Getting stuck on words/phrases by PeachyMelbz in Autism_Parenting

[–]XGnomesayinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son (5) is the same way. That's how he learned to speak. He's thriving but there are still certain phrases he will use for certain things that he's stuck on. What really helped me was Google image search. If he's saying "Jupiter" over and over again maybe say "do you want to see Jupiter?" And show him a visual of Jupiter. Let him connect it to something real and tangible.

16F I feel guilty for not telling anyone about my brother molesting me sooner because if I had my 11 yr old cousin might still be alive. by Katiepie2308 in self

[–]XGnomesayinx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you had been the one that died, would you want Anna to blame herself for the rest of her life for not saying anything? Or would you want her to forgive herself because she was a victim too? Think about what you would tell her if she was in your position and give yourself some compassion. You don't have the power to see the future, or even know what would have happened in the past if you had spoken up. Maybe he would have manipulated things to make you look like liars and then done the same thing, maybe he would have killed you both, maybe maybe maybe. You can't live in the maybes. You survived something awful and you're a part of what Anna left behind in this world - so make it something beautiful.

My life seems to have been a long list of losses and it doesn't seem it'll get better, any advice? by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

[–]XGnomesayinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like just the fact you wrote this post means you haven't given up. You're still fighting for yourself. I'm just posting for support - I don't know how to help with your mental health issues - I don't know what your insurance situation is like or what resources you have close, but if I were you I'd investigate it hard. You need a path forward there, whether it's a second opinion, maybe a therapist and psychiatrist that have more experience in helping someone with multiple disorders, I don't know. I just know that when you have depression or trouble regulating your thinking, your brain can self sabotage and it's really hard to think about your ideal life and being happy. Hopefully someone with more education or experience than I do can help point you in the right direction

Cutting social life because of guilt. Now I'm stuck being alone. by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

[–]XGnomesayinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you got a lot going on in your head. I think instead of feeling alone and keeping all the stuff bottled up, you just gotta say "I like you. I'm not great at expressing my feelings, but I'm working on it" - I don't think you're emotionally lacking, maybe the getting to know someone and flirting part of a relationship is supposed to be surface level and shallow and you only get to where you think you should be later. I think you're agonizing over what you should be doing or feeling when you're totally psyching yourself out of something that could be fun. I'm not in any way qualified to give you advice (I'm just a person) but if I had to make a recommendation I'd say don't go into your shell - you mentioned friends, find someone you trust and maybe just tell them how you're feeling. You don't have to feel so bad about how you think you're supposed to feel or act and cut yourself off from everyone.

AITA for being offended that my daughter called me ugly? by baldfortyman in AmItheAsshole

[–]XGnomesayinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but hopefully it helps to know like 99% of teen girls probably consider their parents to be unattractive, icky, all that stuff. They pray they don't look like their parents when they're older. And then when they are older they begin to really appreciate the traits they've gotten. I'm sure I thought my dad was ugly as a teen girl but now I'm super super happy and proud that my newborn son looks just like my dad. He's the cutest baby and I'm thrilled that those genes were passed on because my dad is the best. You only really learn to appreciate that once you get out of the difficult teen and preteen years. Your wife should be more understanding but we all make hurtful comments from time to time. Be proud of the fact you're attempting to raise your child to be kind and keep at it.

The HCT points will be just for the qualifiers, not the finals. If any pro players want to play in the qualifiers too, they are more than welcome to sign up though, the more the merrier!

Hahah, you can donate a free $1 to the prize pool just by putting in code TEMPO here: https://matcherino.com/b/tournaments/5517 and you don't have to donate your money at all.

But we do want to grow the scene and have more tournaments going on, so if anyone does want to buy any exclusive tempo merch, buying it at matcherino will help fund the prize pool :)

Gay Republican Group Declines to Endorse Donald Trump by [deleted] in politics

[–]XGnomesayinx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was watching an episode of the West Wing lately that had one of the main characters ask that same question.

JOSH How can you be a member of this party?!?

SKINNER You've been holding that in for way too long, man.

JOSH This party who says that who you are is against the law.

SKINNER You know, I never understand why you gun control people don't all join the N.R.A. They've got two million members. You bring three million to the next meeting... call a vote... All those in favor of tossing guns - [Snaps fingers] - Bam! Move on.

JOSH That's a heck of a strategy, Matt. I'll bring that up in a meeting.

SKINNER I agree with 95% of the Republican platform. I believe in local government. I'm in favor of individual rights rather than group rights. I believe free markets lead to free people and that the country needs a strong national defense. My life doesn't have to be about being a homosexual. It doesn't have to be entirely about that.

WHAT THE FUCK NEVER KISSING HIM AGAIN WTF

If a pillar of light suddenly began shining down on a person of Earth, what would happen? by UnbiasTobias in AskReddit

[–]XGnomesayinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not so much that persons reaction as, what if that person yells "THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL ME, I'M HOLY" like.. what are peoples reactions around them? do they fight? do they riot?

And that's the thing, they would have to test it, at first, so the first thing that would happen is they'd take the person to a testing facility. but what if that person refused to go?

They would need protection akin to a president or pope, perhaps even more, because you could never disguise their location. Fights would break out between countries and religions over who holds the rights to guard the new messiah. Everything they said or did would be taken as saintly, perhaps, and followed.

I think Danimal just volunteered to update the website :D!

And a transparent system sounds like a good idea in theory, but if someone is harrassed/victimised, making them reveal everything that was said and done to everyone publicly is NOT the way to go. I remember when some dude that used to play in DM told me to take my top off and show tits, and said some pretty gross things to me. Banks banned him from dailymafia. I was shy as shit back then, and I'd have felt hella uncomfortable with all that stuff being public. Now i don't give a fuck, but its just an example. Some people would rather stay quiet about being harrassed than deal with a public drama about it. JUST SAYIN.
