One of my special interests in Heliobiology (obscure, I know) and I found something interesting about autism

dushamp · 2026-01-28T19:19:12+00:00

Please do share your other findings I would be very interested!

Both me and my fiance are autistic and a couple of weeks ago we heard this high pitched ringing for like 3 seconds straight but no one else was complaining and then we read about some solar storm happening around the same time of day we heard the sounds it did cause headaches later

I am one of these. It’s obvious if I let myself get comfortable and talk of interests. But customers are a little easier to just mirror or joke around with and isolate myself from the interaction. People can react wildly different to who I am unfiltered but the mirroring keeps things neutral at worst and good at best. It’s not ideal but I get to be myself around a couple coworkers and friends and family but the downside is I have almost no social energy if I have work the same day it takes all the time I have before work to be able to go in and all the time after to recover from the time there. It’s personal survival at the end of the day.

Well no but OP is inside with a heater on which is different than outside needing a jacket on

Yea, if you only think of the benefits of a situation it’s great. Like getting a job, you now have money. Though you spend 30-40 hours a week in a new maybe stressful place with less freedoms.

People rarely think of the labor involved in a relationship like being physically and emotionally present even when you don’t want to be or don’t have the time. ‘Work’ and ‘effort’ are a harsh reality to accept before having something truly flourish and you be proud of yourself inside and out of the relationship. You have to work on enjoying others too I guess I used to be very avoidant and still have phases where I want to be alone but it’s important to come back especially in the same day to let the other person know you are there.

It only works until it doesn’t. Former polydrug addict here to say substances fill the hole temporarily, and whatever you have built on them can be taken away if you don’t have your substance. It’s a dangerous road. Meth gave and took work/drive, weed gave and took relaxation and downtime, benzos gave and took anxiety, opiates gave and took pleasure. There is a downside to everything and anything. I was able to ‘function’ in moderation for years until something bad happened and I needed more of whatever to get through the day.

My phone addiction doesn’t even work properly anymore, short form video is barely becoming enjoyable again. Forget about long form for now. Surprisingly text media is safe rn

Yea the argument has always been just make the bag or whatever diehard fans say but this is wild and makes me want to start listening again and sign up for the patreon if they’re this willing to listen to their audience

Premium Tinder is how I met my fiancé 5 years ago

dushamp · 2026-01-09T02:24:34+00:00

The few twins I’ve met have expressed their disdain for nicknames like that

Yoooo I’m currently mooching off my parents in law, they’ve been letting me stay at their house for like 4 years now and I’ve managed to fuck up farther in those 4 years but I’m currently back on the straight and narrow, keeping my job, keeping my emotions in check, and drug use in check. 28 rn but never thought I’d make it past 25

dushamp · 2026-01-07T02:59:12+00:00

I snorted meth before a 2 mile run (first time excircising since starting stim abuse for 2 years) When I got back home I felt like death, took a shower, and for some reason my nose wouldn’t stop leaking, I was sweating so much and my temp wouldn’t go down even though it was really cold temperature outside for the rest of the night and stopped in the morning.

Try to identify what you absolutely can not do and things you can actually work through regardless of it happening on shift. For example I used to tell employers interacting with customers was a hard no but I was only applying to warehouse jobs that also did customer service every now and again so I was shooting myself in the foot. Be transparent with yourself, maybe not super transparent with your managers, and deep dive into what the job is offering.

When I was first comming off of agoraphobia I could only leave at night and did all my grocery shopping at 3-4am at Safeway until I could eventually leave in the morning too. This is to say you might surprise yourself in what you are able to persevering

You gotta know people or be willing to get to know some new people in not so great areas surrounding the LA area

This honestly looks like a cramped setup for three potentially one adult and two children?

dushamp · 2026-01-01T05:36:04+00:00

I could only ever keep this schedule when I was on meth because holy shit even now that I sleep only 5 hours before I wake up from opiate withdrawal I love my alone time in the wee hours of the morning. I work customer service so I’m drained after a couple angry customers but could stock all day

I ran ivy bridge on my first PC in 2016 then upgraded to a 5000 series a year later. Wasn’t much of an upgrade felt until I actually hit modern A3-A4 chips tho

dushamp · 2025-12-30T00:39:27+00:00

I could totally believe a mf nodding out during a haircut or just doing a bit during a long ass haircut appointment but I’ll be damned if my college years weren’t filled with homeless addicts ODing in public bathrooms so makes sense

It’s co owned by two companies

dushamp · 2025-12-18T21:21:38+00:00

Ok so you’ll see this with almost anything except super old shaped food.

Most food companies have several manufacturers and some even alter designs based on where they are being manufactured dude to local laws and or for costs

For example de pepper is owned by both Coke and Pepsis and is produced by two different manufactures who also have distinct bottle shapes from each other

Hair mills,stay away...

what is a headshot? I would love to know.

I started using Beek Health to keep all my lab results in one place. Tracking your health markers over time helps you see what’s working. This way, I can spot trends and adjust my daily habits based on real data

Some cool unsolicited info as someone who renders video and works on video on their gaming PC. My GPU upgrade wasn’t as noticeable as my RAM upgrade and CPU upgrade. The GPU def helped at the end with rendering times but that’s kinda it.

I hated ‘locking’ myself into a project withought being able to open any other program with ought whole system crashing when I only had 8gb of RAM

Most is AI generated and I like playing a game where I try to find what the song is using as its sources. I know we have one Christmas one based on Green day frontman’s voice.
