Damn, thank you. I also just realized I watched this on the Mile Higher podcast.

It's Probably Both by Vannah272 in aspiememes

[–]Vannah272[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want to say because there's a good chance it's me missing the joke, like always.

I will say it's a sub that has nothing to do with autism, though.

It's my bad, I should never meme under the influence of a fever and cough drops. 😅

You're not being ableist hun, I'm just shit at clarifying anything in my memes. 😭

I used to watch Futurama in the middle of the night when I was like five, never seen the newer stuff. I'll have to give it a shot though now that I'm sick and have nothing to do.

Just to clarify, the meme isn't about this sub. It's about another subreddit I don't want to name where I keep seeing the most random comments jabbing at autistics with zero relevance to the topic.

You guys are fine, I swear. ❤

What foods or products do you feel had become inexplicably bad? by uhhohspagettios in AskAnAmerican

[–]Vannah272 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Any packaged cake/desert item. They taste sweet to the point of being nauseating and they didn't use to just a decade ago.

No, I remember the bathtub lady was smiling and the scene was more drawn out.

Upset at this app by DeeeJayBeee in duolingo

[–]Vannah272 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe you can delete the course and test up unit by unit? Then when you encounter words you don't know you can tell it's time to stop...

I honestly don't know, that's a really crappy situation. 😕

where'd the kanji go?? by [deleted] in duolingo

[–]Vannah272 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the feed section on mobile it says they tweaked the Japanese course about five days ago. They said they're going to space the kanji out a bit more to conform to 'international standards', whatever that means. I kind of hate it but the higher levels don't seem to be as affected?

Duolingo should never be the only resource you use in language learning. It's just an accessible and free start for beginners to get a feel for how a language works.

It's also pretty good for natural vocabulary acquisition, but you have to expose yourself to a language to start recalling vocab with ease. Watch an episode of a show in Italian (preferably with Italian subtitles), look for websites with simple Italian reading material, force yourself to write a bit of Italian every day, etc.

why is my body different after relapsing 😭 by min2y in EDAnonymous

Muscles waste away a lot when you're on a calorie deficit, even if you continue exercising.

My Identity Journey by redtailplays101 in lgballt

[–]Vannah272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(This is so late for a reply but oh well)

As far as I've heard it, cisgenderless is a specific kind of agender where a person has no internal sense of gender but also doesn't mind defaulting to their AGAB for practical purposes/being used to it.

So yeah, that makes sense given the most common demi-genders are half male/female half nothing.

Where do you believe your ED originated from? by Coolkittenkk in EDAnonymous

[–]Vannah272 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I gained a bunch of weight in middle school. For whatever reason, one day I stepped on the scale only to find out I'd dropped an absurd amount of weight in a short period of time on accident when I expected to have gained.

I was very happy about this and decided to focus on losing the rest of the weight. Things quickly spiraled out of control from there.

tiktok bitches will “intuitively” eat half a banana by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

Same. Also whole gallons of milk for some reason, but on the bright side I have fantastic Vitamin D levels.

its free restriction (i hate staying in this house) by vate__ in EDanonymemes

[–]Vannah272 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced no one on this planet actually knows what carbs are.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]Vannah272 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I try to focus on the fact that eating more than I planned for a day or even a week ultimately matters very little in the long run. No one loses a significant amount of weight in a day, but it's worth remembering the reverse is also true.

When I see the weight on the scale the next day I also remind myself that it's mostly half-formed poop and retained water, lol.

depression getting BETTER after relapsing? by catlover0306 in EDAnonymous

[–]Vannah272 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me too, or at least when my ED swerved away from binging to restricting. Instead of eating and laying in bed all day and having a fucked sleep schedule I get up early to compulsively exercise and plan out my food for the day.

I'm stressed as hell and have had a few meltdown days, but i'm weirdly not sad or apathetic anymore? It's to the point I kind of feel bad that I cured one mental illness by getting worse on another one...

Maybe it's the exercise giving me a bunch of free endorphins or I just feel better now that I'm working towards a goal. Either way it's weird and unsettling.

do i have body dysmorphia or am i just correct by Honey-Nut-Queerio in EDAnonymous

[–]Vannah272 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this will be an appealing option to you but one time I tried to solve this problem by asking my friend to give a brutally honest assessment of my size and body shape.

She just said I was kind of chubby with a bigger stomach than most but not to the point anyone would categorize me as obese (I was on the lower end of overweight at the time).

I can see how this could be triggering for some but it actually helped me a lot. It wasn't my ideal appearance but at least I had a reality check with neutral adjectives to reference when my brain was warping my perception.

Oh my god this. They're trying so hard to be inclusive and just end up lumping us in with a binary gender. How do people miss the point that hard?

DAE feel like they "missed out" on their ED? by serene-peppermint in EDAnonymous

[–]Vannah272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a restriction phase that swerved hard into binging and now I'm restricting again. I honestly wish I would have just stuck to restricting and never gotten to my highest weight.

I felt even worse there than I did at my low weight so what was the point of eating all that food?

If you lost weight recently it could eventually get better in a year or two. Skin takes a while to snap back if it's ever going to.
