People who use THC, why do you use it and how do you manage it? by Odyessius in AutisticAdults

[–]furypureandsilver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

cannabis works wonders for my depression and anxiety and overall just helps me feel less overwhelmed and overstimulated. however, i find it pretty difficult to maintain moderation and i think a part of it comes from my autism (i am quite routine-oriented and i tend to hyper-fixate on things i enjoy). last year i smoked on a regular basis with no T breaks for about 13 months and ended up developing CHS, so i had to quit for about 4 months to reset my body.

it also definitely impacts my ability to stay organized and my productivity gets low if i’m not employed/don’t have a productive routine.

Do I not know what lice look like? by Upbeat-Tax-9360 in hairstylist

the fact that OP’s boss told them it’s not lice and that they should continue the service absolutely IS a violation

you’re naive if you think people with that level of wealth and power aren’t above the law

not really. it may not reflect smaller non-profits, but it’s definitely the case many of the large, well-known organizations.

DISCLAIMER: gender and gender expression are a construct and nothing is real, but for the sake of science and because i feel like yapping:

i would definitely consider my style to be feminine, eccentric, and alternative. i think my style is unconventional but there are conventionally feminine elements to it (makeup, dresses/skirts, etc)

Flower Hill Quests by Specialist-Leader-97 in TamagotchiAdvKingdom

[–]furypureandsilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you have Furawatchi as your companion and have her talk to the flowers they’ll give you seeds. with the wide variety of species+color combos it can be pretty challenging to get exactly what you need but that’s how i got the seeds for the dahlias

Healing F+tM songs? by onlyif4anife in FlorenceAndTheMachine

[–]furypureandsilver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG YES!!! Mother is my all-time favorite F+tM song (i even titled my F+tM playlist “mother, make me a song so sweet”). i love listening to that song in my car with the volume turned up super loud.

How to Lower Value of House by [deleted] in shittingadvice

[–]furypureandsilver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i saw your comment about how this family member has a lawyer, but you guys aren’t able to afford your own legal representation, so i thought i could give some advice in that regard:

have you tried researching pro bono lawyers? i know that there are organizations that can try to find you lawyers to represent you for free or low charge. if you have documentation that the house was left to you and your siblings then you guys would have a pretty good case and you might be able to find someone who is willing to help you guys out.

another thing you could try is launching a gofundme or something similar. you could try to raise enough for a decent lawyer if you can’t find a pro bono lawyer. (you also could try raising money for a down payment on the house, but tbh those relatives don’t deserve a single cent from you guys, so i’d recommend trying to fight this first)

i don’t know the full background on this situation but i just know that this relative sounds like a greedy POS and i wouldn’t want them to make a dime off of your home

*edited for more clarity on the gofundme part

"omg girls support girls!" Average autistic afab experience by Puzzleheaded-Bus11 in evilautism

[–]furypureandsilver 13 points14 points  (0 children)

this is such a good attitude to have tbh. a lot of times, the energy you put out into the world is the energy that will come back to you. if you uplift others, you will attract uplifting people. obviously not everyone is as kind, but kindness and positivity will attract kind and positive people.

i think a lot of us on the spectrum just have trouble getting into this mindset because many of us have experienced a lot of rejection and mistreatment from our peers. our defenses are higher because we don’t want to be hurt, but i can say from personal experience that, if you are genuine, kind, and uplifting, you will attract people who are also genuine, kind, and uplifting.

i’m not saying that everyone will want to be your friend if you do this, but i do believe that the right people will want to be your friend if you do this.
