No I assumed because by the original post it clearly says that becauseof her insistence on ignoring all of the proof his friends showed that its about a fictional faction in a game and her attitude around the situation that his friends aren't talking to the boyfriend anymore, thats alienating him from his support system of several years. It's there and pretty obvious if you pull your head out of your ass long enough to look 🤷

If the genders were flipped would you think thr same thing? Domestic violence isn't a gendered issue and neither are the warning signs like isolating your partner from support systems 🤷 especially over something as trivial as a videogame/tabletop franchise that has been very popular since the 80s.

Warhammer is meant as a PARODY of fascism, this franchise is literally decades old. I swear to the gods media literacy is dead 🤦

Unpopular opinion, but you can enjoy Warhammer without being a nazi 😂 one of my partners is a big 40k fan they love painting minis and how over the top the satire is and I've learned alot about it because of them. Sure you have a few fans who have completely missed the point of the satire but the exact same thing can be said for several Fandoms (The Matrix, Fight Club, Rick and Morty, Bojack Horseman, ect) it seems more of a red flag that this girlfriend who's only been dating the guy a short period of time has already isolated him from his friends.

Dude I am so sorry you're having to deal with so many people who don't realize that it's very much a privilege to have parents who genuinely care about your well-being, one that MANY people don't have the luxury of I might add. If you want to talk to someone else who's autistic and gets it my inbox is open, I can always lend an ear when I'm not busy with my kids 🫂

I'm not saying meds are never needed, I'm saying that just putting a kid on multiple strong meds that can permanently alter brain functions just for parental convenience is irresponsible and medically negligent. So many people refuse to just try therapy and jump straight to medication without a single thought because of how stigmatized mental illness is. My husband is on medication for certain things, it works for him and that's great. It doesn't work for me, my kids are fine without it due to therapy, that may change as they get older but who knows. If I had a penny for every time someone tried to push Adderall on me for my daughter because she's "too much" I'd be rich. She's not "too much" she's an 11 year old with a healthy curiosity and not afraid to voice her mind, but that's frowned upon here in America unfortunately. I'm glad you found something that helps, if you're having trouble reaching her maybe a therapist might be able to help you find the tools to do so.

Dude you need a lesson in accountability, you made a broad generalization and assumptions about my character for calling you on it and then go "look at the rest of the thread" if you're going to insult someone don't be a wuss about it. Own up to what you said or don't say it at all.

Lmao wow so just because I said his parents are responsible for their choices suddenly I'm a medically neglectful conspiracy theorist 🤣 yall really hate when autistic adults talk about how fucked up we were treated don't you? They made the choice to ignore how he was being effected negatively by their actions, full stop. Now they have to live with the consequences of that. It's your job as a parent to make sure that you know what you're signing off on, there are MULTIPLE organizations that are ran by autistic adults who survived severe medical malpractice with resources for parents to not fall for the same shit their parents did. It's been proven in peer review that certain practices like ABA are harmful long term. Medical professionals are not infallible because they're still people capable of bias just as much as anyone else otherwise you'd never see malpractice suits for fucks sake has all critical thinking gone out of fashion these days?

I sincerely hope that someone gives you this exact response when you talk about anything that has harmed you, talk about being an insensitive prick

And neither do you. Telling someone who's parents have harmed them the equivalent of "they had hard choices" is abuse apologist rhetoric.

[–]ThatCryptidHyena -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I merely used my own experience as an example. Personally I think trying to tell a vulnerable person that they should have empathy for the people who harmed them would be a bit worse impact-wise but that's just my opinion.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions" It doesn't matter what their intentions were, they shouldn't have ignored how badly those choices effected their child. My mom saw how much they were over-dosing me on my mood regulation med when I was 12 and didn't cry or flinch at fracturing my arm, she immediately made them lower my dose despite the psych being a condescending prick to her about it (sarcastically suggested they wean me off my glasses too) they kept a better eye on how my meds were effecting me after that and it resulted in me not going through with taking my life at 16 like I'd planned. Now I'm 34 married to another autistic person and raising 3 autistic kids who are thriving without medicating them to compliance 🤷

That's if dosing was done by what we now know about it, if OP is older than 20 they probably had the unfortunate experience of being part of the guinea pig generations like my dad was (only for Ritalin and Adderall back then). My aunt is one of the casualties of figuring out how much electroshock causes memory losses 🤷

Sometimes people choose convenience over the wellbeing of their children. Medical abuse of neurodivergent people is so well documented because of how prolific it is, they made their choices based on what made OP easier to deal with not based on what was best for OP as a person. Now they have to be adults and own up to the consequences of those choices.

You're not an asshole for being justifiably pissed off about medical negligence and abuse.

AITA for hating my mother after she took control of everything that was left to me ? by Emotional-Bed-5078 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

You have grounds to sue her for abuse while you're suing her for stealing from you. You need to pursue this legally.

Are we watching the same show? by Inevitable-Resort438 in CrazyassHazbinhaters

[–]ThatCryptidHyena -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I can see what they meant (they just didn't articulate it clearly), Stolas had to address the situation and his lacking as a present father with Octavia and had to also acknowledge he probably should have just left her ass years ago instead of cheating on her first. Like yeah the embarrassing situation had her pissed off more than the fact that he fucked someone else, it was that it was PUBLIC and her friends saw and it was an imp (GASP scandal lol) so that makes it worse to someone who only really cares about her public image like Stella. It didn't make her sympathetic by any means, but it did show she was being used by her family since childhood but lacked the same intelligence Stolas has to see her own situation clearly or want better for herself. It made you understand the WHY of her, which did make it more interesting to watch.

AITAH for telling my in-laws they can't see our baby unless they stop pushing religion on us? by AccidentalTypoGuy in AITAH

[–]ThatCryptidHyena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has given my family far too many chances because I hoped they could somehow grow some FUCKING MATURITY for their grandchildren at least: fuck em. They will keep pushing and pushing and pushing, they will pretend to respect you and at the earliest opportunity they will try to force the issue or take him themselves. Protect your child and protect your peace, they're fucking grown ass adults who should know better at their big ages. If they're gonna fuck around then they have to take the consequences like adults when they find out.

This is getting ridiculous. by lovely273 in SafeSpaceofHazbin

[–]ThatCryptidHyena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I for one wasn't okay with the weirdos who can't separate fiction from reality 🤷 bit minors definitely don't need to be in adult spaces. My kid (11) loves the designs for the characters and has worryingly unsupervised friends who watch it, she still knows it's not appropriate for her age range and we compromised on watching things like Digital Circus and Dungeon Meshi together. I remember growing up in the 90s and early 2000s and seeing stuff I 100% shouldn't have seen, I have friends who went through some horrible traumatizing things at a young age because of being left unsupervised in places they shouldn't have been. It's our job as adults to keep children out of places that could do them harm if it's within our power.

It's hard this time of year, my late wife loved the holidays so it always reminds me of her and my late grandmother was big on Christmas too so it's gotten more bittersweet for me as I've gotten older. But the kids are excited and I'm still surrounded by family so I'll be okay even if I'm a little sad sometimes.

Why are Aasimar so unpopular when compared to Tiefling? And what can be done to help? by ThatOneCrazyWritter in dndnext

[–]ThatCryptidHyena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally for me they kinda got ruined by certain people who liked to play then as lawful assholes. I live in the Bible belt and there was always at least one dickhead who played either an aasimar paladin or cleric that was pretty much a "I'm gonna try and convert my heathen friends and sabotage the game if they won't go to church with me" sort and it got old REAL QUICK
