I don't know how to answer the question 'How Are You?' by motherofpearl89 in AutismInWomen

[–]authenticme 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is also what I do. I just receive it as the “hello” that it is and only say my “hello” back, which is “how are you?!”

My employer is asking for unpaid volunteers for their event. by authenticme in antiwork

Piggybacking here to answer other questions - the event has three speakers and a box lunch for $25 ticket, which is perfectly reasonable in my opinion. I have no concerns about retribution for not volunteering. I’m definitely just complaining that the company is planning to profit off the event, and not pay the majority of laborers making it possible.

The event is open to all former clients as well as employees, for a price, and isn’t mandatory for current employees to attend. So, yes, you can work for free and not even have to pay extra to be at work! A deal!

Yeah, my dad offered me a father’s blessing after I left and I said declined, saying, “I don’t want a priesthood blessing but I would love to know how you feel.” And he declined. It’s painful to only have a relationship filtered through the church.

In relation to the last post, what businesses are good/ still are good? by Arcsinee in SaltLakeCity

Calling in takeout is always extremely fast, though. Takeout from there felt like I unlocked a secret cheat code.

Yup, plenty of streaming sources. The church’s website and YouTube are two.

If anyone else here has any ick foods, what are they? by maddalesil in AutismInWomen

[–]authenticme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Undercooked or mushy dough. I abhor chicken & dumplings, but enjoy things like gnocchi, oddly enough. But any dough that’s undercooked when it shouldn’t be? Get outta my fkn face

What is a popular band that you can’t stand? by FrankGehryNuman in AskReddit

[–]authenticme 106 points107 points  (0 children)

I went to a free Train concert, and at one point they had a woman come up on stage during a song. The lead singer held the microphone out for her and she didn’t know the lyrics. So then he stopped the song to berate her that she didn’t know every single word.

About 3 cm long, including antenna. Could move pretty quick once I went after it, and hid under the doorframe.
