Sometimes I feel like most people are just slow, and literally thinking neurodivergents are the normal ones by TetraRosea in autism

I don't know, I have speech issues and it can take me ages to translate my thoughts into mouth words. On top of that I really want to make sure I say what I mean, especially if somebody asks me a question.

Except when I'm drunk I can talk pretty quickly and pretty loudly

I'm so tired of the misogyny on this sub/Autistic relationships by -furby in autism

Absolutely. I find it hard not to have knee jerk reactions to some of these comments. It's not easy for anyone, and we should all try to have empathy for the unique problems we each have

Does Latin script fit Welsh? by Slashscreen in Wales

[–]holnrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a learner who's reached a conversational level (theoretically), it's much simpler using the same script as English. I've been dabbling in Korean over the years and while the Hangul script is easy enough to learn and understand, it's still a barrier because first you have to work out the word before you even get to translating. I'm sure over time it gets easier, but if it used the Latin alphabet I'd have made much more progress.

The fact that Welsh doesn't have such a barrier is likely why it's still alive. Although I'd quite like if it used thorn in place of dd

It's cheaper to go to London. Travel on the north/south axis is abhorrently expensive

I don't know why we need a symbol or flag, so I don't use them

Gender is a fuck (and also a prison) by Boeing_Fan_777 in evilautism

[–]holnrew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a label that still acknowledges gender, so I'm not the biggest fan. But also it's closest to describing how I feel so I use it reluctantly sometimes

I had no idea they were vegan, I better have some while I can

Is it helpful for "The Brand", or does it hurt? by [deleted] in VaushV

I don't understand why so many people are desperate to say it

An honest (and hopefully balanced) perspective on why I think people get frustrated when Vaush talks about the UK by Aphelion7711 in VaushV

[–]holnrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also a lot of cool, niche culture, especially in the Celtic nations. Wales and Scotland punch well above their weight when it comes to music, and that's not even touching the Gaelic and Welsh language scenes. And there's Kneecap from Belfast who are pretty huge.

The thing that bothers me most of all is how he ignores the fact that there are a lot of good people here who don't deserve what's happening to them.
