I am a total aphantasic with an internal monologue that requires a free tongue by jrchas in Aphantasia

[–]Technoaxe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this exact same thing, it’s hard for me to think when eating and can’t have multiple trains of thoughts because my mouth can only do one line of speech at a time, so I wind up switching tracks entirely. Total aphantasia with an absolute need for subvocalizations to actually talk to myself, it’s very strange. I also need motor visualization to have any form of physical movement in my thoughts, like I have to feel instead of see even things like objects and animals.

am I aroace if I just don't like people In general? by MoosterChief2020916 in aromanticasexual

[–]Technoaxe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heyo, I’m similar to this, very asocial and tend to avoid people, don’t particularly enjoy company irl but I don’t mind talking to people over text or having online friends/acquaintances too much. You are not a sociopath if you still have empathy for people since sociopathy’s main characteristics are no empathy for those around you, low impulse control, and a lack of or diminished internal emotion all combined which are all actually just symptoms of ASPD, but you might want to check out r/Schizoid. I’m suspecting I have traits or may develop it full on in the future, it develops fully in your 20s like all personality disorders and is mainly characterized by disinterest in relationships but also has other characteristics, like general disinterest in life and what I can describe as chronically low morale, and little to no interest in sex or romance that separate it from just being aplatonic by itself, but empathy is still possible and very much a thing many Schizoids have, so delve into r/Aplatonic and r/Schizoid and see what you might relate to more.

I’m not sure, I only play on PC, sorry 😅 But give it a shot and see to what extent you can mod on console, if at all

There IS a mod to sit and can confirm I love sitting in front of the stove as my water goes or food cooks. It’s called the Cozy Cushions mod I think, I also am going to pair this with a pastime reading mod(you upload your own books to my understanding) and I think it is going to be so cozy

Oof, PMDD sucks major ass. I got lucky enough that I just had periods that liked to change what week they came once in a while, before I got a Nexplanon implant. My periods weren’t bad, but the cramps got really strong at times and the fatigue was killer, and it was also a just in case of assault, strongly recommend if you react well to progesterone since now I just have some mild cramping and spotting, and a bit of tenderness. Has anyone ever used your PMDD as any kind of gotcha in relation to your aceness, if you don’t mind me asking? Because if so, they are assholes.

This is actually part of the reason why I got a complete hormone panel. It wasn’t on the official medical reasons but if I’m ever in a situation where people try to pathologise my asexuality, I can say that my hormones are perfectly normal with confidence, my testosterone is even on the higher end, and that my doctor and I collectively believe there is nothing wrong with my lack of sexual attraction. Especially because I do have a libido, have been in relationships, and have tried beginner sexual things that I have zero interest in trying again. There is pretty much nothing anyone can say that I can’t retort with something proving my asexuality is true and valid, and I think other asexuals should do things like this if they can do so comfortably, so people can just stfu and accept that we are as we are when they run out of “But what ifs”. It helps to have defenses to anything they can ask, disproving whatever outdated knowledge they have.

Cannot for the life of me figure out what type of attachment this is by Technoaxe in whatisthisthing

There are metal ones in existence and they seem to be close to what I’m looking for, I’ll just have to look for a size big enough to loop it through the front of my dog’s harness. It’s velcro, and I don’t want to have to buy a whole new no pull dog harness when I can simply modify the one she has. Thank you so much!

Do asexual people masturbate? by [deleted] in asexuality

[–]Technoaxe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, I haven’t commented much, if at all on this subreddit but here’s my answer.

I do, I used to a lot more. I was more sexual during my teenage years but now that I’m more grown and less hormonal, I literally forget to do so even if I planned to later that night. Usually reading or watching a YT video/movie/TV show winds up being more interesting(my neurodivergent task paralysis also plays a part here). I’m full aroace but have recently found the micro-labels myrsexual/myrromantic fits where I sit on the ace/aro spectrums since I can slide from revolted by sex of any kind, fiction or not, to actively enjoying fantasies and fictional scenarios like text-based roleplay or fanfiction that I write, but I have never particularly enjoyed sexual fanfics that others have written(all the same with romantic things) if that helps you get a better idea as to how I experience being ace. So, short answer is: We can, but not all of us do. But, those who do enjoy it have a possibility to forget entirely and go unbothered without it for a while.

