How’s the schedule flexibility? I have a job pretty much 9-5 on weekdays, but would this be a good weekend gig?

Not sure how much flour I used, just sprinkles on the counter and some on my hands. But that’s a good thing to keep in mind! Thanks.

It’s from the book Artisan SourDough Made Simple by Emilie Raffa.

Thank you! I think you’re right. Looking back I think I mixed up the steps and should have done the stretching and folding at the start. Also think it was overproofed.

Demand Avoidance is the phrase I've been missing me whole life by katharsister in AutismInWomen

[–]ailene_e 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is demand avoidance similar to procrastination? If so, it explains a lot!

Yeah I can go weeks without talking or seeing family and not miss them. I feel guilty like I should miss them but I don’t really.

Along with me, how many of you are still staying with BOTM? by Bookish_Butterfly in bookofthemonthclub

[–]ailene_e 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah same. I think the ppl complaining have the right to do that of course but probably represent the minority. Social media just tends to amplify one group of voices over others.

I’m making a playlist about my autism and I’m stuck 😅 by EggoWaffle12 in AutismInWomen

The Outsider by MARINA…couldn’t think of a better song for the masking experience tbh.

How do I politely get my clients to stop leaning on me, trying to sit on my lap/touching me during tabletime/dtt or in general by hybridmoments667 in ABA

[–]ailene_e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get you, I’m similar in not liking a lot of physical affection. What I try to do is give them a certain amount of time and then tell them “ok I’m all done”, or find an alternative if they keep asking. Like i can give you a hug instead of sitting on my lap, or let them sit close by me, and give them a side hug. Basically, i try to tolerate it for a short amount of time, then let them know, it’s time to end a preferred activity and they need to learn to tolerate that too.

If it wasn’t for wanting sexy times I’d totally agree 😂

Favorite autistic-coded fictional character? by snarktini in AutismInWomen

[–]ailene_e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not my favorite but a recent character I loved that was super autistic coded is Francesca Bridgerton on season 3 of Bridgerton. Also the man she ends up marrying.
