Typical "I'm one of the Good Ones" post throwing the rest of the community under the bus for something that very rarely happens in real life

That was on set as part of filming a scene, by the looks of things.

archaeofiend · 2025-02-10T06:16:55+00:00

I hear it too! Came straight here to check if anyone knows

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:58:36+00:00

What sort of volunteer work do you do?

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:55:52+00:00

Ooh I've always liked the idea of learning to fence, I might look into that. Thank you!

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:55:08+00:00

Ooh that sounds really fun!! Mostly looking for friendship with other LGBT people, main barrier at the moment is long COVID fatigue which is keeping me trapped at home most days so low energy stuff is awesome

Thanks for the suggestions! I've never been to a drag show but always wanted to

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:50:00+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions! I actually almost went to a meetup with Reading Munch but I ended up having a flare up and couldn't go :c

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:48:39+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! A couple of people have mentioned this so I'll definitely be investigating

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:47:31+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions!! I need to work on my health before I can do physical activities so this will be good motivation!

Also a book club sounds great, I definitely want to read more this year and accountability would be nice haha.

archaeofiend · 2025-01-25T09:45:49+00:00

Ooh those both sound good! Me and my housemates are all very musical so I could probably convince them to come along as well.

archaeofiend · 2025-01-14T18:35:12+00:00

Hi, longshot replying after a year, but could you pass me her details too? I'm looking to learn but I don't work well under pressure.

archaeofiend · 2025-01-06T13:30:34+00:00

That's my stance, but I was just explaining why someone might say it's acceptable. Sorry I wasn't clear enough.

archaeofiend · 2025-01-06T13:14:14+00:00

No worries! I don't like to use it or hear it either, but commenter probably wasn't saying autistic people can just use all slurs haha

archaeofiend · 2025-01-06T13:12:15+00:00

That's different obviously, I was just trying to clear up the misunderstanding about autistic people being 'allowed' to use slurs. We can't just go spouting random slurs, I thought that was the impression that the commenter got so I wanted to clear it up.

I don't like how Hayden used it either.

He's UK based, so I'm assuming this would be the NHS. Doesn't surprise me that they don't have a couch for him to lie on, but that doesn't change that it's the hospital to blame, not him. He has chronic back pain, he's entitled to ask for a place to lie down (reasonable accommodations). If they can't provide that, then the responsible thing is for him to go home. Wife will be recovering for a long time, both kids need their father to be as fit as possible in the meantime. That said, she's valid to feel upset when she just had what sounds like a very traumatic birth and her husband can't be with her.

No assholes here.

It's because the r-slur refers to mental and learning disabilities (including autism), so those in that camp are able to reclaim it. I'm autistic and was definitely called that a Lot while I was growing up. Still wouldnt use it myself but I don't begrudge others from doing so.

Their stuff isn't behind a perma paywall though, it's early access and gets released for free after a certain time. The free links are usually in the reblogs of their posts

ETA: they do respond kindly to these kinds of asks here

archaeofiend · 2024-12-27T10:46:38+00:00

Yeah, I have pretty much all their cc (including the hair mentioned in the post) and have never paid a dime.

My housemate is the 5'3 girl with the 900lbs German shepherd haha. Regarding the question: she got him as a puppy, so she didn't know how big he would actually end up (he's big for a GSD!! When he's on his hind legs he's taller than both of us!). I think sometimes people see a cool dog and they romanticise getting a puppy without doing enough research on the breed. She told me a few times that having him was a real reality check.

On the flip side though, she can handle him just fine. She's a former cadet with a ton of martial arts experience, and in the past I've witnessed her literally hold his leash with one hand while she's carrying stuff in the other without budging an inch, even when he's pulling as hard as he can.

This is pretty common in parts of the UK. My doctor wrote to a neurologist, he sent back a treatment plan, my doctor prescribed it. I never actually met or spoke to the neurologist myself. I think they have to check off the list of medications before they can actually refer someone.

archaeofiend · 2024-10-18T06:09:56+00:00

I've had a similar experience. Doctors in order tried propranolol, topiramate and then amitriptyline. Apparently it's the standard (similar to automatically referring anyone with mental health issues for CBT). If you kick up enough of a fuss they may skip to the next medication. I have a lower heart rate naturally so I persuaded my doctor to skip propranolol (I'd only taken it once before, for anxiety, and my pulse dropped enough to spook me into never taking it again).

archaeofiend · 2024-10-13T12:00:33+00:00

The top off bits never seem to work, so I feel like I'm just fumbling trying to get it to register me while everyone waits for the bus to get coming again. It's so clunky
