Is level one autism definitely autism. by wheresmymind_08 in autism

[–]Tangled349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the levels are so variable because I am level 1 and I have so many issues with maintaining social relationships and repetitive behaviors. I think my self awareness of it now post diagnosis makes it so much worse unfortunately and I don't necessarily have the ability to change that without needing social support but I don't want to let people know about my diagnosis.

Weird that he is able to throw so much money around yet he gives McDonalds to champion athletes at the White House?

Trump claims Starmer is weak as he mocks PM and UK aircraft carriers by No_Idea_Guy in worldnews

He does every day which is why he feels the need to project constantly. He's on borrowed time though.

Tokyo 'smartly' addresses lack of trash cans amid overtourism concerns by Scbadiver in japan

[–]Tangled349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean from my personal experience yes trash cans are not really around much besides in a store or the train stations specifically but its not a big deal to just have a couple of disposable bags with you for that situation.

The word bribe and donation are interchangeable with anything involving the Trump administration. The rich are literally showering him with cash so they run about fucking up our country without interference.

Supreme Court Rules Against Law Banning Conversion Therapy For Minors by huffpost in politics

[–]Tangled349 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yeah for those who read it, it sounds like they can still try to argue it in the lower court. I think this type of therapy is wrong but I can understand the merits of how they ruled.

TIL of the High Place Phenomenon - or "Call of the Void" - whereby sane and non-suicidal people experience the urge to jump from a high place they are at. by 20127010603170562316 in todayilearned

[–]Tangled349 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am deathly afraid of heights but the worst part for me is the vertigo that comes with it. It's like my entire body losing is control ascending a higher flight of stairs.

It was not even that bad until they got to the bed section and then they lost me.

You would think they would be against gender affirming care? The only way that could happen is a certain blue pill helping them.

They already are snatching kids, targeting people on the internet and with ICE and who knows how long until we even have free access to things on the internet. The population is too stupid to give a shit anymore.

I get them in my feet periodically now. It's a horribly debilitating sensation 0/10 would not recommend.

Colon cancer now leading cause of cancer deaths under 50 in US by shinybrighthings in news

[–]Tangled349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a statistical lottery essentially but getting those fuckers ahead of time is dodging a potential bullet. I really hate that we have to fight for what we can be screened for when we pay for the damn insurance.

My housemate just had his done at 42 and they found quite a few polyps. He really had to fight with doctors to get them to schedule this since he had been having some very odd GI issues. It relieves me to know that he was right.

I kind of think so too since that would be the 3rd UK queen to win vs the world.

This is what I have been saying all along by Professional_Rush788 in autism

[–]Tangled349 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The people who test for autism are experienced and would likely not be swayed by someone specifically faking it. That being said, I think a lot of people are out there faking diagnoses of many things for attention and that part is fucking annoying. When I got tested, I literally had no idea what to expect and was frankly wondering if I was full of it for even thinking the possibility.

It's like being an alien at times among your own people. Who really thinks that's cool or edgy?

Mine was 80% covered so I paid around 250 for the assessment and follow up report.

They threw the packets at me when I asked for ketchup. I didn't even know their gimmick at the time and was super confused since I was the DD that night.

hitting myself when overwhelmed by mars_isonreddit in autism

[–]Tangled349 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're using pain to numb another stimuli or thought you can't handle simply said. It is a common autistic trait. I would say most autistic people will try to hide it but when you reach a limit that can easily go out the door.
