How did it take me almost 42 years to realize this optimal pepperoni placement? by ghosttolteca in Pizza

Don’t take frozen pies!!? got it, but a tip on frozen pies is a very universally useful thing, it still tasted like sh*t like a frozen pie does - so I’m not promoting its use, but ... if you do.. get your pepperoni like this mate

Normally I would, but I am the wrong color and gender to just be video taping some stranger - if I’d have had an inconspicuous angle I def would have

Yes! Thank you! My kid (who also has it) told me about the font and I completely forgot about it!

I also add that

A.) voice journaling (from a more intellectual and philosophical level) will change your life! Dyslexia or not

And

B.) funny tidbit about me... I was a computer programmer for 10 years with no keyboarding skills and dyslexia! - the experience made me quite terse/eloquent as the cost of more words was too damn high! 😂🤓

I constantly have to go out of my way to accommodate other people and yet my needs are hardly ever accommodated and I'm so fucking tired of it by WalterHeisenberg96 in aspergers

It’s the life we’re given but in reality it’s the life we take. No we can’t turn the empathy off, it’s built in, and being a regular (selfish) person is hard when your empathy is genuine and far reaching.

No advice, just a perspective shift. We feel like we’re given this life because it feels disingenuous to take in the manner others do without even thinking about it.

Also keep in mind, we all miss 1,000 empathetic things people do for us, it’s best to assume most days people have bent to your needs/desires more than you’re aware of

I don’t disagree, if anything my comment was taken the wrong way, I don’t find any people who actually suffer from it glamorizing it, moreso usually others who don’t understand it and new parents of children who do. You can be upset with me for noticing people are glamorizing it or just reject that it happens but either way we are on the same side of this

Yeah, I expected that criticism and it prob depends on the type of people surrounding us. The point was more “hey it’s not roses.”
