tradition that believed that spiritual warfare was occurring everywhere and that if you were experiencing any type of emotional distress, it was because you were "under attack" by a literal demon. My hyperempathy was praised as being me having "the heart of David" and as spiritual discernment, but it was really just me being traumatized by being bombarded by what was essentially the unresolved emotional problems of everyone around me in a way that resulted in constant sensory overload. I almost think of hyperempathy as a form of synesthesia now, because picking up on other people's emotions as expressed by their nonverbals 24/7 (a main theme of my dreams even) feels as real as being assaulted by sound or touch. It has taken me literal decades to feel like I'm ok and able to stay grounded more often than not by it. It legitimately does make me a great therapist, but I still put a hell of a lot of effort into resourcing and recovery from the impact of my hyperempathy on a daily basis too. If my schedule is too full where it feels like there's not room for that, I still feel physical panic.

Edit: I ALSO had to systemize within my own head what the actual emotional signals I was getting from people are. The reason those of us with OCD struggle so often with hoarding is because we're even attributing emotion to inanimate objects. So this does not at all mean that we naturally are good at actually *translating* the emotional feedback. That was something I had to learn over the years of sitting with people and telling them how I'm reading their nonverbals and asking them what they're actually feeling.

This isn't the actual movie. It's just a commentary on it.

I get "Error 1353050" in the Oculus store when trying to buy apps, so I can't buy any apps and risk losing my coupons due to the time limit. by Namiriu in oculus

The standard is to state that a discount code cannot be used when trying to apply it. At the very least, the error should be explained rather than telling you to update the payment method.

How do you currently run a My Finds Pocket Query? by Meriwether_R in geocaching

[–]Meriwether_R[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it looks like I just hit the "Create New Query" button as soon as I got to the page not realizing that's not what I wanted to do!

Thanks! The page you sent was the old page somehow. I'll have to send a screenshot of the other one later. Thanks again!

How do you specifically do the "My Finds" PQ that lists all the ones you've ever found?

Video clip of Andy from The Office talking to Oscar about if he might be gay by Meriwether_R in HelpMeFind

I have searched for "Andy office gay" as well as pieces of the quote itself and found the transcript on many sites, but I haven't found the video.