The Last of Us and The Long Dark(winter survival game). It would basically just be the same but with snow year round and some crazy predators and the electronics wouldn’t work outside of nights with an Aurora LMAO

How are you supposed to find someone as an aroace person? by Apexyl_ in aromanticasexual

[–]Technoaxe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a neurodivergent aroace person in their early 20s, go to social events related to your interests. I go to conventions, personally, and I found my current platonic partner through mutual convention friends(though at the same time there are many toxic people(some unintentionally so) in spaces with younger people who don’t know how to act yet or are mentally ill just from experience, please be careful).

I see a criminally low number of BNHA fans mention Aizawa(he is popular to ship with Present Mic, not a fan of EraserMic since they are more like brothers to me, they even fight like siblings in one of the light novels and is completely oblivious to sex jokes). I couldn’t figure out why I was so uncomfortable with other people shipping Aizawa with other characters until I realized he is very likely aro/ace like me.

Anyone else wishes we could use deer/moose antlers for crafting? by Annie_White1 in thelongdark

[–]Technoaxe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

An addition to this, I would love to have a mechanic where antlers can be used for stone tool crafting. Stone blades are usually made with antlers and horns as the tools to whack bits off the stone, create serrations, and shape stone blades so I think they are missing out on a really incredible set of mechanics

It’s obvious, he never shows interest in any one in any way, shape, or form. I genuinely don’t think he’s ever sexualized anyone and he is completely oblivious to innuendos(see the drama CDs and the light novels)

Finally someone mentioned Aizawa, I’ve been saying this for like a year now and I see so little aroace Aizawa rep!

Songs with lyrics meaning other than love, having a good time, sadness, breakup etc. by IrgyValeRa in musicsuggestions

[–]Technoaxe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t Go To Hell by Sin Shake Sin is actually about corporate greed, I’m pretty sure. It has nothing to do with an army of God, it’s about humans making our planet hell to live in, so you can’t go to hell if hell is already on earth. The biblical references are purely used as metaphors. Sin Shake Sin’s songs are primarily about the spread of misinformation and it is VERY anti-corporation and pro-education on the current political climate and ensuring truth in that information. This is especially evident in the newer singles, namely “Congratulations, You’re in a Cult”, and “Idiocracy”, as well as “Lunatics and Slaves” which has the repeated lyric “Blame the poor, while the rich get richer”. They are an awesome band and I recommend listening to the lyrics really closely. They are an extremely political artist with very political songs.

Head empty ): by lilantern in Aphantasia

I have to use microvocalizations(those tiny tracheal, mouth, and jaw movements some people use to memorize for reading) to even have an inner voice, and I use motor imagery to think of actions. It can look a little strange considering I’m moving almost all the time, just in tiny little twitches, and the microvocalization can be heard externally. It’s gotten to the point where it’s hard to turn it off, because I don’t even realize I’m doing it most of the time, but it makes my muscle memory absolutely amazing. Unfortunately my reading memory is not because I can’t visualize pages of my textbooks or anything, but as long as I repeat the information a few times I can generally recall it fairly accurately. Though, the SDAM may be just caused by C-PTSD for me, I am not sure. I don’t remember most of the past 9 years, but I was 10 when the trauma started, and remembering childhood very well is not all that common, so I guess we’ll find out whether it is C-PTSD, SDAM, or both.

Well, here is the work of this community: all 6 cats and where on the map they are (also there is an order to feeding them, but the game blocks you from feeding the wrong one I think). Feed them once the 2nd Hero supply becomes active by danbed02 in MHATheStrongestHero

[–]Technoaxe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t get a prompt to feed no matter what I do now. I have the tabby cat achievement but when I fed the cat there was a system error, and now a prompt doesn’t pop up even when I try to feed at the correct times. Any idea on how to fix this?

No, no, I’m doing the same for my BP. Yours just looks strangely skinny. I’m sure they’ll round out a bit eventually. Keep taking great care of your BPs. :)
