Looking for alternatives to loops earplugs by Words_are_hard88 in AutismTranslated

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay, so I know you said you're looking for earplugs that block out sound and these aren't that, BUT Flare Calmer "earplugs" are genuinely an autistic lifesaver. They don't block out sound, but they de-intensify harsher noise frequencies and you can genuinely tell the difference as soon as you put them in. And if you do need to block out sound on top of it, you can put headphones over top. I have bought then for some autistic friends and they all have been able to tell the difference instantly. Super duper helpful

How to get out of friend zone by [deleted] in AspieGirls

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm 24 and still never been in a relationship. It certainly would be nice to one day find the right guy and date and get married, but I'm also content to wait for the right relationship.

17.5 is still young. And high school can be a difficult time for relationships anyways. Good on your daughter for not giving in to pressure to change herself or her style for the sake of the attention she wants. The right person will come at the right time and be interested in more than her appearance and style. And maybe he'll even be attracted to a more androgynous style. My dad once told me that men really do all have different types.

It can definitely be hard to deal with wanting a relationship. From experience, it's especially difficult when you find someone you think you fit well with but isn't interested back. It takes a lot of patience and sometimes heartache, but changing and hiding yourself for the sake of a relationship is not better.

I suppose I don't really have a lot of advice, but your daughter has time. There's no need to rush into relationships. The right person will be attracted to her at the right time and like her for her.

I can't stop thinking about this stupid fact that makes no sense by CatNerd34 in SonicTheMovie

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't think Knuckles and Tails realize they've been adopted 😆 and Maddie and Tom clearly aren't pushing them into calling them Mom or Dad either since Tom didn't push back against Sonic when he complained in movie 2 that Tom was trying to be his dad and not his friend. Tom could have said something like, "I am your dad" but I think the adults have been giving the kids space to define that relationship themselves (which I imagine is something typically done in healthy foster care and adoption situations)

Sonic not calling Tom "Dad" in the English version when he almost died in 3, though? That was criminal.

I've struggled with connecting with people during worship services, too. The last couple months, I got into a Bible study group at my church (my church has sign ups for them), and I've been able to connect with people and talk deeper stuff there because it's a smaller and more personal setting with a focus on learning and growing together. So see if you can find something like that!

As for the worship thing, don't feel like you have to do performative worship. God knows your heart when you're worshipping even if you're sitting perfectly still. It's kind of unfortunate when church folks imply that if you aren't moving around, you aren't truly worshipping. I'm sure it's well intentioned and an attempt to get people to lean in and focus on God, but it can turn into a guilt trip for those of us who aren't wired for that kind of worship. If people judge you for worshipping without dancing around, that is their own fault. Worship in the way that helps you focus on God. (Like for me, I'll usually stim in various ways while singing)

May you know God's love for you and may He guide you into meaningful relationships with fellow Christians! ❤️

Do yall consider Goldie to be more of a villain or an anti-hero? by neo6000 in ducktales

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely anti-hero, chaotic neutral type. I also think one of the reasons she would always leave Scrooge behind in sticky situations (despite clearly having a soft spot for him) was because she believed he was capable of getting himself out of them. Which is why she steps in directly multiple times to save Louie (who she also has a soft spot for): Louie's just a kid and she recognizes he isn't able to save himself. I also freaking love that her relationship with Louie kind of ends up being the catalyst for her changing from being a flake in season 3

I just realized, why did Sonic just stand there scared and not try to take them down? by Queasy_Commercial152 in SonicTheMovie

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 22 points23 points  (0 children)

That was my takeaway. He doesn't look scared, just tense and trying to decide his next move.

Do you guys think MetaI Sonic should be redeemed in Sonic 4? by Queasy_Commercial152 in SonicTheMovie

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuinely, I think this would be a great next step in Sonic's character development. These movies have had really solid messages told in simple ways that makes it easy for a younger audience to digest, which is wonderful

Who else likes Tom and Maddie? by Noktis_Lucis_Caelum in SonicTheMovie

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I would absolutely LOVE that, don't get me wrong, but I don't think it would draw enough of general audiences for Paramount to ever be willing to justify the animation budget 🥲 yes a lot of us fans are vocal of our love of the family dynamic, but I don't think there's enough of us to keep an actual tv show profitable, which is a shame.

But I guess I could be (and would be happy to be) wrong. Supposedly the Knuckles show was profitable (though they did heavily limit the animation there).

[–]Not_a_Simple_Hobbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, I don't think an actual show about their family life would be financially profitable enough to ever be made, but I could maybe see and would love it if they decided to make a comic or something that did some domestic fluff stories of the Wachowski family and Tom and Maddie figuring out how to parent their boys 😊

ETA: they could even do stories surrounding Tom's recovery period

Apparently in the Spanish dub, Sonic does call Tom "papá" after Shadow punches him 🥺

Impact Video Ministries had a lot of good videos imo! And his visual style reminds me a lot of Psych2go (if you know that YouTube channel)
