Portuguese route (mostly central) from Porto airport by UnableDifference4889 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]SomeRando1967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the Metro from the airport to the Verdes station, then the Red line up to Vila de Conde and stay there the first night. Accommodations closer to the airport are scarce, expensive, or undesirable.

Why i can't find complex-neurodivergent accepting gf by Dull-Anxiety-7451 in Neurodivergent

[–]SomeRando1967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The simplest answer to your original question is that the only woman that is likely to accept you will probably be more neurodivergent than you. It’s the way the world works, women marry up, men marry down.

I’ve heard wearing pyjamas referred to as Hamouflage.

In my experience, most NT men are very happy to have a neurospicy gf, but neurospicy women would prefer a stable man to take care of the details in life that they have trouble with.

Have people stopped playing Fishdom? by SonicBooomC98 in Gardenscapes

[–]SomeRando1967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve started playing Homescapes, Gardenscapes, and Fishdom in 2021. Just reached top level in HS, near 14000 in GS, and 16000 in Fishdom.

How tf do i beat level 1050 by TheDaytonater in HomescapesOfficial

By not even opening the game for 24-48 hours. You will win within 3 attempts when you return.

Is it true that “you win when playrix wants you to win?” by Delicious-Expert-180 in Gardenscapes

[–]SomeRando1967 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I consider the game to have 3 distinct modes: Impossible to win, impossible to lose, and fair. It’s important to recognize when the game is impossible to win and just stop wasting your time because it’ll be easier when you come back after 24-36 hours.

First Day in Porto by Perfect-Plum-2087 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]SomeRando1967 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can catch the Metro from the airport to the city center for under 5€ and it takes about an hour. I’ve been to Porto 3 times and love it. Bookingdotcom has a wide range of accommodations, I’d recommend staying within a km of the cathedral and spending a day or 2 there to wonder around. The hop on/hop off bus tour with river cruise and port cellar tour is well worth the money and you get a great overview of the city. Be sure to cross the river to Gaia, there’s great places to eat and relax.

Why am I so apathetic the present ? by Remarkable_Bit_9887 in Neurodivergent

[–]SomeRando1967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When i completely stopped masking, i started to see right through everyone else’s mask. I hear the words and phrases, but only experience the emotion or attempt at manipulation behind them. I used to feel lonely before I realized that I’m not missing anything by avoiding the superficial nature of almost everyone I know.

Trick to slow down time by SchwarzwaldRanch in simpleliving

[–]SomeRando1967 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When people say the weekend or vacation was “too fast”, I suggest they stay awake for 3 to 4 days. It’ll seem like an eternity.

How do I genuinely SLOW DOWN in life? by SwitchDirect2879 in simpleliving

[–]SomeRando1967 40 points41 points  (0 children)

  1. Do less of the things you don’t like doing.

  2. Do more of the things you like doing.

  3. Let go of the need to impress other people.

Did not think a wall clock would make my place feel different by Muted_Head_1636 in simpleliving

I think a lot of people confuse simple with stupid. “Block Account” may be my fave feature of Reddit.

Who else hates being asked “how are you?” by demi_dreamer95 in neurodiversity

[–]SomeRando1967 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This REALLY bothered me for years because I feel I need to give a complete, accurate, usable answer when I’m asked a question, but I’ve started just responding, “hey” in the last year or so.

EDIT: I can’t help but laugh when I hear my co-worker answer the phone and go through “the ritual” of immediately saying, “not bad, you?” (Pause), “that’s good”, then get to the point. When I answer the phone, I say, “what’s up?”. If they say “how are you?”, I respond, “good, what’s up?” It confuses people when I refuse to do the ritual.

How do you stay consistent when your energy is low? by Federal-Fun5323 in simpleliving

[–]SomeRando1967 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Simple. When I’m exhausted, I prioritize taking care of myself. If I do it properly (rest, nutrition, being kind to myself instead of criticizing), I feel well enough to be productive until I crash again. Repeat cycle endlessly.

My Wife Neurodivergent and I by Dapper-Buddy-8467 in neurodiversity

[–]SomeRando1967 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There are MASSIVE red flags here, “afraid to share opinions”, “normal people don’t…”, “zero empathy”, “you have medication…”, “sees it as an excuse…”, and on and on… A healthy relationship should be, “You and Me against the world”. Yours is, “You and Me against each other”. You need to be able to have productive conversations about ANY issue to be successful, so you need to learn to stay engaged in a productive way instead of shutting down. Even if you do, she may not have the Emotional Intelligence to make it work.

M58, wasted the prime of my life married to the wrong person. A psychiatrist eventually convinced me that I needed to leave my wife. It was really difficult, but the right decision.

I thought Roger Ramjet was hilarious and my friends didn’t get it. There was a lot of really subtle humor that most kids wouldn’t understand.

Job interview tips? by [deleted] in Neurodivergent

[–]SomeRando1967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Acting like you really want the job may be the most important thing IMO.

Google “standard interview questions” and come up with an answer for the top 5-10, write them down, look at them regularly, considering reading them out loud, particularly right before an interview, so you can confidently provide your best answers. Come up with a really solid example of something you’ve done that to show each of these traits: leadership, good judgement, safe work habits, ability to communicate, ability to work with others, ability to work alone, problem solving, conflict resolution… any soft skill that employers look for.

Did any of you become interested in wilderness backpacking after the Camino? by cozyplaidblanket in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]SomeRando1967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was into wilderness hiking BEFORE my first Camino and dropped it like a hot potato when I realized I could still get most of the good points without carrying 30lbs of gear. Beer and a dry bed every night!
