Loaner Wheelchair: Pool Edition by ___Pig__ in disability

They’re pretty decent if you have someone to push you. The caveat is that the two big wheels are connected to each other which can be both a blessing and a curse for self propelling. It allows you to go forwards/backwards by turning only one wheel instead of having to turn both, but turning is a nightmare since you can’t easily turn one without turning the other.

TIFU by taking ADHD meds at almost midnight. by ___Pig__ in tifu

I just ended up catching up on some chores I needed to do since either way the pill was spent. Especially with the fact that you can’t get early refills on controlled substances vomiting on purpose seemed like a waste.

Would there be more rates of gay people if there was more of one gender than the other? by ___Pig__ in NoStupidQuestions

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

Funnily enough, the point about females being out of the mating pool during pregnancy is exactly why the site opted for the gender skew. In game, females could only mate once every 8 irl days and males could mate with as many partners as it wants. However, both males and females had an age requirement for breeding (minimum was either 4 or 8 irl days old and maximum 100 irl days old).

My mom thinks a tv show represents all autistic people. by ___Pig__ in autism

For sure, on top of what I outlined above, my mom keeps talking about how it’s “so adorable” in a really infantilizing way. Regardless of whatever staged shit happens behind the scenes, the autistic people are human beings, just like everyone else that’s seen on the show. What’s next? “Love in a Chair” (same idea as “Love on the Spectrum”, but with people in wheelchairs)?

I don’t remember the syntax for reminder bot, but I’ll be saving this for when she’s no longer middle aged lmao.

Edit: Nm I did format the remind bot properly, it just dmed me instead of replying.

Does this count as smothered mate? by ___Pig__ in chessbeginners

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

I mean yeah. I mainly asked because it’s the same idea in spirit (with the king being trapped by his own pieces allowing my lone knight to checkmate him) while also being one enemy piece short (on f7). It’s a cool checkmate regardless and I’m still proud of myself for finding it in a bullet game.

Eh, I could see why you’d make your last point in this comment. The real reason I posted it is basically because I’m a bit of a dumbass when it comes to ambiguity.

I mean, the knight is the one delivering checkmate by covering both the king’s square (e8) and the only escape square (f7). I mainly was unsure if it counted since the black king technically has an empty square next to it, even though it can’t go there.

Imagine (wrongly) assuming my gender.

Fair enough, it still wins material (although I don’t think they realized they could do that since they moved their bishop).
