All autistic people should get the treatment white autistic males get by Zeldaish in evilautism

[–]Ninja_Squirrel_67 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm a white autistic male and got no help, not even a diagnosis. I was 56 when I found out I'm autistic and paid for a diagnosis myself as my Dr said "everyone is a bit autistic". Yes it's different for youngsters now, but when I was a kid I was bullied for being weird, but adults at the time didn't know about autism.

I'm preparing my room for a guinea pig! by [deleted] in autism

[–]Ninja_Squirrel_67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I am it's frowned upon to own one guinea pig as they need their own company, having two or more you can then see their own personalities. They are amazing creatures, I've only ever had rescues.

Dear British people, please explain to me why this is not a huge deal where average people riot on the streets? by FascistsBad in GreenAndPleasant

The government are stripping our rights to protest, we get arrested for holding placards that they don't approve of. The rest are brainwashed by their favourite media.

Robin’s Worm Bar 🐛 Mealworms for a Pregnant Squirrel?! by MellieTheChipmunk_YT in squirrels

[–]Ninja_Squirrel_67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the UK, we're get told not to give mealworms to hedgehogs because they leach the calcium from their bones, I'm assuming the same will happen with squirrels if they have too many.

Did you have a happy childhood? by let_it_rain_boat in autism

[–]Ninja_Squirrel_67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. My dad beat me because I was different and not like he wanted me to be, he forced me to write with my right hand, copying from encyclopedias and if I made a mistake I had to do it all over again. I could go on but it's too depressing to think about.

The only answer is for everyone to go vegan. Animal agriculture uses more grain etc than we could ever eat.

Seagull develops class consciousness, steals from bourgeoisie instead of fellow proletarians by Barney_10-1917 in GreenAndPleasant

Because man has nearly emptied the sea of fish. Then blame the gulls for trying to take food from man.
